Ever since I saw this picture, I’ve been obsessing over vibrantly colored cake batter. What better excuse than a 4th of July gathering to experiment. I gave the batter a light lemon flavor with zest and extract. The frosting was just vanilla, mainly because I ran out of lemon extract. Strawberries and blueberries on top rounded out the red, white and blue theme. All in all, it was a hit. I need more excuses to bake cakes. Excuses that involve it not being left in my house.
