- We love how easy this vanilla sheet cake recipe is to make, plus we’re using a shortcut – frosting right out of the tub, and fresh fruit on top!
- No messing with making frosting! Of course you can make your own frosting if you want, but if you’re wanting simpler, faster, because you’re busy, busy or just not wanting to go through the motions of making frosting…we recommend using Miss Jones Vanilla or Miss Jones Cream Cheese Frosting. It’s already prepared and it really tastes good when it comes to already prepared frostings out there!
- For the flag on top of the cake, we used sliced strawberries and blueberries and some white chocolate chips.
