4th of July American Flag Cake
Vanilla Cake - Make one blue cake with food coloring. Make two white cakes then slice both in half so they are thin. Red velvet - Make three red cakes and slice thin. Thin Layers - The Blue layer is full height out of the cake pan. The Red and White layers are sliced thin so that a stack of 3 = a little less than the height of the tall blue layer.
