The most patriotic day of the year has arrived! And we are ready to celebrate the 4th of July with 2 baking ideas that will make you shout: USA, USA. Do you know the history behind this holiday? We summarize it a bit for you and share the ideas at the end of the article.

The celebration began on July 4, 1776, when the Declaration of Independence was adopted in Congress. This allowed the colonies to separate from Great Britain, becoming the sovereign country it is today. As time went on, the date was chosen to celebrate the freedom and independence of the American people.

Now that we have reviewed a bit of history, we have 2 creations that we want to share with you. With video included! So you can prepare them on this special day.

4th of July Cookie

On this special day, you only need 2 gel colors: Royal Blue and Super Red. We demonstrate this with our 4th of July cookies! All decorated with ENCO's Royal Icing and painted to resemble: the shape of the country and the American flag. We leave you with the complete step-by-step video by clicking here.

4th of July Cake
