You can bake a perfect tricolor layer cake with many variations to make your Independence Day celebrations even more memorable. Here are a few ideas you must try.
1. Tricolor Layer Cake
Prepare a classic tricolored layered cake with three layers of orange, white, and green. For the orange layer, use carrot cake or cake swirled with mango puree, for the white layer, use the plain vanilla cake or you can even make the white layer with thick buttercream frosting, and for the green layer, bake a spinach or matcha cake. After baking, stack these layers with thick frosting and decorate with mini flags. For healthier options, you can make the cake with almond or whole wheat flour. For the sweetener, substitute sugar with coconut sugar or jaggery. Top the cake with pistachios and edible flowers to make it more appealing.
2. Tricolor Swiss Roll
Bake an elegant swiss roll cake with the appeal of the tricolor flag. Swiss roll gives the elegant vibe of a gourmet dessert with the sponge cake rolled with the thick cream within. By bringing the tricolor flair to the swiss roll cake, you can make it even more elegant and filled with the patriotic spirit. Bake the sponge cake into three colors and then roll it together with cream in the middle. For the cream filling, you can use vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. For icing, dust it with powdered coconut or make rosettes with colored whipped cream.
3. No-Bake Tricolor Cheesecake
Cheesecake brings a smile to every face. The visuals of a gooey cheesecake will make you forget about every stress in your life and will immediately make you want to try it. When the cheesecake is made with the colors of the flag, the Independence day celebration will become so memorable. The best thing about cheesecake is that you can make it in both baked and no bake versions. For the orange layer, use mango or papaya blended with some soaked cashews. For the white layer, use coconut cream or vanilla ice cream. And lastly for the green layer, again you can use pistachio cream cheese paste or just blend in some matcha powder. You can layer it in a springform pan and freeze it overnight to serve the next day or you can also layer it in serving jars directly for minimalistic presentation.
4. Tricolor Cupcakes with Swirled Frosting
Cupcakes are the best for individual servings. You can try various flavor options with cupcakes and make them in different colors instead of worrying about layering the colors. For the cupcakes, you can divide the batter into 3 parts, color one with mango, and one part with matcha, then you can either pour the different colored batter into each mold or put it together in one mold and make a marbled presentation. Top it off with tricolor whipped cream frosting and decorate with a small flag on top.
