With the Memorial Day weekend upon us, I thought we’d have a little red, white and blue fun today. We’re taking a look at some of my favorite patriotic ideas from the blog and around the web. So in an effort to get to this holiday weekend started NOW… let’s dive right in to the sweet stuff!
1. Make these easy Mini Cheesecake Shooters topped with puff pastry stars. Recipe HERE.
2. Learn to make fondant pinwheel cupcake toppers with patriotic flair. Photo tutorial HERE.
3. Celebrate with these gorgeous Red, White and Blue cakes! See them all HERE.
There’s nothing better than a long holiday weekend! I seriously love holidays and everything that goes with them. What could be better than a long holiday weekend celebrating with family and friends? If you’re still looking for that perfect dessert to take over to the BBQ, hop on over to my Red, White & Blue board on Pinterest. It’s filled with amazing star spangled sweets, created by some of my favorite bakers around the web!
So what’s in store for your Memorial Day weekend? My big weekend plans include a batch of cupcakes for the neighborhood get together. Most likely to include blueberries in some form or fashion. A morning out at the beach with my favorite sand castle builders. And a fresh coat of paint for my home office. Something light, bright and inspiring!
Wishing you a safe and happy Memorial Day! I’d love to hear what you’re up to this weekend!
