The most celebrated holiday of the summer is fast approaching. If you are hosting people or attending a party, check out these 5 delicious and colorful 4th of July desserts to try for your celebration and for TikTok Tuesday.
4th of July cuisine is known to be casual, comfort food. There are lots cookouts, beach and pool parties and more. Savory foods get a lot of attention. From the grill to the smorgasbord of side dishes and salty snacks.
But don’t forget about the sweet treats. Sure you can put out a tray of red, white and blue cookies or store bought cupcakes. However, with a little effort, creativity and help from social media, you can make something that is sure to impress your friends.
Colorful 4th Of July Desserts
You can never go wrong with ice cream. It is the quintessential summer dessert choice. However, you can still crank up the churn or stock the freezer and make one or two of these recipes as an accompaniment.
All incorporate red, white and blue colors. Some use dye, others use colored sugar while the rest use fruit in the appropriate colors. Not all are laden with fat and sugar either. There are a couple that lean to the more healthful side for anyone watching their bikini bods.
Recipes are one thing I like to look at on social media feeds. Not all are good, but at least they get me thinking and inspire some creativity in the kitchen. These should do the same. If there is an element you don’t like, think of something to swap out.
Everyone loves a good dessert. Especially a patriotic one. These are some of the ones that stood out in my feed this week.
