For a richer flavor, consider using a cream cheese frosting instead of whipped topping.
To prevent the cake from becoming soggy, assemble the shortcake shortly before serving.
Get creative with the fruit arrangement! You can add raspberries for extra red, or use a star-shaped cookie cutter to make strawberry stars.
For an extra layer of flavor, brush the cooled cake with a simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water, heated until sugar dissolves) before frosting.

    This recipe was so easy to follow and the cake looked amazing! Everyone loved it at our Fourth of July party.

  • Bridgette Price

    The whipped topping was a bit too sweet for my taste, so I used a lightly sweetened cream cheese frosting instead. It was perfect!

  • Gussie Toy

    I used a homemade vanilla cake instead of a mix, and it was absolutely delicious! The fruit arrangement was a fun way to get the kids involved.
