Instructions
- Prepare cake in a 9×13 pan according to package directions. Cool and poke the entire cake with a fork.
- Add 1 cup of boiling water to the jello mixture and stir until all powder is dissolved. Stir in ½ cup cold water. Gently pour over cake and refrigerate 4 hours.
For the Topping
- Mix softened cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Add whipped topping. Spread over cake.
- Create a blueberry rectangle in the top left corner of the cake. Cut strawberries in half and place in rows.
- If making a Canadian flag, cut the strawberries from top to bottom to make a triangular shape. Use the image in this post as a guide to create a maple leaf shape and place strawberries along the sides of the cake to resemble a flag.
- Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
Notes
- Serving Tip: Cut the cake into squares once the Jell-O has set, before adding the cream cheese layer. When you reach into the cake with a spatula it will naturally lift where you’ve already cut it, making it easy to serve!
- Leftover cake can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days. Remove berries & freeze portions by wrapping them in plastic wrap and then putting the portions in a zippered bag. Thaw and serve.
