Instructions

  1. Prepare cake in a 9×13 pan according to package directions. Cool and poke the entire cake with a fork.
  2. 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.
  3. With a hand mixer, mix softened cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Add whipped topping. Spread over cake.
  4. 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.
  5. If making an American flag, create a blueberry rectangle in the top left corner of the cake. Cut strawberries in half and place in rows.
  6. Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
