The 4th of July is coming up and my boys are so excited.  I’m excited about barbecues, parties, yummy food, and red, white, and blue desserts.  They are excited about the Fourth of July fireworks.  It’s all about being safe and having a good time. Somehow everything will all come together.

But for me, the Fourth of July celebration it’s all about the food and decor.  I love fun projects that bring celebrations alive.  And I have a sweet tooth.  So, I’m on a mission to find an easy red, white, and blue dessert, like an American Flag cake or white cupcakes with red and blue sprinkles. I love anything with fresh strawberries like strawberry shortcake.

I found some mouth-watering 4th of July Dessert Recipes to celebrate Independence Day. Check out these decadent patriotic desserts. Some sweets are quick, simple, and healthy and some dessert recipe ideas are not so healthy. It’s all in moderation.

You will even see some vegan and gluten-free, keto and Weight Watchers patriotic desserts. Don’t forget the scoop of vanilla ice cream and patriotic sprinkles! It is, after all, the summer holidays!

It’s going to be hard to pick just one Fourth of July dessert. These sweet treats have fresh berries, ice cream, cream cheese, red velvet cake, layered cake, and whipped cream. You will find cheesecakes, cookies, cherry pies, fresh fruit, patriotic cookie pops, fun popsicles, patriotic cupcakes, red, white, and blue ice cream sandwiches, and so much more! You will be drooling! And don’t forget the apple pie or cherry pie, a classic summer dessert – if you’re having a barbecue, it’s a staple item.
