When it comes to everyone’s favorite part of every holiday, food usually tops the list. July 4 is like any other holiday in terms of people coming together, celebrating their country’s birth, and cooking up some delicious flavors. Any Fourth of July celebration dinner would be incomplete, however, without some delicious desserts. Here are some simple yet delicious treats you might want to whip up this weekend.

Red, White, and Blue Trail Mix: Dip some pretzels in white chocolate and serve with raspberries and blueberries for a sweet, juicy treat everyone can enjoy with their hands.

Red, White, and Blue Cake: This is one that we’ve always loved doing. Make a light, fluffy cake—vanilla and pound cake work well, and yellow would work, too—and ice it with white icing. Next, create a small square of layers of blueberries as stars in the upper left hand corner. Finally, finish it with layers of red strawberry “stripes” going across the cake, leaving even layers of white icing in between them as the flag. However…

Velvet Cake: This red, white, and blue velvet cake looks absolutely amazing. We may have to make this one this year instead of our traditional berry cake!

American Pie: This delicious fruit pie recipe is sure to be a crowd pleaser. (The same site has more delicious ideas as well—including striped strawberries.) Of course, good old fashioned apple pie will work, too! Make one on your own or simply grab one at the store to bake. And speaking of apples…

Apple Treats: Any kind of apple treats work well during Independence Day! Try caramel apples, fried apples, baked apples, whatever you like. Make apple fries as a side dish and sprinkle some nutmeg and cinnamon on them, or top them with a bit of double-churned vanilla ice cream for a sweet, smooth flavor sure to cool your family off on this hottest of holidays.

S’Mores: What an easy, DIY treat to serve at your gathering! Simply provide each guest with their own stick, piece of chocolate, marshmallow, and two squares of graham cracker and let the ooey gooey messiness begin! Be sure to make up a few for the little ones, if present.

Simple Fruit: A watermelon basket, edible arrangement, or any other arrangement of your favorite succulent fruits—coupled with cheese, if you wish—is a very easy yet delicious dessert you can incorporate into almost any Fourth of July menu.
