Ok, forgot to buy the Fruitabu fruit strips for a flag cake!  Well, maybe will have to make a different cake today.  Or maybe a pie.

For the butter cream frosting it’s easiest to make in the food processor.  All you need is unsalted butter, corn syrup, powdered sugar, vanilla, sea salt.  Make sure it’s good quality butter and vanilla— they make all the difference.

If you mix them in food processor it comes out smooth and creamy. Adding the salt during process instead of using salted butter lets you control saltiness.

Happy 4th!
