How to Make Canada Flag Cake

  1. Prepare a 13x9 inch baking pan by lining the bottom with slices of pound cake (approximately 1 13x9 inch pound cake).
  2. Set aside the prepared pan.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the dry contents of two 3-ounce packages of strawberry jelly powder. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of boiling water for at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved and smooth.
  4. Add 2 cups of ice cubes to the jelly mixture.
  5. Stir for 3-5 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to a spreadable consistency.
  6. Remove any unmelted ice cubes.
  7. Gently fold in 1 cup of sliced fresh strawberries.
  8. Evenly spoon the strawberry jelly mixture over the pound cake slices in the prepared pan.
  9. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to allow the jelly to begin to set.
  10. Spread 2 cups of whipped topping or whipping cream evenly over the set jelly layer.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the jelly is completely firm.
  12. Arrange the remaining 2 cups of sliced fresh strawberries on top of the whipped cream to create the Canadian flag design (red on top, white underneath).
  13. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Store leftover cake in the refrigerator.
