   Bake the cake according to the direction (Use the high altitude
   directions if you need them), in a 9 X 13-inch pan.  Cool.  (Cake may
   be made ahead and frozen.) Place on a serving plate or board.
   
   Whip the cream with the confectioners sugar.  Cut the strawberries in
   hal lengthwise.  Spread the cream evenly around the sides of the
   cake, saving a little for the top.
   
   To decorate:  Using a pastry bag, pipe (or dollop and spread with a
   spatula) rows of cream alternating with rows of strawberries for the
   flag “stripes”.  Make a background of the blueberries in the upper
   left-hand corner, then pipe or dollop stars on top to create the
   “star” section of the cake.  If making cake ahed, arrange fruit
   several hours before serving. Add the cream up to an hour before
   serving.
