The 4th of July is almost here! Enjoy this delicious Red, White & Blue Lemon Texas Sheet Cake topped with cherries, blueberries and an almond frosting!
Red, White & Blue Lemon Texas Sheet Cake
I have always been a lover of Texas Sheet Cake. The way the frosting and the cake blend together is like a party for my tastebuds. With the 4th of July right around the corner I wanted to try a recipe I’ve been dying to make! This Red, White & Blue Lemon Texas Sheet Cake has a lemon cake with an almond frosting. I love patriotic desserts but what I love most is keeping them dye-free. So I added the red and blue using blueberries and cherries! You could swap in strawberries instead or even use the sheet cake to make an American flag design! So many fun options with this 4th of July dessert!
White Texas Sheet Cake
Texas sheet cake is traditionally chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. This is a white sheet cake but it is made using the same techniques by boiling the butter and pouring the frosting over the hot cake. I’m fairly obsessed with this cake now. A friend of mine tasted it yesterday and immediately texted me saying “Best cake of my life.” You won’t want to miss out on this Red, White & Blue Lemon Texas Sheet Cake!
Lemon Almond Texas Sheet Cake
I actually used mini sheet pans when I made this because I wanted to take half to my aunt! You’ll get about 24 large pieces instead of the 12 you see in the photo. You can even bake this in a casserole dish if you don’t have a sheet pan handy! The only change in the recipe would be giving it a few more minutes in the oven!
Parker and I went cherry picking here in Utah yesterday so of course I had to whip up something to put them to good use! But our favorite thing to make with cherries is cobbler, so we’ll have to do that this week when my sweet Mama comes to town. Does anyone else love adding a little almond extract to their cherry cobblers?
I noticed when I was editing these photos that I accidentally arranged a little smiley face on this piece! Whoops!
Luckily I gave all this cake away because if I hadn’t I would still be eating it! It was that good.
Enjoy my Red, White & Blue Lemon Texas Sheet Cake with your family this 4th of July!

This looks so good!! Is a half sheet pan the same as a mini?
Lizzy Mae Early says
It is! This cake also bakes well in a casserole dish or you can do a full size sheet pan! The only thing that really will change is the baking time.
Kristen says
What are the dimensions of a sheet pan? My pans are 13×18
Rachel Smith says
Could you use lemon extract or lemon juice in place of the almond extract so the frosting is more lemony?
Lizzy Mae Early says
Yes, you totally can! I would decrease the liquid in the frosting and replace it with lemon juice, but maybe don’t add it until after the boiling! Also, you can double the lemon zest in the cake! This cake is really fun because you can easily play with the flavors. I already have some fun ideas for more White Texas Sheet Cakes!
Jennifer says
This cake looks adorable and delicious! I love Texas sheet cake but I never think of switching up the flavors. Pinning! Happy early 4th of July!
Lizzy Mae Early says

gluten free desserts dairy free -recipes : One of the biggest challenges about becoming gluten-free is to give up these succulent desserts filled with wheat. Let’s face it: rice flour, tapioca starch, potato starch, sorghum, millet, kernel, etc., can not compete with wheat flour. I thought everything was lost when I had to give up those tempting desserts. Fortunately, many of my misconceptions were dissolved because I learned how to modify, experiment and enjoy recipes for gluten-free desserts.

This complementary component has a propensity to win back a significant number of prospective clients. How would you go about defending it? Getting this done provides a cool and unusual perspective on the problems at hand. I believe that making use of anything authentic and perhaps significant to convey home elevators is the most important factor to take into account.

If possible, include family members or friends in your hobby pursuits. Not only does this strengthen relationships, but it also allows you to share your passion with others. Joint activities can be a great way to spend quality time together while enjoying your hobbies.
Learn to say no to non-essential commitments that may hinder your ability to pursue your hobbies. It’s okay to decline invitations or responsibilities that don’t align with your priorities. Guard your hobby time as sacred.
