Here is how you make Vegan/Light Flag Sheet Cake:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease an 11 x 7-inch nonstick pan with cooking spray. For easy cake removal, line pan with waxed paper or parchment paper. Then liberally grease or spray pan again. Pour in Summer Yellow Cake batter and bake for 25-30 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean. Cool cake thoroughly. Invert cake onto a serving tray, and remove waxed paper or parchment paper. (If you don’t have a tray, use a large piece of sturdy card- board covered with aluminum foil.) Frost cake with white frosting, which I use fat free cool whip that as been whipped with a stand mixer, making frosting as smooth as possible. In upper left corner of cake, arrange blueberries (bottoms up) in an approximate 3 x 3-inch square. For the stripes, arrange rows of raspberries (bottoms up) or the tips (bottoms up) of small straw- berries horizontally across cake. Serves 12.
