If you want to bake something special for the Fourth of July, you'll need some good quality bakeware and kitchen tools. Here, we’ve curated a list of what you'll need to master some classic American cakes, muffins, and cookies for the big day.
1) Round cake pans, spatulas, and piping bags: These will come in handy for baking cakes, you'll need a cake pan or two, depending on the size and shape of the cake you're making. If you're making a layered cake, you'll need to bake an extra cake to put in between the layers of icing, or to stack them on top of each other to make the cake taller. You'll also need a good spatula or two to spread the frosting evenly, and a piping bag if you want to get really fancy with your decorating.
2) Cookie Sheets and Cookie Cutters: You'll need a few baking sheets and a good cookie cutter (or two) if you want to perfect your cookies. You can also use the cookie cutter to cut out your favorite words related to the special day! And of course, no Fourth of July celebration would be complete without some incredible decoration, so a piping bag is crucial if you want your cookies to look presentable on the day.
3) Muffin tins: Muffins are a great option for Fourth of July baking. Be sure to grab a few different sizes so you can make mini muffins, regular-sized muffins, or even jumbo muffins.
4) Last but not least, cake decorating supplies: If you want to get really creative with your Fourth of July baked goods, then you'll need some decorating supplies. Make sure to pick up some icing, sprinkles, and other decorations that will help you create some truly amazing desserts.
