Happy 4th of July! You know I couldn’t leave you hanging without something red, white, and blue today. I decided these fruit and protein cake skewers would be a fun little addition to the picnic table. Plus they’re easy to eat, something a little sweet, and not too filling.
Now, let me tell you about this cake for a minute…I would be willing to bet that this is the best damn protein cake you’ll ever make. It’s like a sponge cake! Nice and tender, airy and light, moist and delicious. Seriously, you need to try it. I’ve had some of these little leftover squares sitting in my refrigerator for a week and they are still tender and moist. SO GOOD! I based it off of the cake recipe I used for this fancy Rose Pistachio Protein Cake I did for Valentine’s Day.
I bought these cute little buckets at Target and the skewers at World Market, but you can pick them up on Amazon too.
