It’s time for 4th of July Desserts! I know many of you will soon be looking for 4th of July recipes, patriotic foods and lots of BBQ side dishes! My Strawberry Pie for a crowd is perfect, as well as this Strawberry and Blueberry Summer Berries Parfait shared by Bird’s Party. They will both meet all of those needs. Another easy to throw together dessert is this Fudgy Brownie Trifle.

4th of July Desserts – Summer Berry Parfaits

fresh fruit parfaits made with summer berries

Hi, this is Bird from Bird’s Party Blog! So excited to be here at Today’s Creative Life, sharing one of my fav summer and 4th of July desserts – Summer Berry Parfaits!

I blog mainly about entertaining and party ideas, but also love to share tasty recipes, DIY craft projects, free party printables and fun party ideas that can help make your celebrations a breeze!

So after reading this post, I hope you stop by my blog or PARTY SHOP to check out all the goodies and party eye candy! 🙂

With Fourth of July ’round the corner, I love thinking up summer 4th of July desserts that taste delish but that can be served at a patriotic celebration! Double bonus if it incorporates seasonal produce and requires no baking! 🙂

And these no-bake summer berry parfaits are ideal for those last minute parties and 4th of July picnics (just pack the dessert into mason jars with lids).

You can basically use any seasonal fruit, but I love varying red berries (strawberries, cherries, raspberries…), and blueberries or blackberries to achieve a layered dessert that looks so pretty and patriotic for the 4th of July!

But you could also use peaches, mangoes, pineapples, and any fruit to achieve a summer dessert to suit your party or event colors.
