Food Porn: Red White and Blue for Bastille Day

Today is Bastille Day, the French holiday that celebrates the storming of the Bastille in 1789 and the start of the modern nation of France. Since the French colors are red, white and blue, what better way to celebrate than with a red, white and blue dessert? This beautiful vanilla and berry cake was made by Fanny from Food Beam and, while she made it in honor of France making it to the World Cup finals, it is perfect appropriate for this occasion. Come to think of it, it's perfect for any occasion when fresh berries are available. The cake is a simple vanilla butter cake, topped with a "frosting" made of ricotta cheese, fromage blanc/yogurt, sugar and more vanilla, which is then studded with perfectly ripe berries. It looks too beautiful to eat, and yet I can't help but crave a slice from looking at this picture and the others that accompany the recipe.
