It doesn't get more patriotic than 3 pies stuffed into red, white and blue cake

The 4th of July makes everyone go into red, white and blue overdrive. But even if you're cranking out the flag cakes and sipping on patriotic-themed cocktails, you've got nothing on Charles Phoenix.

His creation is called The Cherbluble, because it's a mashup of cherry, blueberry and apple pies, of course. And the best thing about it is you don't have to be a master baker to accomplish it. With the help of Sara Lee, your Cherbluble is already half done. Throw in some boxed cake mix and canned frosting, and you're diving into the most American pie-cake you'll ever eat.
