[QUOTE=CFrance;1563589]Peaches. I can buy blueberries loose (scoop up however many you want). They will still be available. Cherries are gone and the super good strawberries are over.[/QUO
oooo i got carried away and missed that you can't get strawberries----can you get frozen
Don't make the cake from scratch. Go to a bakery and pick out little sweet cakes or a pound cake [maybe gluten free] and just fuss with the fruit and whip cream or buy whip cream.
I like everything. If someone showed up with peaches, blueberries, cooked strawberries, whipped cream and split the little cakes or pound cake everyone could try a little of everything or just their favorite.
If you do want to tackle a cake this looks fairly easy.

Strawberry Sauce Recipe [i'll bet you can substitute fresh peaches [get the soft ones]
Ingredients
3 cups strawberries, finely chopped
1/2 cup sugar
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Combine the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons water in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries break down, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in the vanilla.
Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing against the solids; let cool completely. To store, cover and refrigerate up to 4 days.
or buy frozen in their syrup and use it as a topping.
The dessert would be red, white and blue---
Peaches would work too with the cake and whip cream. What could you sprinkle on top that goes with peaches? raisins, craisons, chopped prunes
