This cake was very easy to make and a lot of fun! I made it for my 5 year old's birthday party and everyone loved it! I added my own little twist to it though by making 2 cakes, 1 chocolate and one white and then cut 1 big flip-flop out of each cake instead making 2 small ones out of 1 cake. I also found some pastel polka-dot like sprinkles to decorate each flip-flop and then used a pink cupcake icing to go around the edges. The only problem I ran into was making the straps stand up like in this exampe so mine were a little more flat. I also wrapped a large piece of cardboard with aluminum foil and then frosted it with white frosting and sprinkled cinnamon-sugar mixture over the whole thing to make it look like sand. I found some candy letters I used to spell out "Happy Birthday Halleigh Rose" on the "beach" and found some beachy gummy candies like umbrella's, beach balls, and suns to decorate the beach with and also spread a few Swedish Fish candies on it.
