Cake was based upon one done by Cake Heart. Bucket was made from styrofoam and covered in 50/50 fondant and gum paste. Sand was made using crushed graham crackers and Nilla wafers. Flip flops are modeling chocolate and the flower is made from gum paste.
Great job! Wow! The gravity-defying effect is awesome and everything looks great! The hibiscus is lovely! An outstanding cake, all around.
