Sydney's Flip Flops

For my daughter's 7th birthday party. She picked out all flip flop decorations and wanted 'watermellon' flip flops for her cake. Her expression when I was finished was priceless. TFL!

Very sweet...well done! :)

Meljce - I actually used one of my size 9 flip flops as my template. I just traced it onto some thick cardboard and then used the cardboarrd to cut out the cakes.

What did you use for the straps? It is beautiful!

Diesel 6/9/10 at 10:39am

The straps are made of gumpaste. I actually have a pair of flip flops I've never worn and I use them. I cut out gumpaste strips then lay them over the flip flops straps and let sit overnight.

Hi, which colors did you use?

Diesel 6/22/10 at 6:36am

I used Deep Pink (Americolor) for the pink icing. Neon Green for the green stripes and green icing.

Diesel 6/22/10 at 6:37am

Or, maybe Neon Pink, now I'm drawing a blank :)
