Sandcastle Cake

This is a cake I did for a friend's daughter. It is 99% edible, no support or dowel rods or anything (but just one long strand of thread that I used to create the string of fondant pearls). Cake was lime green and neon blue on the inside (the daughter's fave colors). The sand was made out of vanilla wafters, chocolate graham crackers, a tablespoon of instant coffee, and gold edible glitter. The castle tops were made out of Fiber One's Caramel Cereal, painted with water and then coated with the "sand" mixture. The icing was mocha flavored (the daughter was 13 and loves Starbucks lattes etc). The shells are fondant and painted first with a thin layer of water and then with icing dye, and then sprinkled with edible glitter. I painted the pearls with water to give them a more reailstic shine! Hope you like it!!! Ive only done a handful of cakes in my life (maybe 5 total??). I'm posting all of them that I have pics of on this website, and from here on out I will add to my photo gallery as I make them!!! Hopefully as time goes by I will get better:)) Haha:) Thanks for looking!!
