Bday Cake with Shoe and Strawberries

This chocolate cake was for my niece's 30th Bday. It was three 8" cakes stacked, chocolate icing, ganache (that was kinda thin) and topped with strawberries. I made the twirly chocolate and 30 out of chocoalte almond. And for the shoe, I hand molded it out of polymer clay and painted it. I added some "diamonds" on the strap and I painted "thirty" on the shoe tag. This was something she could keep since she is a shoe lover! Next time I think I will use wooden dowels, the cake didn't move, but it did get saggy.
