Flip Flop Cake

Flip Flop Cake on Cake Central

Made this for my daughter's 7th birthday, which was a pool party. Each flip flop was cut from a 9x13" cake - one white one chocolate. I made a template of a flip flop and cut the cakes using the template. I used "fruit by the foot" for the thong and graham cracker crumbs for the sand. Also used some silk flowers I had from a Hawaiian lei. The girls loved it!

Great idea using the fruit by the foot. I was planning to make Flip Flops with whipped cream topping but wasn't comf. with using fondant as the straps. The fruit or bubble tape should hold up though without getting soft. Thanks ever so much. Your cake is beautiful

I cut each flip flop out of a 9x13" cake. I can't remember exactly how many kids were at the party, but I'd guess that the two cakes together would serve at least 24. If you needed to get more servings you could start with a larger sheet cake. Thanks for the nice feedback!
