I wanted to make a cake for the staff at my daughter's school to celebrate the end of the school year. I opted to make a backpack cake inspired by one from Confetti Cakes. The cake was chocolate with chocolate buttercream, vanilla with vanilla butter cream and cookies-n-cream, covered with marshmallow fondant.

While I was working on this cake my daughter asked if I could make one "for the kids too." I came up with a with a vanilla cake with buttercream at the last minute. The flip-flops are marshmallow fondant, the sand is graham cracker crumbs. I rarely write on my cakes since my handwriting is terrible and I have a difficult time keeping a straight line, and I think that's obvious here. My daughter was happy though.
Have a Great Summer!
