Easy Homemade Beach Birthday Cake for my Mom

My mom celebrated her birthday this year at the beach with her grandkids and I decided to make a beach-themed birthday cake for her. I looked at this site for ideas and this was the end result.

The pink beach towels were sticks of chewing gum and the sand was crumbled-up Nilla Wafers. It’s difficult to make out in the picture, but I also made white caps so it would look as if the waves were breaking. I used my spatula to make the waves, and then I took a toothpick with white icing on it to make the white caps.

Everything seemed to go wrong while I was working on this cake, and it was not what I had originally planned, but I ended up being very pleased with how cute it turned out!
