Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cake rectangle
  • 2 tubs vanilla frosting Aqua Blue color
  • 8 graham crackers
  • Sour Patch Kids candy
  • gummy candy rings
  • Airhead Extreme Strips
  • Dum-Dum suckers
  • swedish fish candy
  • gummy candy shark shaped
  • Tic Tacs tropical flavor

Instructions

  1. Frost the cake with the Aqua Blue frosting, making sure to frost all of the sides and the top of the cake.
  2. Pulse graham crackers in a food processor until they become graham cracker crumbs. Pour graham cracker crumbs on top of the cake on the half that does not have blue frosting.
  3. Decorate the beach and water with towel using the Airhead strips, Sour Patch Kids or gummy bears, candy rings, and more. Finish it off with little drink umbrellas, Swedish fish, and gummy sharks.
  4. Slice cake into pieces and serve directly out of the freezer.

Notes

  • Don’t crowd the cake with candy so much that it just looks overloaded and not like a beach scene but make sure to have enough that everyone will get a little bit on their slice of cake (or when they pick it off if they’re like my kids)
  • Add frosting to the sides of the cake in one smooth motion from one side to the other instead of frosting back and forth. Back and forth tends to bring up the white frosting underneath, which can look cool, but it’s really not the look you’re going for.
  • Plan out your beach cake decorating before you start actually adding things to the cake (and keep the cake in the freezer while you plan). This will make it easier to make it look like you’re hoping without disturbing the ocean frosting and graham cracker sand.
