Aren’t these just adorable? My sister-in-law has a passion for cooking, especially with her two daughters. They make cupcakes, cookies and all kinds of goodies that they generously share with the family. So it was no surprise when one of the girls had a birthday and my sister-in-law decided to buck the custom standard of either buying a store bought cake (usually ice cream) and made this delightful creation with her daughter.

I ooohed & ahhhed over the flip-flops in awe of their creativity. She finally relented and told me it’s a Betty Crocker recipe so I thought I’d share it with all of you. It’s the perfect cake for a summertime birthday party and it saves a bundle over buying it in the store!

My sister-in-law also co-owns a soy candle business and I will posting a product review/giveaway about them on July 6th so be sure to check back soon or subscribe to my RSS feed to receive updates.
