I made the cake. My daughter wanted a hula girl cake. I had to get creative. We had 24 guests coming(family and friends). I made a large sheet cake. I frosted it green by adding green food coloring to vanilla icing. To make the frosting look like grass, I used a fork and made light upward marks on the frosting with the prongs of the fork. For the hula girl, I baked a cake using a large bowl. I took the cake out of the bowl and cut the top of the cake enough to make it level so that when it was inverted, it would look straight. I spread a THIN layer of green frosting on the cake. I then placed the bowl cake on the center of the frosted sheet cake. I inserted a doll pick in the top center of the bowl cake. I filled a piping bag with green frosting and put a large round tip on the end of the piping bag. I began frosting at the top of the bowl cake where the doll pick and cake met. I made a long and continuous thick line from the top of the bowl cake to the bottom of the bowl cake. I then started at the top again right next to the line I just made and made another line. I kept doing that all around the bowl cake. That made the hula skirt. The reason I put a thin layer of frosting on the bowl cake before piping the skirt design to it was because if there are any gaps between the piping lines, the baked cake color won't show and sometimes it's hard to continue the piping lines all the way to the bottom of the bowl cake and that way, it won't show the cake as not being completely frosted.  I then piped little flowers on the doll to resemble a flower bikini top. I did that by coloring small batches of frosting different colors and using small piping bags with the small rosette piping tip on them. I also piped small little flowers on the top of the doll pick's hair. Everyone commented on how the cake looked great. My daughter loved it and that was the remark I cared most about.
