Lunch Lady Cake

I was asked to decorate a cake for a retiring lunch lady. We decided to do a tray and some lunch. Everything except the plastic wrap and straw is edible and hand made.
I was really disappointed in the milk carton, but it was a learning experience anyway. I'm still struggling with the seams but again, it's all part of learning.
