Preparation
  PREPARE THE FLOWER BED:
Ice the top and sides of the pound cake with chocolate frosting. Then trim the
top of each ladyfinger into a point to resemble a fence picket. Gently press the
pickets against the frosted sides of the loaf cake. Seal a handful of chocolate
wafer cookies in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Sprinkle the
crumb "soil" on top of the loaf cake.

PLANT A ROW OF TULIPS:
Sprinkle sugar onto waxed paper. Roll the gumdrops to a 1/4-inch thickness
using a rolling pin on the waxed paper surface. With kitchen scissors, cut
notches in the tops of the flattened gumdrops to create tulip shapes. Insert a
toothpick stem into the base of each blossom.

Make a pair of leaves for each tulip by trimming flattened green gumdrops
into teardrop shapes. Spear the base of each leaf with the toothpick stem
and push it halfway up the stem. Now plant the tulips in the cake. For a fun
finishing touch, sprinkle coconut tinted with green food coloring around the
garden to resemble grass.
