"Party" giant cupcake cake

My second attempt at a giant cupcake cake. Party theme with light purple, green, blue and pink as the colors scheme. Covered in fondant, with curly-cues, colorful dragees (beads) and a fondant cherry on top .

This time I made a hard candy 'shell' to act as a cupcake wrapper for my cake. I did this by melting candy melts and pouring them into my cake pan (which has the necessary grooves), then turn it sit upside down for awhile to drain off excess (the candy coats the inside of the pan). Once it hardens, it can pop right out
