Candy/Gumball Machine Giant Cupcake

I love YouTube and I love My Cupcake Addictions (I forget her name), but this was inspired by her video and I HAD to try it! She used gumballs which seems to not exist where I am, so I substituted with M&M's! The base is a German's Chocolate Cake, and the outer part is Wilton's red candy melts, melted and placed in the base of my giant cupcake mold to obtain the baking cup (aka cupcake liner) shape. The remainder of the decor (except the jar & ribbon) was made out of fondant, and I airbrushed the cake circle red.
