The idea is good, but implementing the image I had in my head proved to be more difficult. Hope I found a happy medium :)
The March of the Penguins (for those who may not know) is a movie on the King Penguin and its 70-mile march for breeding. I make no comments about the peas LOL
This involved finding a photo of clouds (one of mine), setting up a surface for the ice cubes, placing the peas, and lots of nasty words as the ice slipped and slid all over, pushing peas ahead of it!
Post processing: resized, sharpened, dodged the foreground.

Somehow it seems like the beans are floating in midair over a set of other beans wich are covered in milk. Strange.

Funny Idea.

you're scaring me now ... what are the thinks doubling as mountains in the background? :) They look worryingly like silicone breast implants, or does your icemaker do tasteful hemispherical, oblong ice (cubes) things?

If it's not a composite, it's a cracking photo.

I´m sure you are getting this in other comments, but the sky really looks out of place in this picture compared to the lighting on the peas and their surrounding.
