Ben 10 Cake with Aliens

I made a basic Madeira sponge in a rectangular pan (although any shape can be used). I iced it all over with buttercream with one half green and one half yellow. I found using the pastes was the best way to get the vibrant colours that are used in cartoons.

I put them on separately but blended them to make the so it was similar to colours used in the show. I used sugarpaste icing cut into rounds and coloured with food coloring and placed randomly around the cake. I used larger circles to hold the toys which I purchased as part of the birthday present for my son.

Any combination of toys can be used and it is easy to place the toys on the cake once the cake has been put in it's place.

I combined the icings to get a yellowy green which I piped around the edges, top and bottom.
Best part was he got to keep the toys!
