Ben 10 Birthday Cake

I made this cake for my son’s 6th birthday. Ben 10 and his omnitrix watch are the latest ‘in-thing’ for him and he was so happy to have the cake on this birthday.

Things you need to decorate the cake:

• Butter icing in ivory, black and brown

• Fondant for Ben-10 picture and wordings

• Food coloring is ivory, green, white, black and yellow

Cake decorating tips:

• Get a picture or template of Ben-10 and the logo.

• Roll fondant to a thickness of about 1/6th inch. Cut out the pictures from the fondant. Using a toothpick, trace out the rest of the picture and logo details on the cut out fondant.

• Leave the fondant aside to set. It is best to leave it to set for at least one day.

• Once the logo is set, paint it to resemble that of Ben-10 and his logo.

• Prepare your cake and place it on a cake board. Smoothen butter icing all over the cake. Carefully lift the Ben-10 picture and his logo and place them on the cake.

• Next, using brown icing, pipe stars all around the base and top of the cake for border.

• Finally, outline Ben-10 and his logo with black icing.
