We made this cake for a very good friend’s wedding as a groom’s cake. It seemed like a very simple design, but this cake just about kicked out butts! The eyeball / face area was the hardest part (of course) and we finally accomplished it by making a RKT “puck” that we glued to the cake using royal icing. We then wrapped that in modeling chocolate for the visor and inserted the candy melt eyeballs into the RKT. My biggest problem was that I used one of those food writer markers to draw the lines on the mouth and once we were at the wedding his teeth wanted to run. I was able to use a paring knife to scrape it away, but I have learned my lesson and trashed those darned food markers!

I wished I had taken more “in-progress” shots, but time was not on my side during this project!
