Goomba cake

It was my boyfriend Peter's birthday this week and he loves video games, so i made him Goomba from Super Mario Bros. This is my favourite cake i've made in the past five years or so i've been baking - i hope you like him too!

My Goomba cake was made out of the following:

• Head and body: chocolate mud cake in a Wilton giant cupcake tin, covered with milk chocolate ganache
• Feet: LCM (Kelloggs rice bubble bars) x 5
• Details and Mario figurine: white fondant coloured with various Wilton icing colours.

Goomba cake - took about 7 hours to make over two days

Goomba cake being demolished, nooo!

If you would like any tips on how to make one, or want me to make one for someone you know then feel free to contact me.
