Coolest Invader Zim Cake
It seems there is a popular character on the web called GIR. He is a robot with Vadar Zim (?) and he dresses up in a green dog suit with a big zipper up the front when he visits earth so he doesn't scare the population. My sister thinks he is wonderful. Me?!
So I made her this Invader Zim cake for her birthday. It is GIR jumping out of a turkey. Fans will know exactly what is going on.
To make this cake I baked a fruit cake (but any firm cake would do) in a half ball tin. Then I cut the two sides off so that there was a nice 'turkey' shape. I then cut the ends off the two side pieces. So I was left with the large middle piece for the body - two smaller pieces for the legs and four even smaller pieces which became potatoes.
I covered the cakes in rolled fondant. The turkey body was first covered with white fondant and then a second cover of pink fondant....
Coolest Gir from Invader Zim Cake Design 2
I made this Homemade Gir from Invader Zim Cake Design this past weekend for my husband's 29th birthday. I was rushed so I'm not totally thrilled with how it came out but I thought I would share anyway. The cake is Hershey's Choc. Cake with choc. butter cream.
The cake was hand carved by me into a seemingly Gir like shape. I then made mm fondant, colored the fondant and covered the cake. I also made a cupcake for Gir and his Piggy. The piggy is fondant and gumpaste.
It's not the smoothest cake I've ever made but there are so few Gir cakes and so many Invader Zim fans.
Enjoy!
