With a little help from my boyfriend, these mini monsters were created for my birthday in February 2008.
The core of each Dalek is a mini chocolate Swiss roll, covered in extra melted chocolate. The dome was created with a marshmallow filled teacake ‘glued’ to the top. The stalks are candy sticks, the lights on the top are glace cherries – of which we bought several different colours! – and the dots are silver confectionery balls which were attached with more melted chocolate. This was the trickiest bit of all and most of them ended up sliding into a different position!
We also created a small legion of Cybermen. We used shop bought gingerbread men covered them in chocolate and decorated them with candy sticks and icing/gel.
This Dalek and Cybermen cake was an absolute hoot to do, my guests were very impressed and I cant wait til next year! Just gotta come up with something even better.!
