Description So I made this along with one of my friends for ~Nahashta 's Birthday.
She loves Invader Zim, and especially GIR!

I am so happy with how it turned out, even though this was my FIRST time using Fondant on a cake, as well as carving and sculpting features in a cake!
I purchased the Fondant in white from a Bulk Barn store near my house and coloured it using gel food colouring that I bought along with the fondant. So much kneading in colour, it took forever to get the black parts black

She was so surprised when she opened her eyes during the "happy birthday" song, It was wonderful.

I wont be making any cakes in the near future. sorry. This is expensive, so I need to have an event for it.
There are lots of tutorials on how to carve cakes and roll fondant though!

This is awesome! I would love to make it for my duaghter's b-day. Are his head & body made out of cake and the rest fondant? How many layers? Thanks for sharing.

It was a bit too long ago to remember for sure... but I believe it was 2 layers that I carved down into a curve for the body, and 3 for the head carved a little for shape. The arms, leg, ears, eyes, and all the decorations are just fondant though.
I bought a bucket of pure white and dyed it with gel food colouring.

Thank you my dear! I had a really fun time making it.
Fondant wasn't that hard to work with either, you should try it!
