This cake is great for either an alien or outer space birthday party theme.  And the kids will at least enjoy the lollies if they dont eat the cake!

Start with two round cakes.  Cut one cake to an oval shape - this will be your alien’s head.  Place the ‘head’ above the belly on your cake tray.  Ice both cakes with green butter icing.  Place coloured smarties and rainbow mini choc chips on the belly.  Use lollipops for the alien antennae, mint leaves for ears (we’ve put three ears on this one), jelly rings with smarties in them for eyes (again, three) and a jelly ring for the mouth.  Add some extra bumps around the ears using rainbow mini choc chips. 

Very easy and very effective!
