Any child would be lucky to celebrate their birthday with a LEGO cake, especially if it looks anything like this one. Modeled after an adorable minifig head, the LEGO cake is particularly appropriate to make right now as it is hot on the heels of the successful 'The LEGO Movie.' Placed on a green grid, the minifig head looks as though it is loosing a bunch of colorful building blocks.
Created by Cakes by Carol, the LEGO cake is made out of chocolate sponge and buttercream cake that has been topped with chocolate ganache. The entire thing is edible, so children will love it even more than the actual toys it is inspired by. Adults as well.
