chocolate cake filled with chocolate mousse and covered with red buttercream, then chocolate fondant colored black. 3 8" layers with 1 6" layer plus some extra cake domes to give more height to his helmet. 4" cake cut into a triangle for the front of his mask. Frankly he was a challenge for me and I think it looks more like a gas mask but my 8 yr old son likes it so we're good for now! ;o)
