Volcano cake

Myles wanted a volcano cake for his birthday so I made a pinata style one. I made 2 cakes and stacked them on top of each other and shaped into a volcano. I cut a hole out of the middle, which I filled with red, orange, yellow and brown M&Ms that spilled out like lava when we cut it. Then iced it with chocolate icing and covered it in popcorn, caramel popcorn, Malteasers and honeycomb. I melted some red, orange and yellow hard lollies in the oven and shaped them while hot into flames, which looked great (I was going to make some longer ones but still great) Then used white chocolate ganache with butter dyed red for the lava. The sparklers also made it great (should've had more people lighting them together as they didn't last long!) Myles loved it and told everyone who asked him about his birthday!
