Make cakes, not war with the Space Invaders cake mold. Perpetual Kid has created a cake mold designed to look exactly like one of the aliens from the iconic arcade game.
My only knock against the Space Invaders cake mold is that it's too small. The Space Invaders cake mold is designed for small cakes and brownies, not wedding and birthday cakes as I had hoped.
The Space Invaders cake mold is just another product in the long line of Space Invaders spin-off items. These 8-bit aliens have left their mark on everything, from couches to ties, with no signs of slowing down. Offbeat video game-branded items like this show you just how large a market gamers have become. Next up: Super Mario-branded overalls.
