My kids love the books and movies about Asterix, so much, my son asked if we could make an Asterix cake for his birthday. We came up with this homemade chocolate cake, decorated as a scene from the books when the Romans attacking the village of Asterix and his friends. The kids loved it, and the parents talked about the wonderful centerpiece on the table.
