It’s true. It’s a cake. And it is awesome.
Here’s how they did it:
A work of art without a doubt.
This Stormtrooper stood 6 feet 4 inches tall, weighed at least 300 lbs, and fed nearly 600 hungry Arisia Sci-Fi Convention attendees.
The building of the Stormtrooper cake was an epic event in and of itself. It took our entire wonderful crew of ten people two full weeks of to put this guy together (although the cake wasn’t added until 2 days before it was to be served). Along the way we even had to invent completely new cake making methods so it could be put together modularly onsite, hold its fondant over long vertical stretches, and stand on two beautifully sculpted Rice Kripsy legs that supported his 300 lb body – all while keeping every bit of cake tasting light, fluffy, and delicious!
The eating of the cake is just as amazing as the building of it!
My favorite part from the Amanda Oakleaf Cake blog post about their EPIC Star Wars Stormtrooper was the title:
We built a life-size Stormtrooper and he was delicious.
LOL!
Amanda Oakleaf Cakes are amazing.
