This cake was for my son’s 5th birthday party. He was big into Star Wars so we had a Jedi Training Camp with Jedi Robes, Light sabers and the R2D2 Cake. We even had chocolate dipped light saber pretzel sticks and a death star pinata.The birthday was time consuming but well worth it.
To build the R2D2 cake, I used a 6 in round cake pan to stack up the center part of the structure with a bowl cake on top. The side pieces were carved from a sheet cake. The entire cake was frosted with butter cream and the accessories were made with homemade marshmallow fondant (recipe on the Lego Cake post).
May The Force Be With You!
