His birthday was a Star Wars theme last year. This year is going to be a sequal.
Last year's cake was a double light saber, with light saber cupcakes for school.
I made R2-D2
and the Millenium Falcon for friends.
This year, his school cupcakes were clone troopers. Thanks to the Clone Wars Encyclopedia, there were 7 different types of troopers adorning 31 cupcakes.
Surprisingly, these cupcakes were not that difficult to make. The base coat was white and all the "eye shields" were the same shape. I just had to add some additional details in different colors to make the different troopers.
Next week, I will be making a Commander Fox cake for his birthday party.
I can't wait to see what next year's cake "order" will be!
How did you add color to the rice krispy treats in the crossed lightsaber 'cake'?
ReplyDeleteI added gel food coloring (made by Wilton) into the marshmallow mix before I added the rice crispies. Gel food coloring can be found at most craft stores, i.e. Micheal's, Joann's, and even Walmart.
