The Ultimate R2 Cake
     


Via
Craftzine, we noticed a B-Side blog report on the most
amazing R2-D2 cake ever (actually, it's red so I don't think it's an
R2-D2, maybe an R2-D1 or something?). Anyway, as edible astromechs go,
this one is pretty cool. The body is made of many levels of red velvet
cake while the legs were cut from giant Rice Krispy treat blocks. Once
assembled, the whole thing is coated with white, red, and silver icing
and all the expected details are added. There's a nice photo sequence of
the R2
cake being assembled and of the actual presentation
at a kiddo's birthday party. The cake was made by Mark Joesph Cakes in
Brooklyn, New York.

Arf Arf  :D

Yes, nice cake, the pre-formed legs looked a bit rude at first until I saw they were his legs.
