Darth Vader

 So when I first got a request for this cake, I glanced at it and thought 'That looks simple enough'. As a week or so went by and I started to study it a little closer, there were a couple elements I became concerned about. And I started to wonder why I had taken the order. Concern #1: the painting on the tiers is air brushed, and I do not own an air brush. Concern #2: I had never sculpted a human figure before. Not only have I not sculpted one before, but I was terrified to even try sculpting one. But nothing ventured, nothing gained! So I did some creative thinking and I watched some YouTube videos and I gave it my best shot. I have to say, I am proud of how Vader turned out. He is my sturdiest sculpture to date, and I may not be quite so terrified of sculpting anymore. He took me about 6 hours, weighed almost 9 ounces, and stood about 6 inches tall. The cake is 10" chocolate fudge with raspberry filling, vanilla buttercream, and fondant. 8" red velvet with mexican vanilla buttercream and fondant.

 The birthday boy who wanted this cake postponed his birthday party almost an entire month so I could make his cake for him. He and his mother were super patient with me while I was off vacationing with the family. But eventually we got it done! My daughter was a little freaked out by the Yoda feet. She thought they were creepy haha! 10", 8", and 6" hemisphere confetti cake with vanilla pudding filling, vanilla buttercream, and fondant.
