May 13 2008A Jawa Sandcrawlerload Of R2-D2 Cakes

Get it? Instead of boatload? I'm throwing rocks tonight. Mark it, Dude. So I've been getting a ton of R2-D2 cake tips lately, and I've decided to just compile them into a single post and unleash the beast in one fell swoop. So here they are, starting with this handsome droid, that, get this, comes sans fondant. Oh snap, crackle and pop indeed my friends. A cake without fondant. All the ones after the jump are heavy on the fondantry, so yeah. Oh, and you've got to check out the picture of the Star Wars themed wedding party for the last cake (after the jump). Freakin' awesome. Almost as awesome as my wedding's theme, which was admittedly less Star Warsy and more "the biggest mistake of your life"sy.
All the must see pictures after the jump.

Gay marriage is still illegal in 49 states, but apparently "ghey" marriage is legal everywhere. My embarrassment for those people in the photo does not outweigh my desire to have them locked away for the rest of their lives.

Now why would Mr. Geek put the cake apparently baked by an epileptic, freebasing manatee on the front page?? Pic number 2 is way better, you just barely managed to sustain my interest geek-guy.

@5 He put if first because it was so lame. The Geek Meister loves lame.
As for the wedding, why in the hell wasn't I invited? I have a light saber. Maybe I'll just have to use it on them now.

@5 - He just saved the best for second!

Am I to assume that the, eh, "large" woman in the wedding photo is the bride?
In a galaxy far, far away
long, long ago
there was a fat woman with a dream
a dream of her own intergalactic wedding
where she, the bride, would finally get a man
nevermind the fact that both sides
of the force were invited
that mattered little
to the fat woman.
So she laid in wait
hoping that soon she could land her prey
in the swollen belly of the sand monster.
Little did the intergalactic community know
that this wedding would lead to an uprising,
an uprising that would be led
by the child of this union...
and as Yoda awoke from his vision
covered in sweat
few words could be said from his painfully dry mouth
"Hutt's come, they have."
*Star Wars theme music plays*
Ehhehhhehhhhh...it's a Wookie.

WTF? Where is the light saber cake slicer... la/\/\3

#8 that was fantastic. I was also wondering exactly who the bride was.
As far as R2D2 cake, I now want to try one myself. I'm sure I can make a little dome top that wouldn't be toooo dreadful.
(after 5 hours in the kitchen) Aw who cares. just eat the damn thing. Stupid droid.
Next project: Bantha slipper cake. Can't really mess that one up can you? the best part - trying it on when you are done. AHH YEAH
12. SmokingGirl - May 13, 2008 7:56 PM
I love you, Freddy. I really, really do.

The bride should have dressed as the Death Star - she wouldn't have even needed a costume, just bodypaint.
15. Scatze - May 14, 2008 9:13 AM
So the bride's Jabba the Hutt...am I right?
16. SmokingGirl - May 14, 2008 10:37 AM
No, the bride's son is Jabba the Hutt. However, she would be the mother of all Hutts, as it were. *sigh*

Cake me....
Banana slipper cake? I see Freddy beat me to the cake!
And SG is learning to not waste her defenses by letting others take the heat.

Lolage(:
Boyd.

CCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yum.

I would not want to see her painted like the death star. It'd be like dipping a Butterball turkey into a vat of paint. And lord knows I'll never do _that_ again.
