Darth Vader Cake

For my son's 4th birthday!  He's a huge Darth Vader and Star Wars fan.  Darth is made from cereal treats and gumpaste and is supported with a wooden dowel and fat plastic drinking straw.  Outside of the supports, Darth Vader is completely edible (and I regret not taking pictures of the kids tearing into this guy at the party!).

LEGO Cake

For my 6 year old's birthday! LEGO cake is covered in fondant. The LEGO guy (made to be a redhead like the birthday boy) is made from rice krispies treats, fondant and gumpaste. The light saber is a wooden dowel covered in fondant and brushed with green luster dust.

To show the size of this cake, here's a picture of him blowing out the candles...
