May the Force Be With You

May the Force Be With You


My mom should earn the title "Jedi Master" solely for this cake she made Jer for his birthday!!!

It started a few weeks ago when she called and told me she had an idea for a cake she could make him, if we were interested. "As long as its not very big, because there are only going to be about seven of us," I told her. Well, five and a half feet long is a long stretch (hehe) from not very big!!! It was only 4 inches wide though, so it evens out, right? I couldnt say no, I KNEW Jer would absolutely go nuts about this cake, so I accepted the offer!

There are a few Star Wars obsessed people fans in my family, so my mom had help deciding what it should look like. She fashioned it after Darth Vaders lightsaber, which is Jers favorite.


She brought it over on Saturday before our few guests arrived. We were AMAZED!!! Jer would have picked it up and wielded it, slashing invisible enemies, had I not told him, "Fall victim to the dark side of the force you must not. Cake for eating. Restrain yourself you must." She has made many many awesome cakes before, but this one, I have to say it, takes the cake! I mean, who do you know that can make a cake that measures 5.5 feet long?!

OK... youve been waiting long enough for the pictures, so here they are!

(I had to tilt my camera to get the whole cake in the picture!)



It was the star of the party. A cake to remember! Awe-inspiring, and DELICIOUS to boot!
