We’ve seen cakes of Yoda, the Death Star, Millennium Falcon, R2-D2, even Chewbacca’s head; but this is the first time we’ve seen an AT-AT. Jennifer Luxmore of Sin Desserts in Providence, RI made this awesome cake and Great White Snark chatted with her about it.
The legs and base [of the Star Wars AT-AT cake] are wood, covered in gum paste and the cake is the head and body. I was in charge of baking, covering it in fondant and covering the legs with the gum paste. Phil was in charge of the design and base, Dave was in charge of color, Cutter was in charge of accessories (ie: guns), Coryndon was in charge of landscape and Joe was in charge of background. Then they all got together and painted on the details.

Seems to me that the AT-AT is enjoying a huge surge in popularity lately. 5 years ago it was just another sweet vehicle from everyone’s favorite episode. Now… psychedelic AT-AT tattoos…. custom AT-AT boomboxes…. and now artisanal AT-AT cake? I do wonder what’s up. Anyway, this cake is downright awe-inspiring.
this cake is absolutely amazing!!!!!
