Star Wars artist Chris Trevas let us know of this glorious Tauntaun cake for his wedding!
Julie and I had Courtney Clark from Cake Nouveau of Food Network Challenge (and TLC Ultimate Cake-Off) fame do our wedding cakes including a special cake request from me — Luke Skywalker stuffed inside a dead Tauntaun!


It was certainly one of the talks of the wedding evening. Older relatives were a bit confused, but the kids and our friends loved it!

Courtney did an amazing job! My wife Julie and I are big Food Network nerds so we were geeked to hire her.
As further proof of what cake nerds we are, my only big non-Star Wars job I did last year was artwork for the Ace of Cakes book just released this month.













cool
Definitely cool! It looks so amazing! I wonder if they could do wedding cake that looked like Grievous with his chest ripped open. I’d like to have a cake like that!
Totally cool, love it… Really well done too, kinda makes me want to vomit…
I got excited when I thought it was the two trooper’s cake! Ha!
Did they do a ‘Death Star’ cake yet? That’d be COOL.
Iam HUNGRY xDDD
Where’s Han in this scene?? Ain’t he the one who put Luke there in the first place??
I hope it didn’t taste like it looks.
Nice cake.
Brilliant cake!
my fiancee would never let me do that im still pushing for a star wars theme at our wedding
That is so cool!!!!!!!
That’s the greatest cake ever! But will it keep you warm?
I thought it could smell bad but taste good? ew!
Ive got a guy going to do a Boba Fett helmet cheesecake for my wedding.
Courtney Clark you are a freaking genius. True creative artistry .. we salute you!
CONGRATULATIONS!!
uHM…Don’t tell me! It tastes like “chicken”…:)
This is definitley pushing the boundries as far as cakes go. You would have to have a great sense of humor to have this at your wedding. Cool, but gross.
Hahaha Best Cake Ever !!!!!
cool !and what about luke all srached up by the wampa?
i want a bit it looks sweet and filing.the guts look like noodles.
And I thought they smelled bad on the outside!
Extra points for having the wedding at The Henry Ford Museum!
awesome. i wish i had a cake like that. I wonder if they will ever make a cake that has anakin and obi wan fighting on Mustafar. that would be cool.
It seems a shame to eat it.
“Ooh…I thought they smelled bad on the outside!”
lol
totally sweet cake
i agree with theresa
where’s han??
it was his brilliant idea to shove luke in there
i suppose afterwards
when leia kisses luke
han’s thinking
“this is wat i get 4 saving his life??”
“no, this is wat i get 4 shovin him into a dead tantaun”
And I thought the tasted bad on the outside.
And I thought the tasted bad on the outside.
I think that the only word that can describe this cake is AMAZING. Great work. Thanks for share.
Best regards.
Awesome. wonder if they will ever make a cake that has Vader’s helmet on it. that would be cool.
only a couple REALLY likes star wars would get that cake
Does it smell bad from the outside?
I dont get it but once again I am not very normal…
THEY SHOULD MAKE A CAKE OF PADME AND ANAKIN FOR A WEDDING CAKE OR SOMETHING!!!
Padme & Anakin?
Umm, you do remember how THAT relationship ended, right?
Nice! Courtney is pretty cute herself
I love this! Fantastic.
very nice
Very Funny! I don’t know if I could have done this to my own wedding cake though.
i want that at my wedding
I agree that its very good job, but i don’t think that any non-vegetarian person will dare to smash it….sry but it is looking so horrible..
This was the groom’s cake. There was an equally impressive, yet elegant, wedding cake made by Courtney there. I’m the trooper on the left in the photos. It was an amazing wedding to be part of. Congrats to Chris & Julie!
Great photo of this awesome cake.
i wish that i could have ate the internal organs
That doesn’t look like a Taun Taun. It looks more like one of those weird creatures people have found in Texas that they think are Chupacabras.
OMFG!
I am impressed (and disgusted) at the same time. Did the new couple honeymoon in a room with Tauntaun sleeping bags afterwards?
Now THAT would be impressive.
kool, love it… Really well done , its makes me to vomit……. :p lolx
Cool cake! Yum!
Not by them, and not as cool, but as someone wanted to know if it had been done….
