In line with the 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens film,' a little Japan cafe located in the Ginza Cozy Corner will be serving a lineup of geeky Star Wars desserts. These tasty treats will feature cakes and other confections inspired by the franchise's many notable characters.
While an adorable R2-D2 yogurt cake is a dome-shaped dessert with a biscuit flake -- finished with a raw cream -- the C-3PO lemon cake is a tangy treat that shares the same look as the intelligent droid. These characters are also offered in mousse form while Darth Vader and the Stormtroopers are made into white and dark chocolate pralines.
This Japan cafe will be selling these geeky desserts from November 1, 2015 to December 21, 2015.
