If you're planning on sitting down to watch a Star Wars movie marathon and you need something to snack on, try the delicious life-sized stormtrooper cake.
This cake, designed by Amanda Oakleaf Cakes, stands 6 feet, 4 inches tall and took two weeks of work to create. The giant treat weighs over 300 pounds and looks incredibly realistic. The Arisia Sci-Fi Convention in Boston was fortunate enough to chow down on this clone cake as it was fed to over 300 people.
This stormtrooper cake would have also been an awesome tool for slowing down Han solo and Luke Skywalker, assuming they couldn't resist stopping to have a bite -- and who could? If Darth Vader had used sugar and flour instead of clones, the Star Wars series would have ended much differently.
