R2-D2 Grooms Cake

Wow, what a fun challenge this guy was! I was approached about making a cake for a rehearsal dinner for the groom-to-be who's a huge Star Wars fan - the design was left up to me (how fun is THAT?!) So, I went for something fun - R2 all dressed up for the occasion - notice his bow tie? ;) Chocolate cake with oreo buttercream filling, covered in fondant with fondant details. I formed R2's legs from rice krispie treats, covered in fondant. I think I learned a few things while working on my friend here - one thing being begging your cakes to cooperate does not necessarily work. (Although I'm not above trying again should the need arise!)
