    5. What was actually asked for was a life size Darth Vader cake....

    This was the best I could do. The light saber and eyes are simply sugar with a little food colouring heated to the hard setting point. It's great fun to make but don't forget a bit of acid (lemon juice) to stop it crystalizing.

    The inside consists of six separate vanilla sponge cakes made with red food colouring in the center and black food colouring at the outside. That way when it was cut into, it looked like brains. The layers were sandwiched together with buttercream, fresh sliced strawberries and some strawberry jam
