Cake technology has gone a long way in the last decade. If I saw this creation by Amanda Oakleaf Cakes on display, I would never guess that it was edible. But according to the Amanda and her staff, the stormtrooper, which stood at 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighed over 300 lbs, fed nearly 600 hungry conventioneers at the Arisia Sci-Fi Convention in Boston, MA.

Wow!! A million calories of pure awesome. Get me an Ice cream, Snow Trooper to go with it and I’ve got myself a weekend. Deliciously amazing art Amanda!
All other bakers should just kill themselves now.
Awesome. Where do you even start to eat it?
Insanely impressive.
Had to watch the making-of pics to wrap my head around its existence.
Also, I think I gained ten pounds just looking at it.
