Made for my middle son's 9th birthday- R2D2 is the tallest cake I've made so far! He was a big challenge for me, but luckily there was a lot of inspiration cakes and helpful instructions/details to be found. His body is made of 2 layers of double stacked 8 inch cakes. I used dowels to help support it all. His head is RKT shaped in a bowl. I used fondant (for the first time- homemade marshmallow fondant too!) to cover his head and make the blue details on his body. His legs are also RKT that I tried covering in white chocolate (it didn't go as smoothly as I anticipated.) I added a frosting covered marshmallow for the "lens" (for lack of proper term) on his head, held on by a toothpick. and red licorice strings attached from his body to his legs.
