Sculpting the Head





The obviously most important feature of Yoda is his head and face. I am using Pastillage for his head as well as his eyes. I used non-toxic markers to make his brown eyes and black pupils. Pastillage sets up very quickly, so you have to move fast. But, once it is dried you don't have to worry about anything sagging or cracking.

First I made a mold out of krispy treats. I attached the mold to a piece of pvc pipe. This will allow me to shape the head and then the body.

How to make a 3D Yoda Cake


I am in the gathering-of-information stage for a Groom's Cake. The customer wants a 3D Yoda in a tuxedo, wearing his tattered coat or cape. I will be posting my progress and step by step photos and descriptions.

In this phase I have gathered a number of photos, as you can see below:

Take a look at this cake sculpture from Instructables .com. Very cool and a step by step instruction manual.
