So I was running security for this thing, which means keeping people away from it for nine million hours while they like mentally prepared themselves for the Grand Cutting Ceremony, winding a line through an already awkwardly set up dealers room, and keeping back the throngs of photographers who wanted EXTREEEEEME CLOSE UPS. Arisia only had, I dunno, like 3200 people at it this year. Yet somehow, about 12,000 people came up to me and said "The stormtrooper is a lie!!!" before collapsing into convulsive self-congratulatory laughter. I would have at least liked it if they had varied it a little, with "I used to assault rebel bases like you, but then I took a cake server to the knee." or "These aren't the cakes you're looking for." or ANYTHING. But no. "The stormtrooper is a lie." Every. Single. Time. I swear, if I had any marbles left to lose, they would have been gone then.

Sure, if the whole head comes off first. The halfhearted "saw off the skullcap" route to dismemberment is what puts off the punters.
-
She is clearly a genius! Who has a very high opinion of Stormtroopers.
-
Bah. My friends and I haven't gone in ages. Now I wish we had... wait.. no.. I spent too much money that weekend as it was.
-
HOLY CRAP. I just went to an awesome little video game store down the street from that cake place in Winthrop, MA last weekend. Meanwhile, I haven't been to Arisia in Boston in a number of years. I've been between jobs and cutting down on the number of cons. Though that is the first nerd con I ever went to,
-
With a Troi head on top. Because who hasn't had one of them.
-
Save me some helmet please?
-
I have a friend who knows the girl who made this... I now feel like I have connections! O-O
-
And it was delicious.
-
MINE TOO! great, or creepy, minds must truly think alike, lol!
-
Not exactly the same, but along the same vein, was my first thought when I saw this: Who ended up eating the crotch??
-
This was from the Arisia SF convention this past weekend in Boston!
-
Number of hours since article went live: 7+ Number of comments on how well-endowed the cake is: surprisingly 0.
-
The Japanese.
-
I want his left foot and I call first piece.
-
EAT ME!
-
Then there would be the Lucas problem.
-
Now that's an impressive act of cakery.
-
The Trooper is a lie.
-
Hey, if Star Trek could make Vegas...
-
Isn't he a little short to be a Stormtrooper?
-
A PARSEC IS NO.... oh, wait u used it properly. Never mind good Sir. *Lifts Hat*
-
Don't u know the ass is the best part of a Sweet Trooper? It's full of Chocolate Pudding. I would eat that sweet ass. :P
-
That's amazing. I'm going to pretend it's a late birthday gift to me.
-
Question: If they made a life size Jabba cake (with jelly drool and a pudding center) would anyone partake in eating it?
-
This is so simple, I'm surprised it hasn't been done. Maybe not the casino part, but at least the bar.
-
I'm still waiting for some genius to make a Star Wars themed casino with a restaurant that looks like the Cantina Bar with slave Leia's as waitresses
-
Now this is the kind of cake I would have liked for my birthday. Though truth be told I'd probably go after the rice krispies legs instead of the cake part.
-
didn't Data have a dream like this once?
-
'Aren't you a little delicious for a stormtrooper?' If I had a nickel for every Halloween night I've been asked that...
-
At least they didn't bake a Bib Fortuna Cake...yeesh.
-
D'aaaaww, how adorable! I could just eat him up!
-
The Stormtrooper is a lie!
-
The fact that he's waving like "hey guys come and eat me!" is just icing on the cake
-
George Lucas: Shit, we need to add cake, flying cake in 3d... 1 per hour in every episode. Do it now!
-
I find this immensely creepy, personally.
-
proving some fans are so creative and like star wars that they will even use their talents to make cakes into a life size stormtrooper. surprised the person did do Darth vader instead
-
((Death Star I - Docking Bay)) "Hey down there! Can you give us a hand?!" *Blam! Blam-Blam!* OM-NOM-NOM-NOM!!... "You were right, Chewie! These guys ARE delicious!!"
-
I'd like to think that the Ewoks did something similar with the defeated Troopers at the end of "Jedi".
-
Aah, the beautiful moment when universes collide... "*gasp, wheeze* Grand Moff... Lecter, what is the meaning of this?" "Well, Lord Vader, the man disobeyed orders- he needed to be punished. And, to be honest, this ship is hideously low in decent food... Care for a slice. "...*gasp, wheeze*... Oh, go on, then."
-
So, not only can't Storm Troopers fire at somebody without missing by a parsec, now they can't even say "eat me" without serious repercussions.
-
It's not a Troi cake... It is a cellular peptide cake, with mint frosting
-
Cheer up pal, tomorrow's just a day away.
-
Anyone else thinking of that creepy Star Trek TNG episode with the Troi cake?
-
I'd eat that gun.
-
I don't know why, but I'm a little freaked out that someone decided their slice needed to come from the ass cheek. Rather than, you know, where everyone else seems to be taking their slice from.
