Relive the 'Star Wars' Phenomenon With the Han Solo Carbonite Cake

We all held our breath when Hans Solo ran into the life-threatening predicament of being frozen in the slab of carbonite.

With this wonderful culinary creation you don’t have to fear that moment; simply savour it. The Han Solo carbonite cake is an awesome recreation of that iconic moment. Made by the people at ‘Tickly Moo’ based on a request by a 'Star Wars' and cake lover, the Hans Solo carbonite cake is the perfect gag delicacy for all your friends that are strong with the ‘force.’

Now all we need is a a cake recreating the Death Star blowing up (but we wouldn’t want to make the Dark Side mad).
