soft play, vader cake, birthday

Arthur's 5th birthday party today. 5. Already. Blimey. In a big church-hall-like place with lots of big soft-play things. Soft play is a one of those things that's better than it used to be. We didn't have soft play when I was 5, just hard play.

Even at a party for 5-year olds, I end up in the kitchen. Beyond the counter and the parents you can see The Great Custardo working his magic on the kids. A top man. The children adored him.

The Vader cake. This was Sainsbury's response to the Star Wars cake dilemma. We're going to try making a Millennium Falcon cake next week.

You can guess what he's wishing for.

I am in the process of searching for ideas for a darth vader cake for my son's 4th birthday party. I came across your vader cake and was amazed. Do you have a pan of some sorts or any kind of directions on how you made it? I can not find a pan anywhere and that is all my son wants for his birthday - a darth vader cake... Please help if you can.
