“My Artoo Cookies Brings All the the Jedis to My Yard…”

Who said you can’t eat astrometric droids? Esty community member, sugarandflour puts my wife’s cookies to shame (don’t tell her that I said that), by baking her husband scrumptiously geeky Star Wars R2-D2 sugar cookies. Great thing for us is that we do not have to commit to marriage and put up with the in-laws to eat these droid treats. sugarandflour has them on sale for 18 bucks for a 6 pack! Heres a little pitch from sugarandflour about her cookies.

My husband loves Star Wars. I suppose it was only a matter of time before I was asked to make the characters into cookies! Oh – and I made the cutter for this cookie myself, so it’s totally original. These little robot cookies are made with my absolutely perfect sugar cookie dough flavored with vanilla and almond, and frosted with vanilla/almond royal icing. R2D2 stands 5″ tall and is 3″ wide. You will receive 6 R2D2 cookies, nestled safely inside a brown kraft box tied with a satin ribbon. These would also make super party favors.

A baker of delicious geek treats and a fabricator of cookie molds?! Please marry me. Hit the jump for more pics and info about where to get them.

20090804heroescupcakes

A brilliant feat of baking artistry, Mary Bynum’s girlfriend baked her two dozen of the geekiest cupcakes ever to come out of a hot oven.

These heroic cupcakes featured stunning designs based off of the Ghostbusters (cupcake #2), Star Wars (cupcake #6), Thundercats (cupcake #10), Transformers (cupcake #12 & 18), and more. Even the Watchmen’s resident detective, Rorschach got the cupcake treatment (cupcake #18).

Hat’s (or masks or helmets) off to the baker extraordinaire, and a violent shaking fist to Mary Bynum for having such a sweet girlfriend.

I’m so envious…
