I got him a new barbecue (that my dad and friend Raelene were racing to put together in 2 hours before Jer got back!) so I planned for burgers, steaks, and hot dogs. I made a huge yummy pasta salad, and had lots of chips and dips choices. My mom made Carbonite Jello, complete with Han Solo, three different kinds of cupcakes, and a Death Star watermelon! Here are some close-ups of her amazing work:"Cheesecake baked in almond-flavored cupcakes with cherry filling, topped with edible stars from a Galaxy Far, Far Away":
"I am your reeses filled chocolate cupcake with chocolate butter cream frosting topped with edible Vader and Light Sabers":
"Pumpkin Pie filled cupcake with chai butter cream frosting topped with a white chocolate Yoda I am, yesssss, hmmmmm":
And by pumpkin pie filled, she means exactly that- there is a real, homemade mini pumpkin pie inside each cupcake!! YUM!!
I can't decide which one was my favorite... they were all super delicious, and so creative!This watermelon was carved with stamp carving tools, to look like the Death Star. We had a lot of fun the next day destroying that Death Star and eating it!! :)
I am so thankful for my mom and her help in making Jer's birthday very memorable! Everybody was in awe of the cupcakes, and luckily there were enough to try one of each!
If you'd like to check out some of my mom's other Star Wars cakes that she has made for Jer, here are some links for you!

Your mom is amazing!! Those are so super cool!
Cup cakes and desserts are a must part whenever a party is planned. May be we also look for some venues in NYC only for my sister's official success promotion party. She is happy on her such big achievement. Mom and dad are also proud of her big deed. So am I! will invite all our dear ones for a lovely dinner next weekend.
