\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">These Star Wars cupcakes are simple and easy for decorators of any level to get into. \u00a0If you like piping, you&#8217;re going love working on Chewbacca and R2 D2. \u00a0The piping on R2 D2 is easy, yet precise- which I always find calming for some reason. \u00a0Chewbacca is just simply easy. \u00a0You can make his fur as neat, or as messy as you choose, which makes it a great cupcake for kids to learn decorating with. \u00a0With the Jawa cupcake, you get to practice piping with a petal tip, which is one of my favourite shapes of tips to use. \u00a0It&#8217;s so versatile. \u00a0Rounding out the five Star Wars cupcakes, the Lightsabers and TIE fighters involve some play with chocolate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Please make sure you head over to\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/mycupcakeaddiction.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">My Cupcake Addiction<\/a>&#8216;s channel where Elise shows me how to make a Star Wars Cake . . . it&#8217;s super cool, it&#8217;s a pull-apart cupcake cake made into light sabers!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Subscribe to Elise&#8217;s channel\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/mycupcakeaddiction\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sOTDhPLx1V0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Star Wars Cupcakes<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_6742site.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-6864\" title=\"TIE Fighter Cupcakes \" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_6742site.jpg\" alt=\"TIE Fighter Cupcakes \" width=\"599\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_6742site.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_6742site-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 599px) 100vw, 599px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">TIE Fighter Cupcakes\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>gold star sprinkles<\/li>\n<li>silver dragees<\/li>\n<li>hexagon cookies<\/li>\n<li>melting chocolate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif;\">Procedure:<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<ol>\n<li>Attach hexagon cookies together with a marshmallow\u00a0in-between, using melted chocolate. \u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Add chocolate\u00a0details to the cookies if desired. \u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Cover cupcake with buttercream, dragees, gold sprinkles, and completed TIE fighters.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">TIE Fighters are the Imperial standard starfighter with a very recognizable sound from the roar of the engines. \u00a0 A great advantage the TIE fighters have is the ability to hover and fly sideways. \u00a0Unfortunately, the TIE Fighters have a lack life-support, hyper-drive and combat shield.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_6731site.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-6860\" title=\"r2d2 Cupcakes\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_6731site.jpg\" alt=\"r2d2 Cupcakes\" width=\"599\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_6731site.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_6731site-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 599px) 100vw, 599px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">R2 D2 Cupcakes<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>white buttercream<\/li>\n<li>blue buttercream<\/li>\n<li>black buttercream<\/li>\n<li>red round dragees \u00a0<\/li>\n<li>small round tips (2-5)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Procedure:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Cover cupcake with a large dome of white icing and pipe on R2 D2 details with blue buttercream fitted with a small round tip. \u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Add black &#8220;knobs&#8221; and red &#8220;light&#8221; to the front of the cupcake dome.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">R2 D2 \u00a0can never seem to stay out of trouble and trouble always found him!
