For the Star Wars party, I made Stormtrooper Cupcakes. In order to make them, I baked chocolate cupcakes, then topped them with Stomtrooper decorated marshmallows which topped the vanilla icing. The black icing was used to form the expressions/facial outlines of the stormtroopers.
I chose to make this dish as it contributed to the very beginnings of the hero's journey for A Force Awakens--they destroyed the village after being instructed by Kylo Ren, and after this, capture Poe. Shortly following this, we meet Rey, and begin to follow her story as it propels. While the Stormtroopers are not the core figures that propel the entirety of the plot, they are at the very early beginnings of the movie's conflict and intensity.
I chose the title as the white coloring of the icing and marshmallows, as well as the shape of the marshmallows, resemble the look and style of the Stomtroopers. The handmade design of the Stormtroopers "faces" allowed for the simple name to be very general, understandable, and accurate to the dessert.
