Mmm...carbonite Han Solo

by Joe DiStefano, Posted May 15th 2007 @ 8:16AM

Thanks to an Instructable I now remember why and how Han Solo was encased in carbonite. I should also presumably know how to make a dark chocolate bar that resembles the smuggler after Jabba the Hutt encased him in carbonite. I say should because I'm not sure whether I'm handy enough to make the mold.

That said, Chris Koehne provides three relatively simple steps. The first is creating the mold itself using food-grade silicone, the second is melting and pouring the chocolate and obviously the last is removing it from the mold. Koehne made the chocolate bar as a gift for his brother. He's yet to announce any plans to make a chocolate Jabba the Hutt.
