This week on the Disney Parks Blog, we celebrated the launch of Star Wars Weekends 2014 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios with new themed header images as well as stories featuring this year’s artwork, gift cards and merchandise at Darth’s Mall. We also shared a special look at a Darth Vader cupcake consumed by the dark side in the pastry display case.
If you enjoyed our Darth Vader cupcake video, check out the behind-the-scenes look at how we did it.
Star Wars Weekends takes place every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from May 16 – June 15, 2014. Most event activities are included in regular theme park admission.

I love the teaser video! It makes me want to have a cupcake right now! 🙂 Great blog! Adding the links to where we can find the other merchandise was a great touch.
What inspired you to add a Darth themed cupcake? Has it been successful thus far compared to the other cupcake designs, in terms of how the kids or kids at heart react? I think it’s a wonderful concept, just want to know how you decide what to make. Like for example, why not a Darth cookie?
Thanks,
Nikki
I LOVED the Darth Vader takes cupcakes to the dark side video! That was great! How fun! I wish my family could be there for Star Wars Weekends 2014, but appreciate Disney Parks Blog sharing the magic through videos, pictures and blogs! Thanks Disney!
