Life-Sized Han Solo Bread Sculpture Is Just What ‘Star Wars’ Fans Kneaded (Photo)
carbonite-encased Han Solo from “Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back” has been masterfully created by a San Francisco Bay Area bakery and aptly dubbed “Pan Solo.”One House Bakery owners Hanalee Pervan and her mother, Catherine Pervan, spent a month after-hours crafting the uncanny likeness out of dead dough, which is yeastless and often used for baked goods like strudels. Displayed outside of their Benicia, California, shop, Hanalee (who served as the sculpture’s model) told the New York Times, “People are just super interested by it, and you see people smelling it and poking it and they’re just like, ‘What is going on?’ They kind of don’t believe you that it’s made out of dough.”A California bakery spent a month making a 6-foot recreation of Han Solo frozen in carbonite, made entirely of bread.
