LOS ANGELES, Oct. 15 (UPI) — As fans eagerly await the Dec. 18 release of The Force Awakens, chef Josh Graves has started to treat the Star Wars faithful to some impressively crafted chocolate treats.

Graves, a pastry chef at new American restaurant Faith & Flowers in downtown Los Angeles, decided to create the savory Star Wars edibles after walking down the toy section of Target.

“I looked in the toy section and saw all these Star Wars toys,” he said to Yahoo Movies. “I saw the Millennium Falcon and thought, ‘Whoa, I want to make a mold of that.'”

After completing a perfect white chocolate covered rendition of the iconic starship, Graves then completed his Jedi training and made more pieces including a dark chocolate infused Darth Vader headpiece and a storm trooper helmet filled with marshmallow passion fruit.

“These aren’t the mignardises you’re looking for….” Faith & Flower posted on their official Facebook account along with a picture of Graves’ work.

The unlisted speciality items are only available as part of Faith & Flower’s mignardises board, which includes honeycomb candy and chocolate truffles. The only way to obtain them is to appear as a fan of the films. “I told servers if someone seems like a fan of Star Wars, we’ll send it out to them,” the pastry chef said to The Hollywood Reporter.
