Last night, Janell Brown of One Sweet Slice in South Jordan won the Food Network's "Cupcake Wars" and a $10,000 prize.

She and her assistant Kristen Cold also had their 1,000-cupcake display served at Star Wars party, where satisfied fans deemed the cupcakes as "Out of this galaxy!"

The "Cupcake Wars" contest had a Star Wars theme, so Brown and Cold did a cupcake to show the battle between "light" and "dark," using pepper, dark dark chocolate ganache, and whipped mascarpone icing. Their Darth Vader cupcake had a chocolate wrapper, was filled with milk chocolate, and garnished with a Death Star. The Yoda cupcake had a key lime-coconut theme, and the Luke Skywalker cupcake was a maple brown sugar with peanut butter and cream cheese icing, topped with a "light saber" shard of blue sugar. 

One Sweet Slice is a custom cake and cupcake shop located at 106 S. and Redwood Road in South Jordan, Utah.
