Help needed... Star Wars Cookie cutters



Oh, aren´t these fantastic? I just love them and I bet my boys would love them to. Too bad that none of the Williams Sonoma items get sold here and that you can´t buy them from their website, if you live outside the US.
If anybody is willing to help me obtain these cookiecutters, I would be very grateful. We would work something out, I am sure.

Recipy quiche

I saw that someone asked for the recipy for the quiche, no problem. But I will be honest, there is not a real recipy that I use. I just cut up leak, don´t ask me how much. I don´t know, I buy them in a bundle and that is what I cut up. Fry some cut up onions and add the leak and fry until cooked, add some diced ham or bacon and put aside.
Then I take a pre-prepared piece of (Is it called ...) puff dough (I buy it in the store), I know... very bad, but I think it is too much work for a working mum, but if you know how to make it, make it fresh, that will be even tastier.

Once the dough is in the spring mold, I add some bread crums to soak any moisture, then you add the leak mixture (make sure that you drain excess fluids...).

then I make a mixture of 250 ml cream , 6 eggs, 250 g cheese and herbs, add whatever you fancy, I add salt, pepper, nutmeg, and paprikapowder, but that is whatever you like. I pour this over the leak and make sure that it mixes well in the whole quiche. I don´t put the cheese on top, because it didn´t work out for me, so know I add it in the cream mixture and it spreads in the whole quiche.

Back it in the oven on 180 degrees for about 40 to 45 minutes. That is it, hope this works out for you.

But while I was looking for what a mold was called, I came across these, aren´t they wonderful? I just looked for a pumpkin pie recipy on the web, because I bought some pumpkin on the market. These would make lovely decorations. Too bad Williams Sonoma doesn´t ship to Europe, they look fantastic. If I would go to the States I would have to bring a very big wallet...

Pirate cookie cutter - update

I saw this cookie cutter on a UK website, but it is out of stock. Does anybody know were I can buy one of these without rediculous shipping costs. Found a website in the states and they asked 32 dollars shipping costs, a bit steep for an order of 6 dollars... Or maybe someone is willing to send me one in exchange for something from Belgium, that is also a possibility. I have found a dutch webshop called De leukste TaartenShop that sells the cookie cutter and I have ordered it together with some icing and stuff to try and make 'spiderman' cupcakes for my eldest son.

I envy all you Americans that you can buy all those lovely cake moults and cupcake decorations.
Luckily, I managed two times to get a Williams Sonoma cake moult out of the States. The DH of a lady I work with brought them with him when he was in the States on a business trip. Imagine him when he asked for a train shaped cake moult... But I am very thankful that he wanted to do this for me, since the moults are quite heavy, so shipping is expensive.
So now my sons have the coolest cakes in school.
