Bringing Star Wars cupcakes to Sci Fi

[MommyinHonduras]

My son loves SW. We are going to HS for his birthday and planning to eat at Sci Fi and am wondering if I can put in a request to have the SW cupcakes from Backlot for our desserts, or can I buy them and bring them over before? I would have loved the SW breakfast but since it will not be offered in Sept, looking at my options.

My son loves SW. We are going to HS for his birthday and planning to eat at Sci Fi and am wondering if I can put in a request to have the SW cupcakes from Backlot for our desserts, or can I buy them and bring them over before?

1) You must buy them and bring them into the eatery.
2) They will not go and get them.
3) You must keep them with you.
4) The wait staff serve them.
5) They are not allowed in the kitchen area
. . . there is possible contamination, and not worth the liability risk to the eatery
. . . an eatery does not know where the food has been
. . . an eatery does not know if you altered the food
6) There is no SW Breakfast in Sept, sic there are no more SW Breakfast.
7) Why not just go to Backlot after breakfast for the cupcakes and celebration?
.
NOTE: Lots of people bring in food items, like cakes, and keep the food with them. Unless WDW makes the food item and has control of it through the serving process, it is not worth the risk. Can you imagine the lawsuits if they served bad food and someone got sick. Worse, if the food contaminated the kitchen and others got sick.

You could purchase the cupcakes and bring them with you to Sci Fi, but the seating arrangement and lighting level in the restaurant make a celebration difficult. Because everyone is watching the Sci Fi clips and cartoons it is dark in the restaurant. Also, the majority of "tables" are cars so everyone is seated facing forward. There are just a few regular tables set between the front and back of a car so you could ask for one of these, but most people prefer to sit in the cars. There are a few small round tables in the back that seat 4.

The Sci Fi dining reservation page has photos of the cars and in the first photo you can see the tables between the front and back ends of the car on the lower left:

I'd suggest having your son wear his "it's my birthday" badge and you telling the waiter it's his birthday. SF does birthdays "in excess". Not only is there a free dessert (often a sundae), but they'll have everyone in the restaurant sing. You can choose to add the cupcake or not, but you'll have to buy it that morning and bring it with you.
