From frozen in fictional carbonite to trapped in bread?

That's right, "Star Wars'" legendary scoundrel Han Solo is in another sticky spot, this one more glutinous than the last.

One House Bakery in Benicia, Calif. has created an impressive, life-sized replica of the frozen Han Solo made entirely out of bread dough – mirroring the fate that the hero, played by Harrison Ford, meets at the end of the 1980 film "Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back."

Um, I suppose.

Not sure but given that there was a Pain-dough-lorian and the bakery used "pain" because it's French for bread then Pan, which is a Japanese word for bread, was used as the same.
