"This one old 434 unit had the most spectacular recipe for Cavaellin creams—snappy little cookies from the Cavaell system filled with exotic fruit."
―Strono Tuggs, The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook[1]

The 434 unit was a type of kitchen droid. The Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs encountered an old 434 unit that knew a recipe for Cavaellin Spice Creams—a type of cookie from the Cavaell system—that Tuggs considered spectacular.[1] In 34 ABY,[2] Tuggs included the recipe as well as a mention of the droid in his first cookbook, The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook, claiming the recipe was to die for.[1]

Behind the scenes

In the new Star Wars canon, a 434 unit was mentioned in the 2019 cookbook Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook, which was written by Chelsea Monroe-Cassel and Marc Sumerak.[1] The droid originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it was known as the 434-FPC Personal Chef Droid and was first mentioned in Galladinium's Fantastic Technology, a 1995 supplement published by West End Games for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[3]
