Say 'I Do' with Cake Pops

I'm getting to that age where everyone around me is getting married and everyone has been sending me pictures of wedding cake pops they've seen in all the bridal magazines. Some of these cake pops were ornate and required a steady hand to be able to pull off some of these designs. I will need to practice a lot before I even attempt something like that. I've seen cake pops used alongside the actual wedding cake but mostly, these cake pops are awesome wedding favors. Say 'No' to those dinner mints, candied almonds and personalized M&Ms-- those are so last season. I've seen some pretty cute designs for these wedding cake pops and I mimicked these cute bride and groom ones:

Starbucks Hopping on the Cake Pop Train! Chew! Chew!

This is big news! Starbucks is now selling cake pops at their stores and will promoting them with FREE cake pops to the first 30 customers at every location on March 11th! I love Starbucks and I'm sure they will be great. Just a sign of how big these little pops are getting. See details here.

Tis the Season for Cake Pops

I've been busier than the Keebler Elf this holiday season! I love it though because Christmas is my favorite holiday. I've been keeping myself in the holiday spirit making my Christmas themed cake popsicles since I know I know Santa will be stopping by my house for some! So check out what I have made this year to show Santa what a good lil' baker I've been. (Check out the gallery for more pictures!)

Scary Movie Pops

 

When my brother requested cake popsicles inspired by scary movies for Halloween... I took this opportunity to have some fun and pay homage to some iconic characters from The Grudge, Hell Raiser and the Saw movies. These were very challenging to say the least. I had to place these silver sprinkles on one at a time by hand and shaped the black licorice for the Grudge Pop's hair. So Happy Halloween everyone and stay safe when you're out there getting your spook on! Check out the gallery more photos!

It's show time!

Now showing at the Cake Popsicle Theatre: Cats, Hairspray, Wicked and The Lion King! I had a blast making these Broadway themed cake popsicles for a friend and very happy with how they turned out. I used the theatre posters as the inspiration for the design and set the cake popsicles up on a stage with a city skyline and posters in the background. The design pops did take longer to make but so much fun to mix the colors and use my piping skills on the designs. I will be sad to part with these cake popsicles as they make their way to a party but I know that they will certainly be a hit! Check out the gallery for close up photos!

Halloween Cake Pops!

I love Halloween and the creativity it inspires. This is the best time to throw a party and best excuse to eat lots and lots of sweets. Halloween is a no-calorie day, or at least that's what I tell myself! Aside from working on my costume, I'm also working on some Halloween themed cake pops: skeleton, mummy, jack o'lanterns, witches, eyeballs and just some decorative cake pops that will be an awesome treat for any office or school Halloween party. Let me know if you'll need some for your party!

Cake Popsicle Taste Test Success

First test batch of cake pops.

I've spent the week perfecting my recipes on my cake popsicles. After several trials, I finally got the swing of things and whipped up several dozens of dark chocolate, lemon, strawberry, red velvet, blueberry, carrot cake and toasted coconut & taro. It was quite an ambitious feat but I pulled it off and shared it with friends and family for feedback. So far, so good...so keep the constructive feedback coming! I'm looking forward to doing a lot more cake popsicles so let me know if you want to place an order for an upcoming event.
