Cakepops!

Found a new book, Cakepops by Bakerella. This book is right up my alley! Creative yummy balls of cake & frosting dipped into candy melts, and stuck on a stick.

Here are my latest creations!

After baking a cake, crumbling it, and mixing it with frosting- I rolled them into balls. Then after chilling them in the freezer for 15 minutes, I shaped them into a "cupcake" shape using a flower-shaped cookie cutter. Next placed them back into the fridge to keep them from losing their shape while I melted the candy melts.


 I dipped the bottom of the "cupcake" into the melted chocolate candy melts...

Then I quickly dipped part of the lollipop stick into the chocolate and pushed it about halfway into the cakepop.
After the chocolate was dry, I dipped the top of the cupcake into the a different color candy melt. I did a batch of white & one of pink.
Then topped with sprinkles & a skittle!


Then I put each into a bag and tied it with a ribbon.



I also made Owls (for my daughter's 3rd Birthday)...


And turkeys for Thanksgiving....
