So I successfully attempted making cake pops! They are quite an undertaking, because one cake makes SO many cake pops, but they looks super cute, and it was fun to make something new!Things that I learned:
- It probably would have been better to use a food processor to more evenly crumble the cake, and to blend in the frosting.
- I would not recommend adding food coloring to the melted candy disks...it makes the consistency harder to work with.
- It takes more than one bag of candy melts per box of cake mix.
- Make sure the cake balls are cold enough before dipping them in the melted chocolate/candy, ore else they will fall off the sticks. =)
Thanks to Bakerella.com for the idea and inspiration for Cake Pops, and for Starbucks for reminding me about them...=)
Also, if you're interested, the Bakerella lady was a guest on Marth
a Stewart to demonstrate a version of cake pops: cupcake pops!
