Spring Cake Pop Bouquet

Cake Pop Bouquet

Yesterday I tried my hand at making 

cake pops. I've seen various ways of 

making them here on the Internet, but it was 

Alisa Burke's Easter Egg Pops that really 

inspired me to try my hand at making some!

What I learned from making my cake pops
is that they aren't as easy as I thought
they would be LOL...I think having a partner
to help you would make it a much easier.

The other thing I did differently then Alisa was to
melt the frosting for about a min in the microwave
just enough to make it slightly pourable which
made it much easier to mix without having to use
your hands.

I tried a Wilton's lollipop Party mold 

and it actually worked well but with 

this particular mold only the cupcake 

actually resembled a cupcake the

others just looked like shapes and 

are hard to tell that they were

actually a party hat and balloon!

Awhile back I blogged about 

scoring these Vintage mini tin molds 

 at the thrift store. I thought they would be 

great to use in my art. I actually did use 

one  in a shrine.  I never really thought I'd 

actually use them in the kitchen, but they 

were perfect size to mold the cake in.

Some of the tins I sprayed lightly with Pam 

cooking spray and then did some without 

the Pam and they definitely came out easier 

with the Pam. 

Another thing I did differently then Alisa was to lay my 

pops on wax paper once I had sprinkled them since 

I didn't have a colander with holes big enough to fit 

the sticks through.  They looked just fine once they 

hardened and I was able to easily fit them into the 

treat bags. 

The really fun part is using all the

sprinkles, jimmies and colored sugars

they have out now!

If you want more ideas for Cake Pops 

I found a cool book on amazon!
