Cake pops...

Have you tried the latest fad? Cake pops...okay, so, I have been wanting to dabble with the latest sweet treat...but, I wasn't sure what they were like or what to do. After tasting some at a tailgate, I thought I would try them out...

First you make a cake, crumble it and add some frosting. The cake pops I had were really sweet, so, I added some cream cheese to the frosting.



Then, the fun part starts...roll them up into balls.


Dip in candy coating and decorate.


Last weekend we were invited to a friend's house, unfortunately, we had to cancel so, I made the cake pops and took it to his office...


Here is a closeup of the "flowers"? I put a styrofoam ball in the terra cotta pot, layered on some Spanish moss and inserted the cake pops through the flower cut outs...cute, eh?


The reason we had to cancel on our friend is that my bachelor uncle had been admitted into ICU/CCU. For a while it looked really grim, but after a week, he was able to move to a regular room...I made these for the ICU/CCU staff...they took great care of Uncle Kunio...
