Cake Pops!

Cake pops have long been the bane of my existence.  They are so cute, and look so easy, and taste so good, and there are so, so many possibilities.  Yet, she's always had a problem making them look pretty.

Today, we decided to give them another shot, since there has been expressed interest in them.  We had some help from cute little hands, and it was quite fun.  I have to repeat to myself "Practice makes perfect."  I don't know why I thought I'd be a pro the first couple of times I did them.

Here is what I learned:
1.  Melt more candy than you think you'll need.
2.  Make the balls smaller.
3.  It will probably take a few times to get them perfect.
4.  If they look lumpy, cover them in sugar or other kinds of sprinkles, and no one is the wiser.

Here are the froo-eets of mine and Holly's endeavors today:


OOH!




















AAHHH!

So, I think that with a little practice, we will be able to add cake pops to the menu!
