Cake pops! (finally)

Despite being unwell over Christmas I eventually managed to make cake pops.

They were a lot trickier than I expected and I think a lot of practise will be needed to get them perfect but overall I was pleased with the result.

I went for fresh cranberry and vanilla flavour cake coated in white chocolate candy melts. The decorations were all white and blue which looked really wintery and festive.

I used a very dark blue glitter dust, white pearl balls, aqua sugar crystals and blue glitter flakes. This contrasted well with the cranberry red colour middle but it did prove a little problematic coating the red sponge mix with white candy melts as it required a few coats to stop the red showing through.

I wrapped each one individually in cellophane and finished with a blue ribbon.

I have taken photos for a tutorial so watch this space for more details but for now I leave you with the critics Malcolm, James and Eloise who all gave them a thumbs up!
