Simple, yummy, precious, tasty POPS :)

So I have become oh so intrigued by cake pops lately and have tested them out a time or two. So when I helped host a couples shower for some friends I decided part of my contribution would be some cake pops. I've decided to add a pic here of how they turned out ;)

Not bad right? ;)

After the shower was all said and done the bride to be and her mother decided to ask me to make cake pops for the actual big day. I mulled over the idea with my friend Allison before agreeing to do the job. This is when the discussion of cake pops started between the two of us.

We discussed that I made the cakes with the help of Betty Crocker and that the whole makin' a cake into pretty pops part was really my forte'. Well Allison makes an amazing cupcake...from scratch. I've been blessed enough to taste test a time or two and trust me, they are to die for. It was then that we had our ah-ha moment. It might just be a great idea to partner up and make some cake balls. Perfect combo right? Tasty AND pretty :) Obviously she would do the tasty, and I the pretty :)

We happened to have plans with each other that weekend that involved outdoor music, our families and the need for a small yet tasty menu. Well why not let this be our first go at these tasty, pretty pops?! So we did and I have to say...I think we are a match made in heaven :) Here are some pics of said pops....try not to lick the screen ok? :)

Now on to making the cake balls....
(with maybe a little taste testing here and there..shhh)

Now after some chillin' they need some dippin' ...and some sprinklin'

Now how bout some cuteness enjoying the finished product!

p.s. after a couple of deep breaths and a panic attack we(yes, Allison has decided to do the job with me...thank goodness)said yes to doing the wedding pops and we are so honored to add a little tasty and a little pretty to Eva and David's special day! Those pics coming soooooon ;)
