Where's Frosty??


75 snowmen for the holidays.

These were inspired by Bakerella, http://www.bakerella.com/snowman-cake-pops/ snowman cake pops from her new book. I had promised to deliver 75 pieces and was wondering how I would pull it off after doing a few. You need lots of patience and time. Both of which I didn't have that day. I did them in steps as to not burn out. You also need space for 150+ cake balls, they were in every fridge and freezer. I did all choc. cake which when going with light colour candy coating would not be recommended. I had to use white candy wafers when really I wanted super white (only in US). Assembly was time consuming but I was really happy with how they turned out. I would recommend skipping the double ball snowman and just doing hat and head next time. If you are going to try this it's vital to add flocoat candy oil to candy prior to colouring paste.

Monster pops for Halloween

For the school kids.


These were for my two boys to take for there Halloween Parties. Our madness behind monsters was that they could scare away the "sugar bugs". They also co-ordinated with the labels on the toothbrushes they gave to each class mate. Yes I'm in dental. These are upside down mini cupcakes held on the coloured popsicle stick by melted choc. and then iced with grass tip. The eyes and mouth are fondant. I made a teacher version that was a double high cupcake. My wrist was shot after piping 50 of these....worth it though. The monster were obvious too friendly as my boys both had cavities in November :(
