Is there ever too much cake? Not if it is made into cake pops! The past week, I was a little caked out and lacking inspiration. I turned to my family for inspiration and my son mentioned leaves. Initially, I didn't have a clue and I made Turkey Cake Pops. After all, how would I shape a cake pop into a leaf and make it look like a leaf? When I went to pack up my Halloween baking stuff, I found the solution!
I made these fall shapes using the Wilton Harvest Mini Cookie Cutters. I think I have a set of these mini cutters for about ever holiday and this is a great use for them! I have finally finished recycling all of the cake I had left over, and just squished it right into the cutter. I did find it easier to unmold them after refrigerating for about 10 minutes, so I just worked with 4 at a time.
I am always at a lack for ideas when it comes to displaying cake pops, but I don't lack coffee cups!
When I first dipped the cake pops, I wasn't sure how I liked them, or how recognizable they were. After adding some details, they turned out pretty good! By the way, the two toned brown thing is an acorn, if case you were wondering!
With the holidays keeping us all busy and in a rush, don't forgot to.....

Not only do they sound delicious, but your cake pops are beautifully cut and decorated. Love the fact that you used cookie cutters rather than rolling the cake in a ball, and the coffee cup is the perfect touch for the display!
ReplyDeleteWith all the blog parties out there, and at one of the busiest times of the year, it means an awful lot that you take the time to share your talent on “A Little Birdie Told Me…” Tuesdays at Rook No. 17!
