Blue Energy

The Drake Hotel requested CakePoPs for an event ... they wanted them individually wrapped and custom tags that were 2 sided. One side had the Drake Dragon Logo and the other side had the event logo "Blue Energy". They got 150 Red Velvet CakePoPs coated in blue with white sprinkles ... and here's what they looked like.

A Greek Wedding Party!

A friend of mine asked me to do some lemon CakePoPs for a family wedding party. Lemon is such a prominent flavor in Greek cuisine so it was a perfect fit. He also wanted custom tags that coordinated with other party favors so I used the same font and blue color that was being used. I coated them in white chocolate with white sprinkles and just a hint of blue sprinkles as he wanted. They really turned out great and heard that they were a big hit! Congrats to the happy couple!!

Cupcake shaped CakePoPs ... Adorable!!

I finally had a chance to use my handy dandy CakePoP mold that makes CakePoPs in the shape of little Cupcakes! I made up a dozen for a special little girl ... Maddy loved them and I liked the way they turned out too!!  Here are some pics!

Butterscotch CakePoPs and Cupcakes .... YUM

I decided to try out a new recipe to make Butterscotch Cupcakes and CakePoPs ... they were a hit with my friends (a.k.a. my guinea pigs ... HA). Made a couple dozen Mini Cupcakes and about 30 CakePoPs. It also gave me an opportunity to try out my hand at decorating them using chocolate transfer sheets ... that I've been dying to try! They looked ok ... but think I need to hone my techniques! It was lots of fun!! Here are some pics ...

I gave these another try the following weekend to do a better job with the transfer sheets ... see pictures toward the end of the post. I think they look a bit better! : )

SECOND TRY ... THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND ---------------------

First Anniversary CakePoPs ...

A very good friend asked me to make a dozen Lemon CakePoPs that he wanted to have sent to his Daughter and Son-in-law for their First Wedding Anniversary. I put my creative hat on and came up with a couple decorating designs and created a custom tag for them as well. I really liked the way they turned out and can see these work for a wedding very well. Take a look ....

Summertime CakePoPs ...

A good friend asked me to make a couple dozen Red Velvet CakePoPs for a July 4th party he was attending ... so I decorated them in patriotic RED, WHITE and BLUE ... here's how they turned out!

I also wanted to try and make some CakePoPs I saw online ... they look just like watermelon when you bite into them ... I used a strawberry/raspberry cake with mini chocolate chips the double dipped them ... first in white then green candy coating. Not only were they tasty, they actually did look like watermelons! See for yourselves!

CLASS OF 2011 CakePoPs!

A co-worker has a Son graduating this year and she asked me to make up some CakePoPs to serve to her family instead of the traditional graduation cake. I make up some Chocolate CakePoPs and decorated them in the school's colors of blue and white. I also designed 3 different tags that featured some graduation type images. I'm sure they will be a hit!!  Congratulations John!
