Cake Pops Take 2

When I made the cake pops on Monday I only had time to make half of the batch so I stuck the rest of the dough in the fridge. I also ran out of dipping chocolate. Today I didn't end up subbing so I had time to finish them up.


Cute, no? I decided to practice some different ways of decorating them. Obviously I need some practice (especially on my scrollwork), but I didn't think they looked too bad.


Weird thing, though, 3 of the cracked, so either my candy was too hot or the cake was too cold, or a combination of both. That didn't happen on my first batch. I don't think I did anything different except that the dough had been in the refridgerator, then I rolled it, then froze it for 15 minutes. So I should have cut the freezer time to 10 maybe?


Anyway, I'm learning. Also I didn't have to dip these twice because I used red instead of white, so you couldn't see the cake through them. Yay!

You are truly amazing!!! Those are the cutest things I've ever seen. The girls loved their valentines, that was so cute of you. I gave each of them a bag with the extra suckers. You are so thoughtful to do that for them.
