It's a Christmas Cakepop

Thanksgiving was lovely and I love all the smells of different food wafting through the house but I am one of the people. The Christmas people. By the time Thanksgiving rolls around I am almost dying of impatience to decorate the house. No matter how much I want to I just can't skip Thanksgiving and decorate before we sit down and eat our Thanksgiving meal. That being said, when I started making cake pops this weekend it was for a very special friend who happens to be my EMT Partner. He received a big promotion and today is his last day as my partner. The plan was to make secret ninja cake pops because he is a secret ninja taking over the world...but what happened was...Christmas music and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. I made one ninja cake pop and some how the entire batch turned into Christmas cake pops. I saw one little girl walking in the parade with a red Berra and I was lost in Christmas. So my partner got a cake pop gift of Christmas with one secret ninja!



Step 1: Bake your cakes (use your good ole box variety or your grandma's passed down generation recipe)

Step 2: After cake cools crumble that baby up and mix in your frosting (I used cream cheese frosting   

            because I made a red velvet cake)

Step 3: Form your cake balls with a small ice cream scoop or your hands and let chill at least 10 minutes in

            freezer. I also dip my Lolly-pop sticks in melted chocolate and stick them in the cake balls before

            I chill them so they are sturdier to dip. If you are new to cake popping and need more detailed

            instructions go to: Bakerella she the Queen and Master of all things cake pops and her

            tutorials are awesome.

Step 4: Dip those cake pops in the candy melt or chocolate of your choice and decorate like your Van

            Gogh looking up at a Starry Night.





You need your edible disco dust. Christmas was made to sparkle.

If it is a stocking/ornament/light and it doesn't sparkle you better

keep it cause this girl wants glitter in her Christmas.




Now Cupcakes...I am working on my royal icing work but we aren't

there yet so I got these cuties a my local cake decorating store

and they are too cute for Christmas words!

I like to take the first two or three

cake pops and test out all my decorations to see what

I am going to like best. Don't be shy...let your inner Pollock run free.

This is what I am talking about! Let it sparkle and snow! Really

I hate the snow and the cold which is why I live in Las Vegas

but I like the cuteness of it anyways...
? PS: I promised you a ninja...
