When you first make cake pops, they are quite tricky. They are quite time consuming, but once you get the hang of it, they are fun to make. With Halloween coming up, I really enjoyed making these eerie eyeball cake pops.
Ingredients (makes 12):
3 plain cupcakes
3 tablespoons of frosting - I used Betty Crocker's Vanilla frosting
Cake Pop sticks
A tube of smarties
White chocolate cake covering
Writing icing pens
First you make the cake balls by mixing the crumbled cupcakes and frosting together and make into balls.
Melt the white chocolate and dip the sticks into it and then into the cake balls.Put into the freezer to cool.
Prepare the smarties by using the writing icing to make eyes.
Now get the cake pops out of the freezer, dip in the white chocolate and add a smartie eye.
Finish by adding red icing to make veins.
If you are going to make these I have written a detailed post full of hints and tips about how to make cake pops here.
