Cake Pops are a delightful creation that combine the best of cake, cupcakes, and truffles. A cake pop adventure is a fun family activity that lets your imagination run wild - and making them for Halloween is no exception!!
We make a variety of Cake Pops with different flavors, textures, and colors, but what we always aim for is a "WOW" on the first bite of every pop. Hand rolled, stuck, enrobed, and decorated, each confection has a heaping helping of love from start to finish thanks to a custom recipe we developed after LOTS of trial and error, focus groups, tastings, and more. And because each batch is made entirely by hand, we are constantly tweaking aspects of our recipe to squueze as much awesomeness out of it as possible.
Of course we'd prefer you get your Cake Pops from us, but if you do them at home, or are planning on doing them at home, here are a few tips that we find useful:
-do not skimp on your ingredients. Quality in, quality out.
-a small ice cream scoop is worth it's weight in gold.
-when dipping the cake, make sure it's at room temperature. Tempered chocolate constricts as it cools, and cool cake expands as it warms. You don't want your pops to crack upon completion, right?
-mix your cake and icing while warm. In fact, do it right out of the oven as soon as the cake has finished baking. Warm cake blends really well with the icing and helps ensure uniformity of the ingredients.
-most importantly, take the Chef's privilege and be sure to keep a few aside for yourself. Besides, quality is #1, right???
Have yourself a sweet day, and if you're undertaking a Cake Pop adventure, Good Luck!!! (And give us a call if it doesn't turn out so well...)
