Tutorials - Halloween Cake Pops
Welcome to my favorite holiday of the year,
Halloween!
Halloween!
In this section I will walk you through the
step-by-step process of how to make
Candy Corn Cake Pops.
Candy Corn Cake Pops.
I will be using white cake, though, as always,
you can substitute with any other cake flavor.
Get started by gathering your supplies.
You are going to need:
Lollipop Sticks, Black Food Writing Marker, Black Licorice Pinwheels, Vanilla Candy Melts, Yellow Candy Melts, Orange Candy Melts.
You are going to need:
Lollipop Sticks, Black Food Writing Marker, Black Licorice Pinwheels, Vanilla Candy Melts, Yellow Candy Melts, Orange Candy Melts.
And it's always a good idea to have toothpicks
handy.
Step 1: Using your cake pop recipe of
choice, shape the cake ball into a cone with the pointed end as the top and
flatten the base.
Step 2: Dip the lollipop stick in your
melted yellow candy melts about 1/2 inch.
Step 3: Place that end into the flat base of the pop.
Go about half way.
Step 3: Place that end into the flat base of the pop.
Go about half way.
Step 4: Dip the cake pop into the yellow
candy melts.
Step 5: After the pop is completely
covered, gently tap the stick on the edge of the bowl to drip off the
excess.
Step 6: Let harden for about 5 minutes.
Then, dip the top 2/3 of the pop into the orange candy melts.
Step
7: After the top portion is completely covered, gently tap the stick on the
edge of the bowl to drip off the excess.
Step 8: Let harden for about 5 minutes.
Then, dip the top 1/3 into the vanilla candy melts.
Step
9: After the top portion is completely covered, gently tap the stick on the
edge of the bowl to drip off the excess.
Finally, let harden
completely, then the sky is the limit!
To attach the black
licorice pinwheel arms, cut the licorice to your desired length. Poke a hole in
each side of the pop with a toothpick deep enough so the licorice will stay on
its own. Insert and form the arms any way you would like.
Grab your black food writing marker and get to
work.
Create your own
silly, spooky or scary faces!
There is no doubt
these pops will be the life of the party!
Continuing with another Halloween tutorial!
In this section I will explain how to make
Spider Cake Pops.

Lollipop Sticks, Black Jimmy Sprinkles, Black Licorice Pinwheels, Black Candy Melts, Wilton Candy Eyes.
Also, it's a good idea to always have toothpicks
handy.
Step 1: Using your recipe of choice, roll cake into a ball.
Step 2: Dip a lollipop stick in melted black candy melts about 1/2 inch. Place that end into one side of the ball. Go about half way.
Step 3: Dip the cake pop into the black candy melts. After the pop is completely covered, gently tap the stick on the edge of the bowl to drip off the excess.
*Note: Since these pops will stand upside down, it's best to place them on wax paper to give stability as they dry.
Step 4: As the candy melt hardens, place two Wilton Candy Eyes on one side for the face.
Step 5: Immediately after, sprinkle Black Jimmy Sprinkles all over the cake ball.
Step 6: Cut black licorice pinwheel to desired length.
Applying the legs can be done one of two ways:
Option A: After the pop dries completely, poke a hole with a toothpick at each point you want to attach a leg, deep enough so the licorice stays on its own. Insert and curl the legs as shown in the picture.
Option B: Immediately after step 4, place licorice pieces on the cake ball. With this method you have to work quickly. As the candy melt hardens, place all legs and allow plenty of time to set up.
All done!
Spooky Spider Cake Pops are ready to scare things up
at your Halloween party!
Step 1: Spray paint both Styrofoam discs.
Let dry for 24 hours before continuing with assembly.
Step 2: Apply hot glue to the top rim of
one candlestick holder.
The holders I used were from the Dollar Store.
(I did this on a budget!)
Step 3: Press the top ends of both holders together.
Step 4: Let dry for approx. 5 minutes. The wide ends should be at the top and bottom.
Step 5: Gather up your supplies again.
Step 6: Apply a thin line of hot glue around the side edges of the small Styrofoam disc. Cut the Spider Trim to size, and apply around the edge of the disc.
(I found the trim at Jo-Ann Fabric & Craft Stores)

Spooky Spider Cake Pops are ready to scare things up
at your Halloween party!
I originally made
these Witch Hat Cake Pops
to celebrate Make A Hat
Day.
These pops are
super fun and quite simple to make.
Below I will
explain how to make
Witch Hat Cake Pops!
Step 1: Mold
cake balls into a cone for the top of the hat.
Step 2:
Using Oreo's, separate the cookies from the cream filling to use as the
brims.
Step 3:
Carefully poke a hole in the center of the Oreo with the sharp end of a meat
thermometer (or you can use anything sharp in your kitchen).
Step 4:
Place the cone cake ball on top of the Oreo cookie and stick the lollipop stick
through the hole.
Step 5:
Paint on a tiny bit of Karo syrup just above the brim and sprinkle on the orange
and black nonpareils.
All done in just a
few easy steps!
The presentation of your cake pops is almost
just as important as the cake pops themselves.
Now that you have all of your favorite Halloween treats ready to go, it's time to tie it all together.

Bridal Gown Blog Review
Special Thank to Bridal gown Blog for all the nice things she said about Kays Kupcakes Here are some photo from her dessert table she recently posted on her blog. http://bridalgownblog.blogspot.com/
I look forward to see what she does next !
I look forward to see what she does next !
Speaking of cupcakes...mmmm! I had purchased from one of those daily deal sites (like Groupon) a deal on a dozen push cakes from Kays Kupcakes. I knew I would be celebrating 2 different occasions so, I bought multiple deals to use. I love push cakes - they are cake and frosting in those little plastic tubes - heaven! So, when I called Kay to redeem my deal I explained to her my party theme and that I had already ordered a cake but wanted to do a sweets table. She was totally flexible (and super, super nice too) so, we came up with the idea to do 1 dozen push cakes and 1 dozen cupcakes. This was perfect since I needed to use my little mini bee's! Then, towards the end of our conversation, on a whim, I asked her if she did cake pop's! YEP! She did (pricing was excellent too!) so I ordered 2 dozen cake pop's from her as well! When we finally met in person, we hit it off perfectly! She is so sweet and bubbly - she fits right into the cupcake world! Speaking of the cupcake world, Kays Kupcakes hosted Cupcake Camp OC this year. Cupcake Camp OC is a gathering of cupcake-lovers to raise money for a good cause. This annual event is 100% volunteer-organized and operated by Kay and Tiffany.
So,
the most important thing about cupcakes, push cakes and cake pops are how did
they taste, right?? Well, I can tell you Kays
Kupcakes has gained a permanent FAN in me! The frosting was incredible, the
cake super moist and yummy flavor and the cake pops - amazing! I have had quite
a few cake pops - even tried to make them myself ONCE - and they are not easy!
Kays
Kupcakes, on the other hand, has it down!! (just a little shout out here:
THANK YOU SO MUCH Kay! I am so glad I met you...I am a huge fan!). So, no matter
where you are, the push cake and cake pops can be delivered so keep them in mind
for your next party, you won't be disappointed!
