Re: Cake poppers
I'm making my cake pops for my wedding. They are pretty time consuming and take a little practice to make them look really good. If you dont have a lot of people going to your event and you have the time definitely give it a try! otherwise there are a ton of people who can make them for you.

my best friend is getting these for her wedding. It is a beautiful glass jar filled with truffles and chocolate hearts that has a tag that says 'please take your sweets and find your seat.' it will also double as a favor and seating cards. ps the truffles taste AMAZING

Re: Cake poppers
If you want, try out a batch of them to see how the process is. It's actually pretty and easy, and as long as you have the right materials, not time consuming. I made them for our e-party (pics in DIY album) and the biggest hassle was not having my Styrofoam block - FH threw it away ![]()
lol. I improv'd and did 20 at time, using my sugar canisters to hold everything up. I made the cake balls the night before to let them set up in the fridge, and the dipping/decorating went really well. Plus...so delicious! FH's family told me to bring cake pops for the next party or we can't have any presents ![]()

The general directions are:
- bake a cake according to package directions, let cool, and crumble in a big bowl.
- mix in about 1/2-3/4 of a can of frosting until moist.
- roll into balls, place on a plate or baking sheet
- dip lollipop sticks in melted chocolate and pop into the cake balls, let set - this REALLY helps the sticks take hold
**I highly highly suggest getting a Chocolate Pro from Michael's or Joann. makes life so much easier! **
For bride & groom, these are pretty awesome directions:

I didn't use a kit, but all the materials were very easy to get. For the cake pops, I used half a can of buttercream icing and a betty crocker devil's food cake mix. For the the oreo truffles, it's a package of oreos turned into crumbs in a food processor mixed with a bar of cream cheese.
For 70 pops altogether:
- 2 14 oz bags of Wilton white chocolate candy melts. You can get these at walmart, joann, michael's, etc.
- 1 8oz bottle of whatever color Non-Pareils. You might need a smaller bottle for back up in case of spills. I used the Wilton Spring mix and I bought it from Stop & Shop.
- Package of 6' lollipop sticks - got off amazon
- Packages of cellophane treat bags - also got off amazon
I originally had a styrofoam block that I bought at Michael's and it REALLY is a necesssity. You can get away with not buying them if you have big blocks of foam left over from tv boxes, etc.

What's a chocolate pro?
It's an electric melting pot - this is one
Otherwise, you have to melt chocolate in the microwave which doesn't stay smooth and could burn...or melt it in a double boiler which has the same issues. With chocolate pro, it melts very quickly and stays super smooth and easy to work with.
