Mummy Spooky Cake Pops

I received a few emails asking for links to the Mummy Cake Pops I made last year for Jordan's Halloween Party at School. Because this is what I will be making again I decided to share my version of the
Yummy Mummies by Bakerella again this Halloween for your little spooks to enjoy!

FOR SCHOOL:
All children can have allergies to foods like peanuts but special needs children seem to have these allergies at a higher rate. It is a good idea when ever shipping your little hero off to school with a new batch of HeroCakePops to make sure they are labeled with ingredients for the teachers.

Now turn to page 131 in Bakerella's Cake Pop book and lets make some Yummy Mummies!

First we need one mini-hero dressed as a bee....Check!

Then we need to bake our cake - let it cool - mix it with 1/3 can of frosting - roll cake pops!

The great thing about Mummies is they can be what ever color you like best! I dipped my cake pops in white chocolate (candy melts) This part is all up to the artist/baker (or the baker's helpers)!

Then we need some green and white Yummy Mummies!! After baking the basic cake pop (I used a store bought white cake mix for ease) and cooling the mummies were ready to be painted with candy melts.I first coated all the mummies in white like described in the book. Then once all mummies were made I used green gel based coloring (never water) and tinted the rest of the white candy melt booger green! I then used a disposable piping bag to pipe on the mummy wrap!

Remember the more mess the more it looks like a Mummy! I hope everyone has Happy and

safe Happy Halloween!

Working Woman Heroine Cake Pops.

One of my really good friends and co-workers asked me to make him some cake pops for his new bride and some of her friends after she tried one of my cake pops and really like it. I was more then happy to do this and make them extra special because seeing how happy he is after all these years makes me happy. His path to a good woman has been long and much harder then a good man like him deserved but now he has found a sweet, honest and loving woman who just happens to be beautiful to boot. I have not been blessed with the chance to get to know her really well yet but I know she is a hard working woman helping my friend raise his two cute-as-a-button little girls. She wears a uniform like me everyday to work (not exactly like mine but not satin and lace either) and that is what inspired me when I sat down to start creating a special batch of Working Woman Heroine Cake Pops.

First I painted my chocolate bows and buttons using candy molds I purchased at CandyMoldCentral.

I melted the candy melts and removed my cake pops I made the night
before using Bakerella's basic cake pop recipe like always. I made milk-chocolate cake
with a dash of vanilla flavoring in the cream cheese frosting mix.

I used the basic cake pop construction found in Cake Pops by Bakerella and
some recipe flavoring tips found in Martha Stewarts175 Cupcakes. If you
don't have these books I suggest you go get them. They are such a treasure
of ideas and inspirations.
I rolled all the cake pops in honey Graham crumbs after dipping them in
white chocolate.

They might make us wear man clothes to work but
on the inside it is all satin and lace!
They can't hide our cupcake smiles!

Now it is time for our working woman to scrub her face,
brush her teeth and rest her weary head to get
ready for another long day.
