Cake pops!
At church on Saturday was the annual finger food bake off. Laurie and I signed up for Jess’s team for cake pops at church. None of us had made them before, but they turned out AWESOME!! We had two entries in the contest (regular sweets and gluten free) and we won a prize 
Never mind that all the prizes were a random draw- these were real winners, people.
What is a cake pop? You take a cake and crumble it, then you mix it with icing to make it sticky. Roll it into balls and freeze it so that when you dip it in chocolate it doesn’t break apart.
We made parchment paper cones to pipe on the melting wafers / ‘white’ chocolate and some got dipped into coconut. They were yummy!

They look amazing ladies. Wish I could have been there to taste them, but our trip home from my parents took a lot longer then expected. The roads were terrible. Maybe next time.
………………My first attempt at making cake balls turned out pretty yummy!…… It all started when my husband said his stepsister was craving cake balls on her Facebook profile. I consider myself somewhat informed when it comes to the world of baking so I had to figure out the mystery behind these so-called edible balls of cake.
