In our final Mother’s Day idea for 2014, we are working on Flower Pot Cake Pops!! Yes, in the video introduction I accidentally say “cupcakes”, so don’t be confused! They’re cake pops!! All I can say is, “Oops.” Forgive me.
What I like about these cake pops is that they are bright and cheery, which is perfect for any spring time celebration, and definitely perfect for a wonderful Mom! You can make the pots any colour that you want, and for mine, I chose to use the new Peanut Butter melting wafers from Merckens. I had previously seen them at Bulk Barn (where I get many of my supplies) and thought that they would be a good colour for these flower pots. The wafers melted perfectly, and they also tasted great! Just like peanut butter chips.
I love being able to incorporate parts of previous projects in new ideas, such as using the mini royal icing daisies that I made a couple of weeks ago with cupcakes (link below in the ingredients), as a topper to these cake pops. I always seem to end up with extra flowers whenever I make them, which is a good thing in case of breakage, so when I was planning on what type of flowers to use for these cake pops, the daisies literally fell out of storage, saying “Pick us! Pick us!”
This is a pretty straight forward cake pop tutorial, but as always, if you have any questions, just let me know in the comments!
