These mini milkshakes are ADORABLE! Thanks to my guest host Paityn for helping me put these together. They’re super easy to do with kids and would make for a fun birthday party assembly activity.
I can’t make a milkshake video without referring to “my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard.” I just had to get that out of the way immediately. Now, I can move onto important information. Like, the wonderful colourful cake crumbs you’re going to need mixed together with buttercream and jammed inside of an empty ice cream cone!
Paityn is my 13 year old special guest host that I have had join me on my channel over the last couple of years. In this tutorial, I had her help me cleaning out the inside of the ice cream cones, layering the rainbow cake pop filling and playing with chocolate and sprinkles! What kid wouldn’t want to be involved in that?
I’m not a huge fan of working on cake pops, but these ones were super fun because they were easy, and not round! I hate making the round ones. I love making cake pops into mini copies of the real thing, and in this case, a mini milkshake! You could put whatever kind of cake pop filling inside of these- they don’t have to be rainbow. I have an obsession with rainbow though, so I had to make the insides bright and colourful.
