This is the site I found, there is a video and it explains the whole process. Not sure I fancy those candymelts without seeing whats in them. They are not real chocolate.

esmer, what did they mix the crumbled cake with? cream cheese frosting?! The same cream cheese frosting that you would use with a carrot cake??

Ooooh Esmer, it's fab to find another Bakerella fan ~ how cool is she?!? :cool:

I'm completely obsessed with cake pops, not quite up to her standard yet (or ever!!) but "here are some I made earlier"

Wow they are fab!
Where do you buy the sticks please?
Are they expensive?
Thanks.

Esmer I just mix cake with buttercream, it needs to be quite stiff though so the balls don't fall apart when you dip them!

There's a really good video on You Tube of the dipping process, give me a little while and I'll try and find it...

What are your quanties of Cake and Buttericing?

I got these ones from ebay, I think they're a bit too big though. I think maybe the 4.5" would be better.

Also I got the small cellophane bags (from the same seller) and they were far too small, would need either the medium or large.

Love your cupcakes Esmer xx

Thanks Hayley, trying out lakelands cases, not sure I like them.....
