C is for.....

Cupcake Pops!
Bakerella I am NOT. Unfortunately.
But I still decided to give these boogers a try. Might I say Bakerella is now my hero! At least for today. Tomorrow is Madison's birthday so I made these to take to school. I thought I wanted to be unique. Now I wish I'd just made regular cupcakes. That was a LOT of work!!

We started off really well. I baked a cake and it turned out right. I know I know, how hard is it to screw up a boxed cake mix. You haven't see me bake.

So from there I was happy. Then I got my balls all ready to chill. Yes April, I have balls! LOL


So far so good....so then I dip the bottoms in chocolate. And at this point I am still happy with my progress....but I am soooo over making these things.


Well from there it went downhill. The vanilla almond bark didn't melt like the chocolate did. So I had to spread it on. Which was hard. So then they got all messy. And the styrofoam I bought to transport them to school wasn't large enough. Have I mentioned I was over making these? So I had to really cram them in.

But I am pleased to announce that Madison LOVES them. I haven't tried one yet in protest. And so far they all stayed on the sticks, which I didn't have enough of!

So while I am sure tonight I won't attempt another project like this....I know I will change my mind the next time the Britches say Ooooh you've got to try this.

So wanna see the finished product?? Please ignore the condiments on my counter and the lone taco shell on my stove lol
