Halloween Cake Pops!

We are no stranger to Cake Pops in our house...

It's a fun activity for us, for treat making...

All you need to do is bake up a little cake...

Crumble it into pieces...

Add a little frosting to the mix...

And start rolling!

It helps when you have rolling help...and I get mine by way of these two hooligans.

Of course, ever since I made cake pops with Jess, I can't stop thinking about her Heavenly Cake Pop Roller, and how I must get myself one of those!!

For now, child labor will have to do!

We melt up a little Candy Melt...

And Voila!

Little Monsters!

Literally!

HA HA!

Cake Pops don't ALWAYS have to go on a stick...

Sometimes they are just as cute in a dish on the Party Table too!

See?

But if you do want to display your cake pops on sticks, and you don't roll your cake balls as large as we do, then check out my DIY Cake Pop Stand post!

Pretty simple and can add quite the POP to your table!

DIY Cake Pop Stand

A long long time ago, like, no joke...

about a year ago...

I set out on a project...

You see, I'd had been trying to figure out how to neatly display my cake pops, on the rare occasions I had enough time, patience, and energy to make them.

Or, I made them and they didn't have to sit on a plate, like these beauties did!

So, after finding 'cake pop stands' ~ and thinking that was exactly what I needed...

I decided to set out and see if I could do them on my own.

I visited a local Home Goods Store, and picked up a couple of deals.

My husband wasn't home, so he didn't mind me borrowing the power tools, 

(because he didn't KNOW! HA HA!) and away I went!

We won't talk about the not so teeny tiny little drill hole that might or might not have found it's way onto the table top beneath the cutting board.

OOPS!

The kids were happy to help ~

And finally, thanks to a fun little workshop with the amazing Jess at 

Everyday O'Cake'sions - 

(more on THAT fun day soon!)

I finally, after months and months and months, 

had some fun cake pops, that actually fit in my stand, that didn't roll/slide/plop off the sticks!

See how cute this guy is tucked into his new home?

And see just how cute a very unorganized army can look on your own DIY Cake Pop Stand?

I can't wait to put these stands, and all of my new found cake pop knowledge, to good use!
I'm thinking I might put a nice fresh coat of paint on these cake pop stands, but time will tell.

For now, I sort of like them how they are!
