Cake Pops

Although at first glance cake pops look dainty and innocent, if you attempt to make them, you will realize that they are not as they seem. Cake pops were an absolute hell to make. If the placement of the cake ball was not secured well enough on the stick (which it usually wasn't, as the cake would crumble around the glue-like icing), the entire cake pop would fall off. This usually occurred in the dipping process, as that was when the cake pops would undergo the most movement. Not only was it hell to fish out the cake from the icing, the liquidity of the icing would further crumble the cake, leaving a trail of brown sludge in the once pristine white icing. However, the few cake pops that we managed to successfully make did turn out quite well.
