Cake pops.
One of the easiest treats to eat, but to me, one of the hardest to make.
Take a journey with me, as I try to make cake pops. A few months ago I tried to make cake pops but almost everything went wrong. I added too much frosting, I didn’t crumble the cake enough, I didn’t melt enough chocolate, and even the color was ugly. This time I wanted to make them right, after watching a few cake pop Tiktoks, It is time to redeem myself.

The first thing I did was gather my ingredients which were:
- melting chocolate
- food coloring
- sprinkles
- wooden sticks
- frosting
- Cake mix
- eggs
- oil
- water
The next step was to actually get baking. I bought a cake mix so all I had to do was add the mix, oil, water, and eggs, then mix and put it into the oven.
Next, I let the cake bake and cool. I then put a heaping spoonful of frosting into the cake and combined it so it became like a dough.
I melted white chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals, mixing in between each time and then adding pink food coloring.
Next, I rolled a small dough ball and poked the tip of a wooden stick into the melted chocolate. I poked the stick into the dough ball and dipped it into the chocolate. I poked a hole into an empty container so the cake pops could stand and dry. While they were standing and drying I added sprinkles to them, and then let the chocolate harden.
After all of the hard work, this is the final result:
