Turkey Cake Pops and Acorns

For Thanksgiving I made these turkey cake pops. I used candy corn for the tail feathers, tan candy melts, a heart sprinkle and some orange candy melts for his face.


Just had to make these acorns when a friend showed them to me. So easy too!  Get some Hershey Kisses, mini chocolate chips, and bite size Nutter Butters or Nilla Wafers (I made some of each).  "Glue" the mini chocolate chip onto the cookie and the cookie onto the Hershey's Kiss with some melted chocolate. I used dark chocolate candy melts. Yum!

Minnie Mouse Cake

For Katie's 2nd birthday I made a Minnie Mouse themed cake. The hat is half a ball cake, covered in Wilton Black candy melts. I wanted it to match the ear color.  I used a large circle mold to make the ears.


The cake pops are also dipped in black candy melts. I used a small circle mold to make the ears, but you could just use a candy melt if you wanted.  The bow was made in a candy mold as well.


The cupcakes used the same ears and bow as the pop.  With some frosting polka dots on top.


So cute!

Pink Cupcakes

I made these for an Asian themed birthday party.  It was hard to come up with something, but I think these did the job.  I use a big tip 1M for the main frosting. Two swirls, one big around the outside edge of the cupcake and one smaller on top of the first closing into the center of the cupcake. Some pink pearl sprinkles for the flower centers and edible pink glitter for a little sparkle.
