Christmas is coming!

I was so excited to try Christmas cake pops. There are so many cute options. Like . . .




Santa Hats or . . .









Christmas Trees or . . .








Rudolph & his friends or . . .



my personal favorite, Snowmen.


I'm so excited to give these to my boys' teachers as Christmas gifts. I'm usually one of those standard Starbucks card moms. This year everyone gets a unique, fun & very yummy gift!

Gobble! Gobble!



These are one of the first "specialty" cake pops I tried. Aren't they cute? And yummy too! Just in time for Turkey Day.

My new adventure


My love of cake balls started at my sister-in-law's bridal shower. Her best friend made these incredible little balls of pure goodness. I had to have the recipe. It took me several months to actually attempt making them on my own, and to my total surprise, they tasted just as yummy as I remembered!


Several months after that, I discovered cake pops - delicious cake balls on a stick made into cute little characters. I started experimenting and found that I really enjoyed making them. It took up so much of my time that my husband joked that I should start a business. I laughed at the time but then friends started saying that they would actually like to buy them from me. So . . . here is that's sweet treats, my very first business!
ps. My sister-in-law, Tori, at whose shower I first found cake balls, is my photographer. Isn't she talented? She makes my cake balls look good enough to eat! :)
