Cake Pop Graveyard



 So I've decided that I hate cake pops. The idea was so novel to me at first... of course, bite size cake balls on sticks. Who doesn't love food on sticks? I went online, looked extensively through Bakerella's website (which fyi makes it all look so easy and cute... that bitch), and watched step by step videos on how to make them. Then came the day to finally test my extensive cake pop knowledge. So I went to the store, spent way too much money, and with the assistance of my wonderful boyfriend (who sadly is a way better baker than I'll ever be) we began a two day journey into cake-pop-ery. And well....

I failed, three times to be exact. It's not nearly as easy as it looks. Actually, it feels damn near impossible. The balls don't roll the way they should, they don't stay on the stick, and when you dip them in the chocolate they either fall apart or look incredibly ugly. I think after three batches of cake pops I may have to hang up my cake pop-in hat and stick to something I don't completely suck at...
