Bunny Cakepops ~ Guest post by Pranjali

I have never held guest posts in my space but it will happen someday. I just donot have the time to put up a schedule, get in touch with friends and then publish them here. But a guest post event is always there in my mind. So when Pranjali of Foodydelight came forward to write a guestpost on cake pops, I happily accepted it. It is for another website which specializes in cakepops, only in cakepops. How cool is that. The site is filled with beautifully decorated cakepops and more are in the mbaking. So over to Pranjali.

I am glad to share a new recipe on this blog. Today’s recipe is about creating cake pops. It can be made in various shapes. The below recipe is for Bunny Cake pops. I would also like to introduce to the new cake pop site “How to make cake pops”. This site has various styles of cake pops and you will get all the detailed recipes. You can also find other interesting design of cake pops and other helpful information to create cake pops by visiting this beautiful cake pop site


INGREDIENTS
•Basic un-coated cake balls – 6
•Vanilla candy wafers
•Lollipop sticks
•Black edible gel pen to draw eyes
•Pink heart shaped sprinkle for nose
•Some pink sprinkles for feet
•Mini marshmallow for ears
•Pink gel pen

Making process

1. Freeze the basic cake balls until they are set.
2. Melt the candy wafer following the packet instructions.
3. When the cake balls are ready, push the stick into the chilled cake balls and dip them into melted candy and tap off any excess coating
4. When the pops are dry, apply a little melted candy in position for the nose and attach pink heart shaped sprinkle.
5. Use a pink gel pen to pipe coating on either sides of the nose. Also attach sprinkles as feet.
6. For the ears, use mini marshmallows. Firstly you need to shape the marshmallow in the shape of ears. Only you need to press the marshmallow with your finger and make them to look like bunny ears. Then attach ear- shaped marshmallow on the cake pop as the ears.
7. Bunny cake pops are ready

Marshmallow Chocolate Krispie Balls / truffles | Easy Gifting ideas

This is a very simple party snack which can be served to kids. They will love it as this combines two of their favorites - marshmallows and chocos (chocolate flavored Kellogs). Also it makes a great gifting idea for the season if you are intending to impress children. Make them more elegant by dipping the balls in some melted dark chocolate and kids will love it.

I had bought this bag of marshmallows just because I used to and now due to the strict condition from the huss of cutting down the intake of sugar was not able to finish the bag. 'A' is not a big fan of marshmallows and hence the bag was left untouched. Not wanting to waste it, came up with this idea and now he wants the whole lot for himself. ;P

~*What U Need*~
Marshmallows - 1 cup
Chocos - 1 packet(10 Rs)
I used Planet and stars
Butter - 1 tbsp
Vanilla essence - 1/2 tsp

How I Made it:
In a non-stick pan, melt butter. Add the marshmallows and keep stirring so that it does not stick to the pan and melts evenly. Remove from flame. Add the chocos to the melted marshmallows and mix well till evenly coated. Allow to cool down.
Grease your hands and pinch desired size of balls and roll. Cool and store in air tight containers.

Serve as party sweets for kids. Easy to make and every kid will love this.

** My Notes:
** You can even dip this is in colored sugar balls/chocolate vermicelli. Give an even coating to make it more colorful
** You can also dip them in melted dark chocolate.

So thats it Folks...
