Birthday Treat

At Annabelle's school the Birthday Kid brings in a treat, but they treat goes home.  They kids do not eat it at school.  I was trying to think of something that would transport easily and be fun. 
I got the idea to do the cakepops from pinterest.  I used the recipe from bakerella.com
They were time consuming, but over all pretty easy.
I would make them again because I loved how they turned out.  I am thinking that with a few more tries I would perfect the technique.

First I made a regular box cake.

Then my little helpers helped me break it up into crumbs.

Then we stirred in the frosting.

It was messy so we washed our hands quite
a few times during the process.

This little sweetie baby just hung out and watched us.

My little princess is ready to dip the cake pops.

We dipped them in melted candy to get that "smooth" look.
I guess it is smoother than trying to frost them.
I used a box to put the cakepops in to harden.

Annabelle put sprinkles on them and I wrapped
them in a little bag.

Annabelle brought them to school in a little basket.

We made enough for her to bring to playgroup next week when they celebrate her birthday.
