Introducing Cakey Perry and Lady Goo Goo by Top of the Cake Pops

Rihanna and "Cakey" Perry, yum!

As I mentioned on my previous post, cake pops are getting very popular.  They are one fun to eat dessert (isn't everything on the stick taste better?!).  I found these cute pop stars, including Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, and Justin Biber...in cake pop format.  Urgh, they are too cute to eat!  If you want to learn how to make your favorite pop stars, this book, Top of the Cake pops could definitely give you some amazing ideas (see cover of the book below).  And check out more pop stars by Top of the Cake Pops below also.

Cake pops for my love

Mr. G is not a big fans of sweet (so as many other guys), but he would ask me to make him something sweet specifically now and then (from cream puff to cupcakes to you got it, cake pops this time).  Recently, he is addicted to the cake pops from Starbucks (see the pink one above).    He knew that I made these cute little treats before, so he put in his request and asked me to make the birthday cake pops similar to the one from Starbucks for him.

Last night, I made him some beautiful cakepops (white cake with buttercream frosting inside).  When I was making these little cute things, I recalled how messy it was the last time I made them.  This time, I got it, I got it RIGHT!  They look and taste much better than the last time.  Practice makes perfect=D

They turned out just as delicious as the ones we got from Starbucks (to enhance their sweetness, try to pair up with a cup of hot coffee, a glass of fresh milk or a cup of hot tea)=) 

Just a side note, I think Starbucks really step up their game with adding some trendy petite fun items on their pastry menu - cake pops, mini whoopie pies and OF COURSE mini cupcakes.  I tried few of them, and they were surprisingly good; however, they were a little overpriced in my opinion (If I remember correctly, a cake pop is around $2.50USD).

The Bigger The Better!

In America, people has this theory "The Bigger The Better".  I found the largest gummy worm and gummy bear in the world on Vat 19 website.  Hey, Christmas is around the corner, these may make your kids the best Christmas gift they ever received!

The World's Largest Gummy Worm is 128 times more massive than a traditional gummy worm. Measuring twenty-six inches long and weighing in at approximately 3 pounds, the World's Largest Gummy Worm is the most delicious 4,000-calorie candy worm in existence.

The Giant Gummy Bear on a stick is 88 times larger than a standard gummy bear. Each Giant Gummy Bear weighs half a pound and comes on a stick for easy, mess-free snacking.

This five-pound beast is the equivalent of 1,400 regular sized gummy bears and

packs a whopping 6,120 calories.
