Cake Pops



Valentine's day is just around the corner.
So, I searched for Valentine's day ideas. Actually, I was excited to try a new recipe.
Chocolate covered strawberries, chocolate chip cookies, brownies and cake pops....
I wanted to share sweet treats with my friends, so I chose cake pops. It looks good and easy to wrap it individually.
I started to search for cake pop video clips and watched those with easy and simple recipes. 
Making cake pops is easy and simple. But I didn't make a smooth coating on the cake pops. The melted chocolate was stiff and it made an uneven surface and sometimes the stick came out of the cake ball. OMG!
I tried to make a natural wave pattern on the cake pop surface. It was the best result.

According to the video clips, a block of styrofoam makes a really good holder to stick the cake pops in while they are drying. But I didn't have it. So I used a steamer because there are a lot of holes. It's a good tip! - I think a colander is good, too.
