I have been intrigued by them for some time and I have wanted to try them out. They just sounded so gross. Mashed up cake, mixed with icing, dunked into a candy coating, then rolled in sprinkles? Talk about sugar overload! Recently a friend asked me to come over and help make some cake ball pops for her niece's first birthday, so naturally I jumped at the chance.
It took us three hours to make 50 cake ball pops, not including baking the cake! These little suckers were very labor intensive, a two woman job minimum. And they tasted just as overly sweet as I had expected! The cake itself had a weird, "already been chewed" texture to it as well.
While they did end up looking cute, in my opinion they weren't worth the effort. Mini-cupcakes are just as cute and taste way better!
So yummy, we have to try these for ourselves someday but they sure seem like a lot of hard work! :)
