Cake Pops

I said that I was going to be making Cake Pops for Valentines day... but I didn't realise how much of a bleeding mission they were going to be. Ohh my goodness they are definitely a full-day job. Luckily I made the two cakes the evening prior to actually making the pop-part.

I used Betty Crocker cakes because I couldn't be bothered making one from scratch. Then I let them cool over night.

After my run yesterday morning, I went round to a friends and we crumbed up the cakes and mixed in the icing and then made them into balls. Then we melted the chocolate and tried to cover them in it. That's where it got crazy messy hahaha they would dip while I decorated and it was difficult because the chocolate hardened crazy quick... but we got there in the end! I made a few more this morning to use up the rest of the balls and chocolate. It was lots of fun decorating them :) But George had better bloody love them because they were freaking hard! lol

I've eaten too much chocolate and cake now haha I'd better go for a run tomorrow and get back into my routine, ready for my next triathlon in March!
