What's cuter than a cupcake? A cake pop, of course!

Wildly popular blogger Bakerella (aka Angie Dudley) has turned cake pops into an international sensation! Cute little cakes on a stick - from decorated balls to more ambitious shapes like baby chicks, ice cream cones and even cupcakes - these adorable creations are the perfect alternative to cake at any party or get-together. Angie makes it easy and fun to re-create there amazing treats in the home kitchen with clear step-by-step instructions and photos of more than 40 featured projects, as well as tips for presenting, decirating, dipping, colouring and melting candy coating and much more.

This is an entire cookbook devoted to making cake pops. The newest way to eat cake since the cupcake, these cute little treats are cake and frosting mixed together, dipped in chocolate or other candy coating, and then decorated to make little yellow chicks, reindeer, jack-o-lanterns, a box of popcorn, and the most famous so far - one that looks like a cupcake. The cupcake version got Bakerella onto the Martha Stewart Show, where she wowed Martha with how cute and easy they were to make. Cake Pops includes more than 40 projects from koala bears and cute puppies to ghosts and snowmen.

Basic recipes show how to make a classic cake pop and bakers can go to the projects to embellish them into fabulously cute treats. Cake pops can be made with boxed cake mix and store-bought frosting but recipes are included for those who want them from scratch. Plus an extensive section of resources includes lists and photos of the different decorations that can be used to make the pops and an array of Web sites to go to source them. Heaps of photos are included throughout - every cake pop has a photo giving readers a visual reference for every project.

Cake Pops is a US publication. All measurements are in imperial.
