Fun with cake pops

As part of my research for the kids' birthday cake options, i thought about making cake pops. Because the normal way of making cake pops(mushing the cake and putting it back into a ball with icing) sounds like eating chewed up cake, i was more interested in the cake pop machine, which i got for a bargain price of $8.99!!!

When the cake pop maker arrived in the mail, the kids were very excited. They were quite excited about the batter and filling up part but waiting 4 mins for the cake pop to cook proved too long a wait!

Anyways, my first batch didn't quite make the perfect sphere that i was looking for. 2nd batch was a little better. I think more experimentation is needed!!

Oh, yeah, the kids lost interest before i got to decorating. So, maybe an activity to be continued tomorrow!
