Create adorable daffodil cake pops to bring the beauty of flowers to your cake decorating. These delightful treats are perfect for spring parties or any occasion.
Ingredients: 1 box of your favorite cake mix. 1/2 cup of frosting. Yellow candy melts. White candy melts. Green candy melts. Cake pop sticks. Yellow and green food coloring. Edible gold glitter optional.
Instructions: Follow the directions on the box to bake the cake. Allow it to totally cool down. In a large bowl, break up the cooled cake into small pieces. Mix the cake crumbs with 1/2 cup of frosting until everything is well mixed. Make small flower shapes out of the cake batter. Small pieces can be rolled between your palms to make the petals. In 30 second increments, melt the yellow candy melts in the microwave. Stir between each interval until the mixture is smooth. Melt some yellow candy and dip the end of a cake pop stick into it. Then, put the stick about halfway into a cake pop. Do this again with all of the cake pops. Make sure that the yellow candy covers the whole cake pop when you dip it in it. Tap gently to get rid of any extra. To let them set, put the cake pops on a stand or a piece of foam. In a small bowl, melt some white candy melts. Attach a small round shape to the cake pop and use it to make the center of the daffodil. For the stems and leaves, melt the green candy melts and add a little green food coloring. To make the stem, dip the bottom of each cake pop into the green candy. To make leaves next to the stem, dip a toothpick in green candy melts. For an extra touch of class, you can sprinkle edible gold glitter on the petals if you want to. Let the candy coating harden all the way before you serve it or package it. Now it's time to eat your daffodil cake pops!
