Precious Chicks

Remember Easter? That holiday that took place a few weeks ago? Well, I made these little friends that weekend...



Having discovered the incredible cake truffles on Bakerella, I definitely had to try them out for myself. Of course, my skills definitely need some fine-tuning. I can't believe how smooth her coating is! That woman is full of pure talent. You can check out her chicks and the recipe here to see what I was going for!

Meanwhile...let me introduce you to The Funky Bunch.


This is the pride and joy. You know, THAT guy...the golden child...always picked first...all the girls love him. You hate to love him.


This little chick has a tendency to be a little too intense. That guy that gets stressed out over everything. "Ohmygosh, is there SALT in this??? Don't you know sodium is bad for you?!" Oh my...


Maybe this little guy spent a little too much time with Mr. Intense and CRACKED under the pressure. Get it? Get it? I'll be here all night.


E spent a good amount of time peering over my shoulder asking questions so I decided to let him join in. Here's his special creation. We're so proud of him. :)



Cold season? I think he might need a tissue...

And finally...this is what happens when you've made about 40 cake truffles.


This was my first experience with cake truffles and I must say, they are amazingly delicious. Even though it can be a little difficult to make the cake pops look perfect, they are well worth the effort. Perfect for special occasions and gifts!

After experimenting several times with Bakerella's cake pops and cupcake bites, I find that the only way to get them looking as perfect as hers do (aside from practice) is to re-roll the balls after they've been frozen. Hope this helps!
