This past weekend I decided to put myself in charge of dessert for a friend’s barbecue and I wanted something that looked and tasted special. I went with mini red velvet cake pops, since everything’s cuter in miniature sizes. These cake pops were one of the better things I’ve ever baked and I think they were quite a hit with the kids

{crumble the cake completely. mix with cream cheese frosting. form mixture into cake balls. and refrigerate for 2-3 hours}

{candy melts}

{dip 1/2 inch paper lollipop stick in candy melt}

{insert dipped stick into cake balls}

{Marble cake pop effects: Dip cake ball in a solid color candy melt. drizzle a different color candy melt to the base coating. The liquid candy will marble as it makes it way down. Set on styrofoam and cool}
