This morning was an early wake up. I had to drop Justin off at work. The best cure for an early wake up… Coffee and Chai Tea Lattes! We headed to Starbucks and as we were waiting in line I spied this sign:
I had recently heard the buzz of this via twitter and my mom. Obviously, I had to do some investigating!( I love cake pops and try to make them at least once a month for family and friends.) I ordered one that was coated in pink with white sprinkles. As we sat down to enjoy our warm drinks… I peered into the bag and the appearance of the cake pop was the start of disappointment.
Justin reminded me that these are probably mass produced but still…I think that Leo(my cocker spaniel) could do a better job dipping the cake pops into the candy coating. Now about the taste… Candy coating had no flavor and
the cake was definitely to sweet. Thanks to Justin for showing how unhappy we are with Starbucks Cake Pops.
Moral of the story: buy Bakerella’s book and make your own cake pop!

start making and selling…..you could do GREAT!!!!!
Or, instead of buying the book, ask your favorite baker, Erica, to make you some cake pops that she made! yum! (hint, hint)
Thanks for the review! My husband tried it and didn’t like it either, but I didn’t believe him because he doesn’t like sweets that much! I agree that homemade ones are always more special.
I ToTaLLY AGREE! too sweet for my taste,and it wasn’t as fresh.
