Graduation Party

I was asked to help set up for a graduation party last weekend and it was a lot of fun!  The dessert table was done in the school colors, blue and orange.  The host requested 50 white cake pops with blue and orange sprinkles, I think it looked great. I  love dessert tables based on a color scheme.  I wish I took more pictures of the full dessert table with the balloons, cupcakes, and cookies, but I had to rush to another graduation party and didn't get a chance to capture the finished image.  BUMMER!



My friend's boyfriend graduated from graduate school the same weekend and I wanted to make him graduation cake pops.  I was pooped after making 50 cake pops, but I was able to pull these together in a few minutes and I'm satisfied with the results. 



Congratulations to the class of 2011!

My sister's baby shower

My first event that involved cake popping was my sister's baby shower.  I really enjoyed planning her baby blue and yellow duck baby shower.  I made a total 150 cake pops! Most were used as favors and some were for the dessert table.  With lemon cake, strawberry cake and oreos, I made four kinds of cake pops.  I made baby blue (lemon) and pink (strawberry) cake pops with white sprinkles and a cupcake cake pop (Oreos) with baby blue M&Ms.  I also made some duck cake pops using lemon cake. 







I'm inspired by Amy Atlas, so for my first event, with a modest budget I wanted to create a cute and simple dessert table with cake pops, orange creamsicle cupcakes and some brownies.  Thanks to my friends S & L, the diaper cakes were a great addition to the table! I also created the simple banner to go with the babyshower theme colors.  

Hello!

Hello!

My name is Jen and I'm excited to showcase my cake pops on this blog!  It has been a long time since I've blogged (xanga days in college) so it'll take a little getting used to :)
