Pumpkin Cake Pops


I don't know about you, but I love cake pops. And I love that they are easy to dress up for any occasion or Holiday.

I follow Bakerella's cake pop recipe. The simplified instructions are:

Make a cake (I prefer Betty Crocker's Yellow Cake Mix), grate it, mix it with 3/4 tub of frosting (vanilla works well with the yellow cake). Roll your mixture into balls. Refrigerate. Then let the decorating fun begin.

I love doing pumpkins because I think they are the easiest for Halloween yet they are so colorful and fun. Melt down your orange candy melts, dip your cake balls, and add a cute little pumpkin stem and you're done. If you want to take them to the next level, you can add Jack-O-Lantern faces. I love them plain though. I like the simple look. However if I were to do a whole Halloween bouquet with mummy's and cats, etc., I would probably add faces.

Technically you could make these into Pumpkin pumpkin cake pops by using pumpkin cake and some cream cheese frosting. But I still love the yellow.
