Cake on a Stick
WEB-EXCLUSIVE: A new way to eat cake, cake pops are popping up in Orange County.
|
There is something so alluring about eating food on a stick. Whether it's a corn dog or lollipop, the stick has a certain charm. And now there's a new addition to the world of stick treats: the cake pop.
As the name implies, cake pops are made of cake. Cakes of different flavors are rolled into balls then mixed with frosting. They're candy coated, decorated and placed on sticks. Best of all, the bite-sized pops are just enough to satisfy your sweet tooth without ruining your appetite, or waistline.
Blogger Bakerella's book about how to make cake pops popularized the mouthwatering dessert and now they’re everywhere.
Here are some local cake pop shops for your enjoyment:
