How To Make A Molded Cake Pop
Stir in your jar (or homemade) frosting, a little at a time. Once it reaches a nice consistency that will cling together when you roll it in a ball, you're there.
I don't have one of those little melon-baller gadgets, but I might get one for the next round - my hands seems incapable of rolling a sphere - they all come out like footballs. It took some work to make the beautiful spheres you see here.
Get your lollipop sticks ready, and dip them slightly in the melted candy before inserting them half-to-three-quarters way in to each cake ball.
Funfetti Deadpool Cake Pops
This is where I would say Stick it in the fridge! but when I did so at this step, I think it worked against me. So don't. Or, try it without sticking them in the fridge at this point, and if it turns out to be a hot mess, then, well. . .. stick 'em in the fridge.
I don't have any pictures of my decorating process, but I just used what I had in terms of glitter and confetti and such. The ducks' noses and wings were more melted candy coating, and the feet were little orange stars that came in the confetti mixture. The eyes were dotted on with the tube decorator icing.
Bring them into work or to the next party you have. Share them with your friends! Bet someone a dollar they can't eat a whole one in one bite!

Truth be told, I’m not a comic book geek. I never owned stacks of those comic books or impressive collections of their memorabilia. I didn’t even know comics were collectibles until I was older (the only ones available to me at the time were Archie comics). Having grown up in Sri Lanka for part of my childhood, I unfortunately didn’t have access to these comics or even the knowledge of it. I was a huge TMNT nerd though (official member of the TMNT fan club thankyouverymuch. I owned TMNT lunch boxes, water bottles, stationery, T-shirts, and bed spreads even!).
The only ones I knew of were the very mainstream ones which were on tv like Batman and Robin (thanks to countless reruns of Adam West’s show from the 60s, which I absolutely loved at the time, and still chuckle over every time I see it on one of those obscure tv channels on weekends), and Superman (I may or may not have had more than a little obsession for Christopher Reeves), Xmen and The Incredible Hulk (the one with Lou Ferrigno from the late 70s).

And I even desperately wanted a vintage superhero themed wedding, featuring a wedding cake with the Hulk (my husband’s favourite character) smashing one side of the cake! I wanted superhero PEZ dispensers as party favours for our guests, and even our photos to have a distinct superhero theme! 🙂 Sadly, I couldn’t do any of this, BUT, Mr K and I definitely plan on re-doing it again one day, with all of this plus more! 🙂 A blowout wedding party with all the superheroes, antiheroes and supervillains that we can cram into one gathering! How fun would that be?
I even made this Avengers Cake (with an ombre crusting cream cheese frosting) for my husband’s birthday a couple of years ago! Click on the picture to check it out!
I love all things Marvel and DC. I don’t discriminate, really don’t have a reason to. I mean I didn’t even know the difference until I met Mr K. But of all the superheroes and antiheroes out there, I think Deadpool might quite legitimately be my absolute favourite!

, wants to have that power, to save the world and savour that feeling. And I’m the same. But honestly, what I love and admire even more, are decent people who live their life doing what makes them happy, not giving a shit about the judgmental ones around them, living their life with their own characteristic flair. And
Having read his comics recently, I love how he’s portrayed as the antihero that just doesn’t care, but also kind of does (if that makes sense?). I was so disappointed when Deadpool made an appearance in

And it just wasn’t the same guy from the comic books. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some Ryan Reynolds, but it just wasn’t the Deadpool that I wanted to see on the big screen. And then years later, I saw the “leaked footage” from the test screening for the new Deadpool movie and there was a faint glimmer of hope! With every tv spot and trailer, I got more excited knowing that they were going to do justice by the character from the comic books. And now it’s finally here baby! Just 3 more days. Can you guess what I’ll be doing this Friday? 🙂
And as a celebration, I’ve got Funfetti Deadpool Cake Pops for you guys today! 🙂 These deadpool cake pops are easy to make. I have gone geeky on this blog with cake pops before – check out these Homer Simpson cake pops from a while back. You can use ANY KIND of cake you like (homemade or store-bought) to make these. I’m using vanilla cake with Funfetti frosting, to celebrate the colourful badass that Deadpool truly is!
So grab some Chimichangas, and maybe sneak in some cake pops (I said maybe), and go watch Deadpool this weekend, if you’re a fan too! 🙂
Starbucks Sells Fox Shaped Cake Pops This Fall
No matter what the recipe says, you should always add frosting a little at a time, mixing it well until the cake crumbs start to bind together. If the cake pops are too stodgy, they’ll be too soft and too sweet, and if there’s too little frosting, the cake pops will crumble on the stick.
CRUSH the cake. It needs to be crushed. If you don’t crush it fully the cake won’t bind. However, cake pop “dough” is more forgiving with some extra frosting, and you can add mini chocolate chips and funfetti (like I have).
Keep the cake pops in the freezer till they become FIRM (not frozen), BEFORE sticking them on the popsicle stick. Personally, this is the method that works best for me.
Marvel's Avengers Cake Pops
Dip each stick in the melted chocolate and then insert the cake pop. Since the cake pop is cold, it should help the chocolate harden up and grip the popsicle stick firmly. Do this for all the cake pops first, allowing time for the cake pop to adhere properly to the popsicle stick. PLUS this allows the cake pop to get closer to room temperature again before dip it in the melted chocolate.
Use paramount crystals, cocoa butter or vegetable oil to thin out the melted chocolate if it’s too thick. Thick and lumpy chocolate is your enemy. You want it to be thick
You don’t want to dip frozen, or very cold cake pops in the chocolate. Likewise, you don’t want to dip the cake pops in very hot melted chocolate. The cake pop and melted chocolate should be closer in temperature to prevent cracking as the chocolate hardens. (FYI – cracks happen as the cake pop warms and expands, OR as the warm chocolate shrinks as it cools down).
Cake Pop Insanity!: South Park Cake Pops
When you dip the cake pops IN the chocolate, fully submerge it in the chocolate. Don’t “twirl” the cake pop in the chocolate – just move it around slightly to get an even coating. IF the cake pop doesn’t fully submerge, use a spoon or other utensil to pour the chocolate over the cake pop.
DO NOT shake the cake pop to get rid of excess chocolate. Tap the wrist or hand that you are holding the cake pop with, which helps shake off excess chocolate gently.
So with those tips in mind –
