How To Make Christmas Pudding Cake Pops

I can’t possibly wait until December 25th for my Christmas pud and with these bitesize Christmas pudding cake pops you don’t have to.

We all love Christmas pudding in our house and I thought it would be fun to make Christmas pudding christmas cake pops.

Made with fruit cake and dipped in Green & Black’s Maya Gold chocolate, they’re a bite size treat you can share with your friends throughout December.

Meanwhile melt a bar of dark chocolate in the microwave in a mug. Today I used Green & Black’s Maya Gold which has a perfect spiciness to go with Christmas pudding flavours.

Grab some sticks. I like fat wooden ones like you used to get ice lollies on rather than airy fairy coffee stirrers pilfered from coffee shops.

Take some white sugar paste. Today I’m using this new Silver Spoon Designed by Mich Turner white icing which is flavoured with

And for the for the holly leaves and berries I am using Renshaw green and red icings which are super for modelling without the faff of having to add your own food colour to plain sugarpaste.

Take a curvy flowery blossom cutter around 2 inches across; roll out a golf ball sized ball at once. These dinky non stick rollers and a non stick mat help stop your sugarpaste sticking to the table without needing to add extra icing sugar.

I dabbed some royal icing on the other side. You could use squeezy tube writing icing if you didn’t want to make this although I find home made icing much easier to pipe out.

Then we make holly leaves. This holly leaf cutter was a bit big for what I needed so I turned the cutter round the other way to make smaller holly leaves.

Use a spear modelling tool to engrave a spine down the centre; or you could gently score a line with a small knife so long as you take care not to tear the leaf.

Dot them on the top of the cake pops then pipe more blobs of green icing to affix the red berries on top.

Much persuading) about fifty squillion food bloggers to come the length and breadth of the country to get together at the Wombles’ favourite department store; Fortnum & Mason in Piccadilly.

The most popular one would be a good old trifle, where the cake will soak up all the goodness from the custard, jelly and whatever brandy you use. I love a good trifle, especially during the festive season, they are definitely a crowd pleaser.

Another way of using up leftover cake is making cake pops. Not only they are super easy to make with super simple ingredients, but they also look impressive. You can make cake pops for absolutely any occasion, from children's parties, Valentine's Day, Easter, Christmas, and anything else you can think of.

For my cake pops I used leftover madeira cake, but any other sponge cake would do: Lemon Drizzle Cake, Victoria Sandwich Cake , Coffee and Walnut Cake, just to give you ca few examples.

The cake does not need to be simple, if it's got filling or icing, that's fine, they will act like binding agents to keep the balls together. Otherwise, if you have a plain cake, you can use condensed milk, like I did for my pops, cream cheese or any icing of your choice.

To make the cake pops have that distinctive Christmas pudding look, I used milk and white chocolate, plus sprinkles for the top.

I absolutely loved these Christmas Cake Pops, they were so delicious, and they kept fresh for many days before they were finally demolished - even if the cake was already 3-4 days old, the pops lasted well for 4-5 days after as well, just keep them refrigerated, and they will be fine.
