This video was quite the challenge! Surprisingly I feel like it was harder than turning a $20 grocery store cake into a $500 wedding cake! That was easy in comparison! In today's video I took cheap grocery store bought cupcakes with vanilla icing and vanilla cake topped with confetti sprinkles and deconstructed them. With the addition of melted tempered white chocolate candy melts I made cakesicles and cake truffles. I also added some gold leaf and edible gold dust to create extra fancy easy simple designs! They turned out SO cute!

Thank you for your honesty. I also don’t understand why it seems to be “ trendy” these days to lie to people. Your candidness in this video was like a breath of fresh air. The struggle was real. But the finished product at the end was so much more rewarding because of it. Also, I agree, cakesicles are probably just not your thing. The chocolate hearts turned out amazing.

Taking the sprinkles off one by one omllll girllll you deserve all these truffles...and a drink AHAHA👏❤️❤️I could never

[@savannahcronin8551]

I think I’ve almost perfected cake pops, I would recommend leaving your cakesicles in the freezer until you have your chocolate ready for dipping, then dip right away and put back into freezer to set

[@Clarky1951]

If you adhere the popsicle sticks with chocolate/ganache and let it set, then you can dip and the popsicle stick will stay put. And your chocolate should be relatively thin. Yours is too thick. Better to dip 2-3 times than once in thick chocolate. Just end up with goopy mess. And let chocolate drip off over parchment paper. Then you can scrape off and reuse. 🥰

[@Clarky1951]

Further to my previous post. I wanted to mention how disappointed that I never got to meet you at Canada’s Baking and Sweets show. Would have been such a treat. I won tickets on your fb page. Unfortunately I could only attend Saturday. You were demonstrating Sunday. 🥰🥰

[@azwins.a14]

Hi! How do you thin out the chocolate?

[@Clarky1951]

@@azwins.a14 with shortening. Add a tablespoon while your chocolate is warm. Stir in well. If chocolate is still too thick, keep adding a teaspoon and stirring until you reach the right consistency.

[@lindafraser2044]

Or you can just put the chocolate in first like the hearts. Makes them look better and the chocolate has a better shine.

[@haileemalins6717]

I also believe a factor is the shape of the popsicle stick could be a factor. A lot of the videos I've seen use a hourglass shaped stick, which I would imagine helps prevent the stick from sliding out
