I spent a great weekend with Jess in High Wycombe at the beginning of the month, mainly baking which was fun. We made some cake pops a la Bakerella.
Here is in pictorial form:
This is Jess' awesome cake tin of joy!
... and her catering sized roll of greasproof paper...
..which she used to expertly line the tin of joy...
..as you can see we were in a kitchen with all mod cons, including...
...the Bakerella blog on Jess' laptop.
These are Jess' very cool scales that let you switch between units of measurement, and reset them to zero to add the next lot of igredients. I call them her drug dealer scales as you can measure really small amounts of mass.
Pint glasses are the best recepticle for beating eggs.
Mmm...buttery sugar!
Lots and lots of cocoa!
Beat that cake mix!
Whilst the cake was in the oven, we made cream cheese icing to bind it all together:
Then we set to work crumbling cake!
After we mixed in the icing, we made the cake balls...
..stuck lolly pop sticks in them...
and kept dipping and dipping...
These one are dipped in white chocolate...
We then made the chocolate yellow to make some little chick cake pops.
Decorating them was my favoutite bit. I think they came out really well...
Now Austin's birthday cake should have cooled so I can ice it...
