I’ve made cutesy farm animal cake pops before, but this time, a horse has joined the cast. I deliberated about what horse to make, and decided finally on a horse with a white stripe along the face, because I thought it looked ‘farmy’. This is utilising a wet-on-wet technique, so every horse cake pop is […]
“What can you make that is Lego-themed?” a client asked. Well, I’ve made Lego heads cake pops, I said. And Lego lollies. She went for those and she also asked for Lego head iced biscuits and Lego block iced biscuits. When she received the package, she called me a ‘genius’. Woo hoo! *ahem* *beams with […]

I love the simplicity of a one colour iced biscuit. There is no waiting in between for the royal icing to dry. These ones were part of an undersea theme, with coral, turquoise and white as the theme colours. I also made octopus cake pops with the same turquoise.
When making the face for this Elsa cake, I thought it was quite like making a cake pop. Only I didn’t make it 20 or 30 or 50 times, just this once. Some Dolly Varden cakes use a doll inside, but I don’t quite like mixing inedible stuff with edible stuff. So yes, she is […]
