A Baker I Am Not

I had tossed the idea of making cake pops for my daughter’s school around and around and around…Just couldn’t bring myself to do it.  Those things are a TON of work!  But seeing how this is her first Valentine’s Day in “real” school, I wanted to do something…especially since the crazy food rules being adopted in so many schools have not impacted us yet!  So, instead of cake pops, I made marshmallow pops!  52 marshmallow pops…one for each student in the school [and NO, that’s not just in her class!].

IMG_0140Dipping one in the pink chocolate…it’s a slow process.  You have to let the excess chocolate drip off, all the while keeping things smooth.  Then you have to let them set up a bit before decorating.

IMG_0154View of all the completed pops!  So pretty and LOVEly!

IMG_0160And individually packed!

I sure hope she loves them!  And I sure hope she remembers all these crazy things I do for her! Smile

  1. Lindsay you are one awesome mommy! Those are really cute. I wanted to make something for my kids for school but we fall under those crazy guidelines so I have to buy something instead. :(
