Ever get a call where someone wants 2 dozen cake pops for an event and needs them the same or next day?!! If you are busy baker …or parent, and need a design idea on the go, these button molds will do the trick!! You can can make them fun or fancy just by changing the colors you use!
Here are some fun cake pops:)!! All I did was pour in some candy melts into the button molds, used a toothpick to give them a quick swirl to get into all the crevices and look how they came out!
These button molds are from Marvelous Molds! Great, right?!
Once you have all your buttons made, it is time to roll the cake dough into balls to be dipped! We use the Easy Roller of course!! You can do this part by hand but it’s so much fun to see 21 balls all at once, right:)?! (…or check out our new Mini Easy Roller!)
Dipping IS easier if your cake balls are cold, so put them in the fridge for 15-30 minutes. Too much longer then that and you may have “other” issues:/ Like the chocolate coating setting too quickly or cracked pops! While those are chilling, you have a tough decision to make about what color to dip your pops in;)! I started with white and added a bit of orange candy color!
I put a few sprinkles on the outside as it was still wet… Totally optional, but I thought they looked cute!
Then just place your already made candy button on top and set them in your favorite cake pop stand to dry:)!
I added a few dots of color around the outside of the button, but that’s it! So fast and easy!!
If you want a more sophisticated look it’s almost simpler! You can make all the button molds in milk chocolate, and then dip your pops in milk chocolate as well. Once that chocolate has set, all I did was dry dust the pops and some of the buttons in gold pearl dust and piped simple milk chocolate dots around the buttons to give it a little contrast! Check it out!
And…….
