Birthday Cake Pops

I am so late getting these posted!  I haven't been very good about keeping up with the blog lately, I have been busy baking, filling orders, and working on a secret project!

This was four dozen cake pops with a customized stand for a very special lady's 40th Birthday!  It was a great party and  a good time was had by all!  Happy Birthday (belated still counts, right??)!

Poker Party Dessert Table

I'm just getting around to posting photos from this amazing dessert table that I did for an amazing person's 90th birthday.  It really turned out great and everyone seemed to enjoy the goodies!

  I had a few major design elements to work on for this one, I redesigned the way I am doing my backgrounds, which should make them a little easier to move around from now on.  They are 8 feet long and can get really heavy!  I also designed the reusable cupcake stand to be adjustable and I able to decorate it with custom colors to match the event.  My husband and I were getting the kinks out of that right up until the last minute!


There are four different flavor combinations of cupcakes...and each flavor is identifiable by the "suit".  I piped the diamonds, hearts, spades and clubs out of royal icing.  I was concerned with the taste of those, because very red and very black frosting usually does not taste the best, but I tweaked my royal icing recipe, and these were actually good.

 

The cake pops were done in matching colors, of course!  Birthday Cake, Red Velvet, Pumpkin, and Snickerdoodle.


 I had lots of matching candy on this table as well.  There was red and black licorice, red and black gum balls, candy coated peanuts (Boston Baked Beans), wrapped cinnamon hard candy, mints, red raspberries and blackberries, and red Peanut M&M's.  I ate a lot of those raspberries while I was working on this table!  There are some great websites out there that list candy by color when you are trying to do a table like this. 


 I also made chocolate dipped pretzel sticks in two different colors.


 These truffles are Oreo Cookie flavored.  Looking so nice in their little rows!
 

Thank you to everyone for all of your compliments at the party!  The party was a big success and hopefully I'll get to do a 100th birthday in ten years!

The BIG cookies for Halloween are Monster Cookies!


I baked some BIG cookies for Halloween this year for some special kids who were out and about in their costumes.  I thought these monsters would be soooo cute for Halloween.  Maybe I'll try different colors next time.  I thought the purple and green looked pretty great though!

They are BIG....4 inches across.  I used my Great Grandma's famous sugar cookie recipe, and decorated them with homemade royal icing, so they are delicious too!!

Baby Shower Buffet

Here is the dessert buffet that I did recently for a special baby shower.  All kinds of yummy things to choose from!  Cake Pops, Cake Truffles, Sugar Cookies, M&M's, Jelly Beans, Peanut Butter Candy.....delicious!



We had Cake Truffles: Birthday Cake, Very Berry, Peanut Butter Banana, and Chocolate Chocolate.  Peanut Butter Banana is one of my newest flavors, and is becoming a favorite!



 Here are some Flat Top Cake Pops with Diamond Tags that say "It's a Girl!".  They really dress up a tray of Cake Pops and are totally customizable.



Below are Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Buttercream frosting.  The little medallions that are on top are made of gum paste with a little glitter on them and are completely edible.  I have special boxes that I made for a tiered effect when I display my cupcakes.  They can be wrapped with a matching fabric or paper and ribbon.



The next photo is of the party favors that I made.  They turned out so adorable!  They can be done in any flavor, of course.  The flower on top is fondant with a pink candy pearl in the center, again, totally edible.  They look great on a tray or cake stand and the guests are so excited to be able to take one of these home with them!

Sports Cake Pops

These awesome cake pops are a little time consuming to make, but they are so cute!
The footballs are Chocolate Chocolate flavor, the baseballs are Birthday Cake, and the basketballs are Peanut Butter Banana.  You can order them any flavor* that you like, but the Peanut Butter flavored chocolate is the perfect color for the basketballs!!

Prices for 2012 are $30 a dozen. 

*(We have a few flavors that are only available as Cake Truffles and NOT Cake Pops...Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Oreo Cookie, and Chocolate Brownie Mint).

Cake Pop Roses!

 I have a really great gift idea that would be perfect for Mother's Day!  How about one dozen or even two dozen Cake Pop Roses?!?!  I love how these turned out!  The top photo is what two dozen looks like.  The standard flavors that I use for these are RED = red velvet, HOT PINK = very berry, and LIGHT PINK = pink champagne.  Two dozen would have eight of each flavor and one dozen would have four of each flavor.


You can choose the green pot with brown crinkle paper OR the white pot with white crinkle paper.....whether you order one dozen or two.  If you would like to order, just email us!  Make sure that you order 48 hours in advance and since I am especially busy at holidays, the deadline for Mother's Day is Wednesday, May 4th for 2011.

Tower of Cake Pops

A tower of Jean Marie's Cake Pops is a really unique and fun way to display the goodies for your party, wedding, or event!  These were done for a retro birthday party, so the pink and green colors are a little wild....but they looked so amazing on their tower!
 

A Cake Pop Tower can be customized with a ribbon color that matches your event.  The tower holds three dozen cake pops.  We have a package that includes the four different flavors/designs of cake pops, tower, delivery, and set up.
Our website is STILL under construction, but it is coming soon.  
When it is done, you'll be able to find these on the Events page.
For now, you can email me at caketruffles@live.com

Elegant Flat Top Cake Pops are great for Weddings!


 I did these wedding cake favors a while back, but haven't gotten around to getting them on the blog until now.  Flat Top Cake Pops look great on platters on the cake table at a wedding or can be used as part of the center pieces on individual tables for your guests to enjoy.  We fully custom design the diamond tags and can use ribbon and drizzle colors to match your decor as well.  Delivery charges apply in the Springfield, Missouri area, or they can be picked up in Strafford.  Check the Events page of our website or Contact Us for more information.

Superbowl Cake Pops

I am not really into football.  By "not really" I mean that I had to go online to see who was even playing in the Superbowl and to find out what colors the teams were so that I could make cake pops for our Superbowl party. They looked really cute!  (and cute is important, even at Superbowl parties!)

Pink Champagne Cake Truffles for Valentine's Day!

Well, after several attempts at testing recipes and tweaking, I've got the Pink Champagne flavor figured out! 

We will offer these for Valentine's Day as a specialty flavor that you can choose from.

You can order Pink Champagne the rest of the year as well for a custom order, as long as you order at least three dozen of them.  It would be a really great flavor for weddings!
