Cakesicles







I came across this idea from blogger "Baking Bites". I think this is such a great idea if your wanting to do something other than cupcakes. Cake-sicles"! Bake them, then frost and decorate. You can also use the pan to make Crispy Rice Treats on a Stick. The pan is actually really cheap on Amazon at just $11.99 and I checked out Ebay and found them there. The advice that "Baking Bites" gives is great:

Cookies are thick and sturdy enough to hold their shape well if you slide a popsicle stick inside to complete the look, but cake can crumble when you put it on a stick. Instead, take two cakesicles, sandwich them together with frosting and dunk them into chocolate (white, milk or dark) to give them a real popsicle look. This is how the cakesicle in the photo above was made.

New Project

So, I have done my research and think the plan to start my Event Planning/Custom Favors/Coordination and all that jazz company is on way. The problem that I am coming up with is a name. This for some reason is the hardest thing for me. Being a marketing person, I know it’s important to have a name that will have marketing appeal and longevity.

Maybe a new venture.....

Currently I am studying to get my Masters in Communications and I just got a job at a very awesome bakery, so I am so busy its crazy. Being able to work in this bakery is really teaching me a lot about the business end of things, which is great.

When I do have free time, I have been thinking lately what I shall do with my degree. Well, along with doing the cupcake plan, I am very interested in event planning and weddings. Over the summer I took a certification in Event Planning, and love it. A friend kind of gave me a nudge to think about starting my own PR/Event Firm…so I am thinking about it…very much….
