Top of the Cake Pops Workshop

The wonderful WI ladies with their cake pop creations
What a fantastic time we had with The Tea and Tarts WI in Huddersfield. We spent a great couple of hours teaching the lovely WI ladies how to make their own celebrity cake pops. The choices were Cakey Perry or Elvis Popsley,  we found ourselves to be amongst a brilliant bunch of imaginative and creative women some of whom created their own cake pop designs...we had a Smurf and Lady Gugu!

Kiss Me Cake - ready to get cake popping!
The inspiration for the evening came from April Carter's fabulous book "Top of the Cake Pops" and the WI ladies really got stuck in to creating some fantastic cake pops. We were astounded that so many people signed up to our workshop and at the final head count there were between 60-70 people all getting stuck in to rolling cake and dipping it into melted chocolate.

We just want to say a big thank you to Rebecca and all of the WI ladies for being so welcoming and signing up to our workshop. We hope that we inspired you to continue cake popping.
