When I first got my cake pops book, I went online to see what other people were making. Bakerella, the author of the book that my sister gave me, had these Hello Kittys on her site. They were ADORABLE. I had to give it a try.
Baking really sucks when you live in Hawaii. On days like this when it's hot and humid, your chocolate doesn't harden and it ends up ruining your day. I started dunking my pops around 3pm today, it is now 9:30 and I finished 3 pops. Not only that, 6 of my pops slid off the stick so now I have little Hello Kittys with holes at the top and bottom of their head. I hope the weather is better tomorrow cause I still have another batch in the fridge waiting to be dunked into chocolate >:(
Note to self: Don't make cake pops when it's humid. Also, wait until the chocolate is completely dry before trying to draw the faces on. You will just ruin it. GRRRRRRRRRR....

Very cute, so bad the weather didn't cooperate.
Thanks! I didn't even think about the humidity when I started today. I think I wanna move to Vegas or something...
For what its worth, I think they are cute! I heard these are a bitch to make... I give you credit. Try putting them in the freezer- that might help. AIBento blog tried making these awhile back and she said it took her forever too. Laura made them too- I think she didn't have as much problems since she's in Washington. Don't give up!
I finally put them in the fridge after 4 stinkin hours. The only thing is that when they did finally harden it was hard to draw on them cause of the light condensation. I don't want to pat it dry too much, I fear that it will start to smear. What to do...what to do...i'm having hard time with the pen too. Maybe I should try a different brand. I wish I tried these first. I didn't have a humidity problem at all for my valentines ones!
They are adorable, anyway, Les! This is not something I would want to try I don't think.
Thanks Betty!
I thought I commented already and came looking for your answer. Then I remembered . . . oh yeah . . . I texted it to you. So . . .
Ho da KAWAIIIIIII!!!
hahahhaah! Thanks Jalna...I hope you ate it this time. Hey, did you eat the other ones yet? I hope so or else you'd better throw them out. Or you can use them for a science experiment. Might be interesting.
