It only seems like the other week I was making Mr Bus the Campervan cake for his birthday. This year I decided on a minion cake from Despicable Me. Then a flash if inspiration hit me, this is what happened: Cake pops are incredibly hard to decorate. I had done ones in the past with chocolate which were a nightmare, this time I used the proper candy melts, this was still tricky but I think might be improved with practice. It also made me realise I need a proper cake pop stand!! To make Gru I used a pyrex bowl to bake the cake for his head and iced it, then baked a small round cake for his shoulders and iced that separately, fixing them in place with buttercream. Not much is needed in the way of cake filling due to the icing as you don't want it too sweet.
