How about a Cake Pop Cake from Nashville's Party Pops by Julie


Happy Wedding Season! If you've been following my business on Facebook (Party Pops by Julie), you know without a doubt its wedding season. Lots and lots of brides, grooms, cakes, and swirls. This week proved to be a VERY busy week. The 'cake' to the left is for a lovely couple who held their reception in Downtown Nashville at the Hard Rock Cafe. Wanting to do something unique, this couple selected four flavors (Vanilla Dream, Death by Chocolate, Strawberry creme and Brown sugar cake with browned butter icing) and 3 designs for the cake pops for their 150 guests. That's 302 cake pops (including the topper)..but who is counting??? To tell the truth, I made about 330 total 'just in case' (i.e. just in case I dropped some, which for the record I only dropped one., lol).
When you combine this with the other orders I had going this week, including pandas, unicorns and kitties, I really thought I'd be about 'popped out' today....but surprisingly I eagerly made 2 more dozen for some upcoming orders and even worked out a few new designs for Halloween. There must be a 12 step program out there for people like me....but for now I'm enjoying my 'addiction'! Happy October!
