angry birds cake pops

The obsession continues...both with angry birds and cake pops, so it was only natural that the two would come together for me. This evening I played around a bit and made the red and yellow birds.

Red Bird

Materials: Wilton candy melts (red), lollipop sticks, vanilla cake balls, Wilton candy eyeballs, Wilton sprinkle set for animal pops (orange beaks), Dare jujube in black cut into angry eyebrows

1) Dip lollipop stick in melted candy and insert into cake ball and let set.

2) Dip cake pop into melted candy, pull out and tap to remove excess.

3) Quickly place eyes, eyebrows and beaks into melted candy on cake pop.

4) Using melted candy, form head feathers on parchment and place in freezer to harden. Attach to top of cake pop with a bit of melted candy.

I was so happy with my first attempt at these, I squealed! My sons just shook their heads at me.

Yellow Bird

Materials: Wilton candy melts (yellow), lollipop sticks, vanilla cake balls shaped into thick triangles, Wilton candy eyeballs, Wilton sprinkle set for animal pops (orange beaks), Dare jujube in black for head feathers, Swedish berry for red eyebrows (I just used what I had on hand)

1) Dip lollipop stick in melted candy and insert into cake ball and let set.

2) Dip cake pop into melted candy, pull out and tap to remove excess.

3) Quickly place eyes, eyebrows, head feathers and beaks into melted candy on cake pop.

So as I wait for the daily updates for my Angry Birds Season Summer Pignic game, I will be planning some more angry birds cake pops. To be continued...

im looking for the jujubes you used for the angry eyebrows, what does it look like before you cut it into the angry eyebrows

Hi Linda-
I just used regular jujubes. Where I live, they were the Dare brand but that might be Canadian. Black gumdrops, black licorice or winegums would work too. I just sliced them into thin slices with a slightly wet knife (so it wouldn't get so sticky) and then used kitchen scissors to cut each slice into a V-shape. Hope that helps!
