Just as I promised, this week I had my first foray into cake pops with Audrey II cake pop cupcakes! They were a bit more difficult to make than I thought they would be and, boy, are these cakes heavy! The little pots hold mini chocolate cupcakes with a small candy coated chocolate Audrey II cake pop in each one, and the large pot holds a jumbo chocolate cupcake with a bigger Audrey II candy covered cake on top. I used apple chewy candy for the vine tentacles and frosting for the pink warts and to frost the cupcakes. Don’t worry, I didn’t feed it blood to make it grow!

Even though they were a little complicated to make, they sure were fun and a total hit at the cast party I took them too. By the way, if you live in the Central Coast area near Salinas, CA make sure to see our production of Little Shop of Horrors. It just opened and it’s fantastic!
