baby shower today and i hate cake pops

edited August 2011 in Baby showers
I am sooo tired I fought the cake pops last night and they kicked my ass. This is my second night in a row of 5 hours of sleep and boy am I paying for it. To tired to be excited for my shower which is good it will make time fly by at work. I get off at noon and shower is at 2pm. I got like 20 rsvp and sent out about 40 invites so it will be a suprise who shows up. Lots of family and friends so I know it will be a good time regardless. But I still never ever want to see a cake pop or candy melt again in my life!! I know a lot of you ladies are having showers today to I hope they are great! I feel so blessed and thankful already I know it will be great! Now I just gotta wake up I am in serious zombie mood today is really a I want a monster day! I hope all you preglys have a great day if those of you who said cake pops were easy

  • Oh no! Don't hate the cake pops! :-S
  • Never heard of them
  • Fight back momma..don't let those cake pops win lol! Hope you have an awesome baby shower today and get lots of good stuff!! (I hope you get a gift certificate for a massage, I so wanted one but didn't score that. Just some blankets and clothes. Not complaining but who doesn't want a massage? Really..?!?). Have a good day and enjoy :)
  • I'm w/@azmom...wut r.they?
  • Where do u get cake pops? I hear a lot of good things about them..
  • I wana know what they r too...@azmom.. what part of az are u frm and when r u due? Sry off topic..
  • @blueberrysmom oh wow thanks!!!! Looks simple enough
  • @adri805 Yeah. I enjoyed making them. I would suggest using only 2/3 of the amount of frosting they suggest. Otherwise, those instructions are great. Here's how mine turned out:

  • @blueberrysmom they came out good!!!!!! Did they taste as good as they look?
  • They're very tasty. I made chocolate. Next time I'll just use less frosting so they'll be a little less mushy on the inside. @adri805
  • @blueberrysmom thanks good to know!!!! The sticks can b bought at grocery stores? Or craft stores?
  • I got the sticks, the decorations, and the chocolate to melt and dip them in at ac moore, the craft store. @adri805 Have fun!
  • Wouldn't cup cakes be easier? Try r adorable but seems luke a ton of work involved! Is there a lot of work to them?
  • I'm still planning to whip up a bunch around Christmas for the single airmen :). I made cookies last year, but I wanna step it up a notch.

  • Omg a millon years hour later sorry longest response time ever! Anyways after my shower on Saturday and working fri,sat, and sun I was so wiped out. Now its Tuesday and I am 36 weeks today yay!
    @lmelanson my shower was so awesome. I had a great time and so did everyone else. We had about 20 people in the banquet room at the resturant I work at. Ordered appetizers and had bread, fresh fruit and iced tea or lemonade. The cake was marble with strawberries and we had homeade to die for red velvet cup cakes(which no one noticed so I took a lot home:). I had a diaper raffle and got a stack of diapers taller than me most my brand and a grip of wipes. I couldn't be more grateful it will help so much. We played serval paper question games and don't say baby. I sent everyone home with a blue cake pop sprinkled with blue and green sugars. To match my theme blue and green with zebra print. I also made awesome centerpieces with long stem white roses(costco baby! ) feathers and kinds of stuff. Lots of our family coworkers customer and friends came a few people didn't make it but that's ok. My son and husband stopped by at the end. Aden got a lot of toys too which suprised me but he was stoked. And the presents wow I got baby trend car seat and double stroller, baby to toddler rocker, projection mobile, 2 sets of bottle, baby monitors, converse high tops, an abdunace of blankets onies jammies shoes wash cloths all kinds of outfits. Gandma even got outfits for both boys that match. So excited about that one I forgot I get to make them match. I was really suprised about all the great stuff I wasn't expecting much in fact most people asked and I told them only the presence was requsted because we saved everything from our first. Just diapers if they wanted to enter to raffle. Shower was great wasn't ruined til the end when my sister and I got into at my apartment. Ruined going out to dinner with my dad and stepmom they just left instead. Oh sad note my mom who bought the cake lives in ga so she just asked I take a picture of me with it and I totally didnt t take any pictures oh well I know someone did I will post pictures if I can find any.


    Omg sorry for the novel


    @mommi_of_2 I am right there with you never again although I am afraid I might have pople ask for them. Everyone seemed to like those nasty dough balls.

    @kalasthename very time consuming the you tube videos make them look so quick and easy.

    @blueberrysmom I know I was sad thought I would love to make them I bake. Maybe if I had allowed more time. Yours look awesome did you use chocolate and candy melt?? Which was easiest to drip in?

    @azmom @adri805 take the easy way out go to starbuck and try one of theirs.

    @momtob I won! Everyone liked them which made the effort worth it. Oh and they also made super cute centerpieces. I filled a vase up and topped it with styrofom with cake pops stuck in. A massage would of been good by the time this was all over! Maybe I will splurge and take myself out to get my ankles rubbed in a weeks to make this baby come. Good idea!


    @mandac10 tons of work cupcakes way easier but worth the effort people oh and ahh


    Ok I think I covered everything whew! But to tired to proof read lol
  • Most awesome update ever lol! So glad you had fun and got lots of good stuff..matching outfits for your boys? That's soo cute! Ps- I'm 36 weeks today too! Let's hear it for full term september babies :)
  • @momtob haha would of been better with pictures. The matching sets are so cute one says big brother and little brother! I can't believe I hadn't though about matching outfits. So your due the 6th too? Yay! I can't even believe there is a full infant in there and I am gonna be a mom again! The suprise of when is he gonna get here is killing me.
  • I used chocolate melts and vanilla candy melts from the craft store. They both melted easily in the microwave and dipped great!
