That’s why I chose to endeavor making approximately Snowman Cake Pops this year.

The groovy matter close snowmen though, is that the snowballs are never perfect! No take for perfection when making these ones :)

I used a picayune chip of melted icing to attach each of the candy pieces, from the fruit-by-the-foot scarf, to the jube jube buttons, to the rolo too nighttime chocolate melt hat!

This recipe does require you lot to innovation ahead. You take fourth dimension to bake the cake, 2 hours to allow everything to set, too and then fourth dimension to decorate. The goal number is all worth is though!
