Wedding Cake "Cake Balls" - 5/22/10


These fabulous little wedding cakes are actually "cake balls" - a concept I found from Bakerella  You bake a cake, pulvarize it to crumbs, mix it with frosting and shape the "dough" into shapes, then dunk into melted chocolate.  The technique was a little harder than I thought, but they turned out ok!  These were the favors for Marie's Bridal Shower.

How did you dip. I have tried to dip and it isn't as easy as I thought it would be. I also tried pouring the chocolate over them, but they ended up sticking to the rack. I have a bridal shower coming up in a few weeks and I want them to look nice.

These things were a total pain to dip. I dipped the bottom "layer" of the "cake" let it set and then dipped the top two "layers". if I did them again I think I would put skewers or sucker sticks in the bottom to make the dipping easier and then just remove them when done.
