Mini ways to say Happy Valentine’s Day!

Heart Cake Pops

I made mini and many cake pops for you this past weekend. I had this idea I wanted to try just using basic round pops and color to make a sweet little display. So I set out to dip enough cake pops to get the job done. That turned out to be 350 plus. Yikes. Not quite sure what I was thinking … Around number 70, I was really starting to reconsider. I thought … oh my gosh I have to make five times that many. But when I start something I can’t let it go until I get to the end and see how it works out. I know this project doesn’t help you much for this year, but I thought the heart display could totally work for a lot of other things besides Valentine’s Day.

So keep reading below for the how to… or check out my big “mini” giveaway at the end of this post. It’s a mini way for me to say Happy Valentine’s Day!

Okay, here we go.

You can’t tell in the picture, but these cake pops are tiny. Like Cake Dots instead of pops. So tiny that you use a toothpick to dip them with instead of a lollipop stick. Yes a toothpick. The cake balls are actually about the size of a penny. But they are small for a reason.

  1. Regular size cake pops would take up a lot of table real estate.
  2. The lollipop sticks would be much taller and people would have a harder time viewing the design from above.
  3. I figured the proportions out so they would work on a pretty standard size piece of styrofoam to make it easier to recreate and transport.
  4. I only had to make one cake. Score.
  5. Mini is major cute.

steps

I based the display design off of a template (see below) I made so that it works with a 12X18 inch or 12X20 inch sheet of styrofoam you can find in craft stores. Then I worked backwards to figure out how many cake pops you’d need to make the the shape look right. Once I had that, I knew how big to make the cake pops. Or how little.

  • Crumble cake and mix with frosting
  • Roll into tiny cake balls. (basic cake pop instructions here) You can use the circles on the downloadable template as a guide for the right size. They should be slightly smaller than the circle so that when you add the coating they will still fit together nicely.
  • Keep rolling and rolling until you have enough
  • Dip a toothpick into melted coating and then insert into a chilled cake ball.
  • Dip entire cake pop into the coating and then sprinkle with non-pareils. They are tiny and will be the best size for these tiny treats.
  • Place in styrofoam to dry.

A couple of things to note.

  • Use a small plastic bowl to melt the coating. You can work with a smaller amount of coating when dipping. Just melt the coating in batches as you go. Then you can take breaks and watch the Walking Dead marathon on AMC in between.
  • Buy more than one sheet of styrofoam. You’ll need more room than the display size so they aren’t touching each other as they dry.
  • Invite a friend over to help you. It will go faster and maybe your neck won’t hurt like mine does right now from looking down and dipping for so long.
  • I’d try Mercken’s candy coating for this project. It melts nice and fluid – you don’t want thick coating on these. It will add too much volume.
  • I’ve probably discouraged you already. Kind of like I felt as I was starting making these. But I had a feeling they’d be cute when I finished so I went on… like I’m going to do now. And by the way, these completely make me giddy when I see them finished on the table (looking at them now), so I guess it was worth it. And it will definitely be worth it if one of you decides to try it out some day. Hope you do… with a friend.

Sprinkles

Use multi-color non-pareils for the second candy coating color. Minus the static.

Baby Cake Pop

Super cute.

When all the pops are done, prepare your display.

styrofoam

  • Wrap a 12X18 inch or 12X20 inch sheet of styrofoam with paper. I used the 19X25 inch single sheets you purchase at the craft store. You could also use wrapping paper though.
  • Packing tape worked best on the styrofoam to tape the paper down.
  • Print out the template provided centered on an 11X17 sheet of paper at somewhere like Kinko’s. The design is created for a 12X18 surface area but it is set up on 11X17 paper since that is a standard size to print. You’ll notice that some of the circles on the template are getting cropped off when they print, but that’s okay, you’ll have enough information to figure out where the pops on the perimeter should go. I hope that makes sense.
  • Tape the template down temporarily and use a safety pin to poke holes into the paper.
  • Remove the template and start arranging the cake pops using the template as a guide. Start in the middle and work your way out from the center. More than likely some of your pops will be bigger than you think and if you start at one end, left to right, they will start to tilt too much to make room as you place them in position. But if you start in the center, they will angle out equally all the way around. Again I hope that makes sense.

  1. Wow…these mini cake pops look gorgeous! My plans for Valentine’s day are to have a fun evening with two of my colleagues, as one of them will be leaving us soon :-( But my valentine is – of course – someone else, who is rather special to me :-)

  2. My Valentine is my boyfriend Marco.
    We are keeping it simple, getting a redbox movie and ordering hawaiian food to eat at home. He came up with this plan, which I feel is perfect for us. Special alone time with just the two of us is precious, and though we are happy in southern California, I do miss the delicious Hawaiian foods from where I grew up. Also, our three year anniversary is on february 18th, and we are going out for fondue, so expensive dinner twice in a week span would be too much. I’m very excited to exchange gifts and maybe surprise him with some home made dipped strawberries! =D

  3. My morning Valentine’s day dates will be my two boys. I have a little present waiting for them when they wake up. My plan is to go out for ice scream, an a picnic at the park. Once daddy get home he will have a a beautiful steak dinner waiting by me and followed by Bakerella’s chocolate cake for dessert. ;)

  4. I will have dinner with my two valentines with special dessert. My husband Daniel and our kid Raul!

  5. I will be spending the day with my two loves- my husband and my month old son :)

  6. My Valentine is my husband – after 25 years of marriage we know better than to venture out to dinner on Valentine’s. We will have a nice dinner at home, and go out another night!

  7. Happy Valentine day ???

  8. This year, as every year, my Valentine is my grandmother! When she was a kid, it was tradition to chose only one special person, and, since my grandfather had passed away when I was young, she was without her one and only Valentine. Every year, I call her and send a hand-written note, just to say hello and I love you. Boyfriends come and go while heart-shaped boxes of chocolate spoil after a few days, but my grandma will always be my Valentine :)

  9. I will be spending my Valentine’s with my fantastic boyfriend of 4 years! We started the day off with a cute card, then off to a trampoline park to bounce the day away. This was followed by a cute (homemade) Devonshire tea (scones with jam and cream) and the mini cookies I made from your recent cookie stand post.

  10. Hi! = )
    That’s such a cute idea! If only I had your patience!

  11. I love all things mini! Happy Valentine’s Day!

  12. My Valentine is my husband and my adorable 2.5 month old son! We’ll be having dinner at home and I plan to bake a chocolate cake if my son cooperates ;-).

  13. Happy Valentines Day!!! My valentines are my husband and daughter :) … We wIll likely celebrate Valentine’s Day late since it is a weekday… So we will just spend the evening together. :)

  14. My Valentine is my boyfriend of two years and my three year old brother. But you know what I’m doing this Valentine’s day? JURY DUTY!

  15. I have the day off on Valentine’s Day so my whole family is heading to the other side of the island and going to Costco. LoL. It’ll be fun. And then I’m coming home and watching Glee. ^.^

  16. Oh my gosh you are so awesome! How cute are these minis! V-day looked to be a bit bleak this year with my boys being under the weather, but we will definitely be staying in and doing something fun -like cooking together :)

  17. my valentine is my fiancé, justin…we’re not doing much for valentines day since we are getting married next month!!! (: however, I thought I would make dinner in the crock pot for him to come home to after work (since I work nights and won’t be home when he gets home) happ vday!

  18. I actually don’t have a Valentine, but I plan to spend the evening with my amazing friends! We’re going to get together, eat good food, enjoy some wine, and watch movies that will make it impossible for any real man to live up to the cinema version. :) Love your blog!

  19. My Valentine is Nathan, Gavin, Chloe, and Sawyer. I love them all! We have a class party, then homemade heart shaped pizza for dinner!

  20. You always make me smile….Thanks

    My Valentine is my husband who still melts my heart. We will be staying home and enjoying our family together.
    Love is in the air!!!!

  22. HELLO BAKERELLA! <3 My Valentine's day is with my boyfriend. I'm leaving the next day to go to Los Angeles, so we're just staying in and having crab.

    P.S. I loveeee your blog!

  23. I will be spending my Valentine’s with my fantastic boyfriend of 4 years! We started the day off with a cute card, then off to a trampoline park to bounce the day away. This was followed by a cute (homemade) Devonshire tea (scones with jam and cream) and the mini cookies I made from your recent cookie stand post.

  24. Happy Valentine’s day. These are so cute, and seem like a good starting point for a novice cake pop maker as the decorations are fairly simple. I think I have some new plans for the weekend!

    My valentine is my fiance, who is sadly still on the east coast. So it will probably be a quiet day at work and home. But we are counting down the days till he can move out here to the west coast, so at least we have that to look forward to.

  25. My valentines is my husband who is in the navy and therefore at sea :-( so I’m sitting in bed pon valentines night drinking tea and eating chocolate cut off cuts… Which I’m now wishing I kept to make these cute little cake pops!

  51. My Valentines will be spent with my loving husband of 13 years & our 3 daughters. Planning a special dinner with the 4 loves of my life & perfect way to end the night would be these adorable mini cake pops!! I’m sure they would live it!

  52. My Valentine is my boyfriend. We don’t really have plans because he’s been sick and not feeling up to going anywhere or even having me over (doesn’t want me to get sick either) so we’ll have to celebrate some other time.

    Thanks for this great giveaway!

  53. My Valentine is my boyfriend. I’m cake pooped from making so many cake pops for Valentine’s Day… so we’re going to have a night on the couch with delicious take-out. :)

  56. My 5 year old son is my Valentine. 365 days a year he is also an actual heart patient with a congenital heart defect. He had his first open heart surgery at 8 months old. He is my hero. As is his amazing father that has worked 2 jobs 7 days a week for almost three years to pay off his medical bills and save for his next surgery. Valentines means much more to us than candy, it really is about the things that matter from the heart. Happy Heart Month!! Get your blood pressure checked and make sure EVERY newborn you know has their pulse ox checked before they leave the hospital. Donate Life!!

  87. My husband (and daughter) and we like to stay in away from the crowds on valentines day ;)

  88. My husband has to work tonight so my valentine is my little man, 6 month old Jack…we will probably just snuggle and watch Law and Order SVU…thank god he has no clue what is happening on that show lol
