The Muppets Cake Pops
Who’s ready for Disney’s The Muppets Movie coming out later this month? Anyone going? The previews look so cute with Jason Segel and Amy Adams and of course all of the Muppets, too. Fun! Fun!
To celebrate, I made some Muppet Cake Pops. And I’m so excited about how they turned out.
In the past, I’ve contributed several cake pop designs and other treats to Disney’s website, family.com. You may have seen some of them. Mickey & Minnie, Winnie the Pooh, Mr. Potato Head and more. And this year, I had the opportunity to make The Muppets for them. I jumped at the chance. In the beginning I was only going to try to turn a couple of those popular little puppets into cake pops. But you can’t just make two Muppets. That would be wrong. So I made a handful of them. Five to be exact. And, trust me, it was hard to stop there. If I had the time I would have loved to try the whole bunch.
Ready to see which ones I made?
Good. Because I made these weeks ago and I can’t wait to show you.
Here goes.
Can I just start by saying that I’m still amazed by the endless possibilities that candies offer in helping create cake pops. Just when I think there is no way to recreate a character, I come across the perfect candy or sprinkle to pull it off. Like these green jumbo diamond sprinkles for instance. Perfect!
And that’s what I find the most fun. The challenge of working with existing candies to recreate them.
I love how the hats came out. And the ears. And the mouths. I used Reese’s Minis for the hats if you’re wondering. The tiny unwrapped ones in the small bag.
Fozzie was the first Muppet Cake Pop design I made. And I thought for sure I wouldn’t be able to make any of the rest look as good. But, I’ll let you tell me what you think.
Alright, who’s next?
That hair. Those eyes. I can’t help but laugh when I look at this picture.
He was probably the easiest to make, yet so effective in resemblance.
This is one of my top five favorite Muppet Cake Pops.
Wait… I only made five.
Yeah, I’m having a hard time choosing. Rowlf was pretty easy, too. My favorite part was figuring out how to make his droopy ears. It’s easier than you think. Links to instructions are below.
So that’s four Muppet Cake Pops. Four boy Muppet Cake Pops.
I think we need a little girl power.
Piggy Power.
Okay these are my favorite. I’m sorry Rowlf. And Kermit. Fozzie I still love you. Beaker… well, your hair is lovely, but Miss Piggy’s is prettier.
She came out better than I could have expected. Her hair and nose. Those cheeks and eyes. I kinda can’t believe how similar she looks. I think I’m most proud of her.
Kermie. Piggy. A pop-ular pair.
And here’s the whole group so you can see them all together.
Now, if you’d like to celebrate the movie and make your own Muppet Cake Pops or just want to see how they are made, the directions for each are on Disney’s website. Have fun!

And don’t say you can’t do them. It’s totally possible. Check out these Muppet variations from Pop Star Vivy in California and these from Pop Star Kerry in Colorado if you aren’t sure.
Hope you enjoyed these.
Let me know which of the five should be my favorite. I really can’t decide.
If you can’t pick either, let me know which Muppet character you would have liked to have seen.
And don’t forget… The Muppets are in theaters November 23. Yay!
I can’t believe how much those all look like the real Muppets!! Is it ok to call a cake pop stunning? Because those are. Great job!
i think it is very cool that i am your first comment i think these are super cute too!
Oh my goodness! How adorable! I love them all, but I think Miss Piggy might just be my favorite, too. Then Kermit. But each time I look at them, I hear their muppet-y voices. These are spot on! They look fabulous!
apparently i am not your first comment anymore
Those are amazing!
It’s hard to decide a favorite. I really like Fozzie and Ms. Piggy. She looks perfect, but I think I like Fozzie Bear best.
A-Maz-ing!
I would like to see Gonzo and Animal.
by the way, i think that miss piggy kind of looks like you Bakerella!
These are soo cute and adorable!! You did an awesome job on them. They look so cute!
I love, love, LOVE the Beaker ones. He is just perfect! They all look so good though.
Absolutely darling! I love Miss Piggy and Kermit the most :)
I love all of them! Such perfect likenesses. Miss Piggy wins for me–but I love the Beaker & Rowlf ones, too. Can’t wait for the movie!!
OMG you have out done yourself! After looking at each one I would say “now that’s my favorite” they are all amazing. Hope you do the 2 grumpy old men one day, or the swedish chef and all his chickens or pigs in space they were the best or gonzo – I’d be curious to see how you’d make his nose. Maybe you could use a purple fruit loop. You are right there are too many awesome characters! Great job!
How cute! I just love them!
OMG they are absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!! Breathe taking :)
Wow! Just wow!
They are all amazing. I like them all!!!!
I bet doing Dr. Honeydew would be fairly easy–he’s nice and round! :) I’d also like to see the Swedish Chef.
Ack! So awesome!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! You have completely outdone yourself! These look amazing!
You are truly an artist. I am blown away.
They are all amazing (as usual) but as soon as I saw Rowlf you brought back some of my best childhood Muppet memories!
Oh The Divine Miss P is to die for dahhhling. I wish I was making Muppets this weekend instead of Twilight for our GNO party!
In the very nicest way possible, I have to say that miss piggy looks like miss bakerella. Maybe its the hair?
Oh gosh, please don’t take offense to that. ..am I the only one who sees it?
Animal!!!! I would love to see him!
These are unbelievable! …and so are you! They look spot on! Soooo amazing!
BEAKER!!!!!

However, I would like to see a Gonzo pop. He’s such an adorable weirdo.
This made me giggle!!! I love Miss Piggy and Kermit most of all!! LOL
Wow, wow, wow! These are outstanding! You did a wonderful job.
Wow! Miss Piggy is PERFECT! She really looks just like her! Lovely!
Oh, you’ve hit it OUT of the ballpark (again)….Yahoo!!! Thanks for making me SMILE big time tonight!!! :-)

Now I know why you were almost beaming when you said there were 5 new cake pops which would be released in the same exact post. “You will know when you see it!” These are perfectly detailed. You are such a talented lady! Hats (I mean Mini Reese’s) off to you!
AMAZING! Is there anything you can’t do!? Makes me giggle and say WOWZA!

OMG these are the cutest cake pops ever! You are sooooo clever!
You are amazing! Your Miss Piggy is INCREDIBLE!!!
These are THE MOST AMAZING pops you’ve ever done! I am in awe of your talent, and maybe somewhat envious ;) if I may be honest! Thank you so much for sharing!!
OMG I am totally blown away by these cute little muppets. You constantly amaze me with your creativity. I find it incredible how well you’ve shaped their faces let alone how perfectly you’ve decorated their faces. WOW!
I have some cake balls in the freezer that I think I will use to make one of each. Now to collect on the parts. Simply amazing!
I am amazed at your talent. I just started to attempt cake pops, usually I decorate cakes, but so far I can only manage your average ball shaped pops. I will have to just admire yours instead!! X x
YOU. HAVE. OUTDONE. YOURSELF!
They are all amazing, but Rowlf and Piggy are beyond spot-on!
You continue to inspire!
OMG I love love love Miss Piggy!!! But they are all the business
: ) Well done!
how amazing cakepops….
Hi there,
I’ve only recently discovered your blog and I’m already completely hooked. I have endless admiration for your creativity and skills. And than these Muppets… They are truly unbelievable. I don’t think I could bring myself te eating them. I’m making my first pops this weekend, so fingers crossed.
Greetz from The Netherlands
Wow! Couldn’t possibly choose, they are all superb – would love to see Animal.
Bakerella, these are all AMAZING!!! Some of your very best cake pop work yet, girl! I love them all. My favorite is Miss Piggy. She is total perfection. My husband is going to die when I show him these. He’s such a huge Muppits fan too. We are seeing the movie with all his family. I’m begging you to make Gonzo and Animal! Those two would be so great to see as cake pops, and so colorful. I’m going to check out how you made them right now. Love to you, Bakerella. :D
I’m speechless !! These are truly amazing!
How long did it took you to make them all?
How long did it took you to eat them? ;)
I have to design cupcakes for the Legally Blonde Musical in London soon and I just hope I’ll be a quarter as good as you.
Once again, amazing job!
Wauw ! They are really great ! Examples for your next book ? ( there will be e next book ??? )
Make Animal!! lol. He’s my favorite muppet.
I love these. They are stunning and so “real”
I think these are all just fantastic!! You continue to inspire! I can’t pick just one favorite, but it would be great to see the Swedish Chef or Gonzo :) Can’t wait to take my boys to see the Muppets!
Amazing! You’ve outdone yourself this time. Please oh please try to make the other Muppets too.
Your cake pops are so cute they make me want to see the muppets movie!
This is the best thing I’ve ever seen. I can’t freaking wait until this movie!!
It is unfair that one person can have so much talent! These are adorable. You have captured their personalities…especially Miss Piggy! Great job.
Oh my WOW!! Love the Muppets!! I can not wait to see the movie! Other Muppet favs for me are Animal, Scooter, and Gonzo!!
Oh my gosh, they’re all fantastic, but I can’t believe that Miss Piggy! These are SO cute! You rock!
These are truly works of art!!!
These are unbelievable! Glad to see that you are back Bakerella!
I’m in love with/awe of you. You are ridiculous. Just when I think you cannot surpass impressions left by your previous creations, you go and make Miss Piggy Pops with gorgeous blonde locks and lentils! Just awesome! xoxox:)
Absolutely adorable!
Oh WOW you are so talented. I have to say my favourite is Fozzie but it was a tough call as Miss Piggy is SO true to life.
Piggy is fantastic, but Animal is the best Muppet of all. Both the pop stars did a great job with him!
AMAZING! Your talent continues to knock my socks off :). I don’t think there’s anything you can’t make out of a cakeball!
Oh, you are too, too good, Angie! With every scroll down, I’d say, “ooo…this one is my favorite.” Scroll down, “ooo…this one is my favorite.” :) I can’t pick…each one is adorable and perfect! So, so cute!
Oh my gosh.. they are perfection.. I do have to say though.. that the muppets aren’t complete without A-N-I-M-A-L!!!!
Wow… just… wow… You are absolutely amazing! These look great!
Those are absolutely fabulous. Just when I think you can’t do better you come out with these!! I love them all but Ms. Piggy is perfect!!
You are SO talented!! I love them! I just got your book, it is so fun to look at. Even if I never get around to making any of the pops, I’m so happy to have your adorable book. My mama got it for me for my birthday :)
I LOVE them! how great!
I still can’t get my coating right, even with the oil. it’s smooth, but so thick it wont coat nicely. or it wont stick to the cake balls.Oh well. thanks for the pics they’re adorable
So cute!!!
OMG! I love the muppets and these pops are just spot on. I am so impressed with how much these look like the real characters. You captured their essence just perfectly, and I can’t wait to see what comes next…
Amazing! I love each one; however, Beaker is my all time favorite Muppet. So cute when he shrinks down into his shirt when he’s scared. You did a fabulous job with all of them.
You did an amazing job on these! It’s hard to pick a favorite. Gotta love the classic Kermit and Miss Piggy pairing though! On behalf of my brother, I would have liked to see an Animal cake pop. That was his favorite muppet (and the one he most resembled as a child).
Love Miss Piggy! Can’t Wait for thanksgiving and Christmas Cupcake Ideas!!
Oh my gosh. How to even decide? As I scrolled down with each muppet I was like “THIS one is the best”. They all look amazing, but I think Rowlf looks the smoothest. But like I sad, all fantastic.
OMG! Thee are so fantastic. What a talented woman you are. The Fozzie one’s are my favorite :)
Wow. You are incredible. Those are amazing.
These are incredible! Every time I see you’ve made new cake pops, I just know they are going to make me speechless!
You are beyond amazing. If I had to pick, I’d go with Miss Piggy!
OMG! They are tooooooooo cute! You are awesome!
