I always admired the creativity and talent of Chavie from Frostings and Co. Last year, she created these adorable, fun, and eye-popping cakesicles that can be custom designed to fit any Purim theme. Thank you, Chavie, for sharing some of the secrets of the trade.

you will need:

• silicone ice cream molds
• ziplock or piping bag
• peanut chews or cake pop batter
• mini popsicle sticks
• printables for fondant pieces
• colored chocolate bars (colors can be enhanced by using candy color, which is oil based; do not use regular food coloring, as the water in the color will make the chocolate seize)

Elegant Pops
