Cheesecake, pink chocolate, and sprinkles that shimmer... Yup, I'm all set! Cheesecake pops are so much fun, and they have party written all over them. I don't know what it is about miniature desserts, but I just love them. These pops are great for a party and people go crazy over them. The flavor combinations are endless, and this season I've been doing my "in the pink" pops.
I used my raspberry swirl cheesecake, dipped them in pink chocolate, and covered them in the prettiest rainbow sprinkles. They just seem to fit all the occasions happening lately from Mother's Day, to graduations, to showers. I've been making them a lot recently as favors for showers, and presented in a pretty vase or mug, they make fabulous gifts.
Cheesecake pops are also great when you need a fabulous dessert in a pinch. If you don't happen to have a cheesecake on hand, and you don't have the time to whip one up, you could use a store bought one. Don't worry I won't tell ;) Once you zhush the pops up with chocolate and different toppings they will be dressed to impress, and your guests will think you are a rockstar!

ReplyDeleteYUM! They look wonderful. LOVE the sparkly sprinkles!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great party idea. Especially for kids parties. I can see how these would be a raging success!
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable! People do go crazy for anything in "pop" form. I make cake pops recently for Easter and they went over very well. I like your idea of the cheesecake pop better though!
ReplyDeleteThese look perfect! When I made mine awhile ago they were dripping all over the place!

ReplyDeleteSo DAZZLING!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! Bite-sized pink dessert!
ReplyDeleteThey're awesome. I love those sprinkles as well. Now I need to find me some. Thanks for sharing the recipes and technique.
ReplyDeleteWow these pops look so cute and delicious!!!
ReplyDeleteThose are adorable (and yummy, too, I'm certain!). And I LOVE your sprinkles :)
ReplyDeleteI fell in love with these cake pops ever since I saw them - they are so cute! My version had the scone cake held together with cream (it also tasted a little like cheesecake), but using pure cheesecake is such a genious idea, because you don't need to crumble the cake, mix with the icing and all that. Yours look wonderful. LOVE them :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are the most adorable little pops. Love the pretty little sprinkles on top. This would be the ultimate birthday dessert for kids' party!
ReplyDeleteBTW-Thank you for the tri-color cookies. My daughter received them, and they love it. I did not get to see it or taste it yet, have not had a chance to stop by...sigh
Well, heck, who doesn't love sprinkles!? Especially when they're the cute holiday or seaonally themed one - I'm a total sucker for those! It's a really good thing they don't take up more room because I have more jars of sprinkles than I do spices... Have you been to this website yet? http://www.sweetbakingsupply.com/ Crazy sprinkles galore!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea to use cheesecake! And I loved your raspberry cheesecake post so I'm sure these are delicious!

ReplyDeleteThese look great! I tried making cake pops and I wasn't huge fan, but I really should give cheesecake pops a try. :)
ReplyDeleteOh I am so loving the idea of cheesecake vs. cakey cake pops. Nice work! Also-loving all the pink!
ReplyDeleteYum! I love these and also love the fact that you can get some of the graham cracker crust in there too (my favorite part!) I'm going to have to try these!
ReplyDeleteSupper cute! These would be dangerous for me to have around. I'd pop them all in my mouth! Love your creative ideas
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of cheesecake pops over regular cake pops. Next time I have a party I will makes these!
