Dudley’s creativity birthed seasonal and themed cake pop recipes as she began posting more of her creations online. The treats found fans and followers quickly, and cake pops were served at events, parties, weddings, and Starbucks stores. Dudley even began selling her own cake pops kit. “I guess you can say imitation is the best form of flattery,” Dudley told CNBC after cake-pop-making appliances began flying off shelves in the early 2000s. “If I said a company stole my idea, it would be like me saying a home baker couldn’t make cake pops either.”
With a straightforward process and a flexible recipe, making cake pops is one of those aesthetically pleasing experiences that offer both a convenient and cute approach to hosting. Customizable according to color, flavor, and design, cake pop recipes remain a solid bet for entertaining, and the bite-sized pieces provide just the right amount of sweetness to end meals and keep guests smiling. These desserts are here to stay.
