Oreo Cookie Pops

[Denzelmum]

Made this for DD's 6birthday, no cake - just Cookie Pops.  She even helped to make and decorate.  Decided to make plain ball and heart shape (using IKEA silicone mold).  Big hit for the party.  My only issue I didn't put them properly on the vase so can't balance and make it standing nicely.  Ended up put most of them in the tray, but everyone really enjoy it.

Maybe next time using TimTam instead of Oreo..

Also nice Denzelmum is to use choc mint slice biscuits (using less cream cheese), chocolate chip biscuits etc.....the list is endless really.

I did indulge a little  with buying a cake pop stand.
I have been asking hubby for.....forever.....just to drill some holes in some wood, so I have a good sturdy stand.
Well.....waited too long, and found this perfect acrylic (ridiculously priced and huge postage  ) from ebay.



That will teach him for being too slow!  LOL 
I make them often, so I thought it justified the price

It sure does maddy, with all the cake pops you make it has to make things easier for you. It shows them off beautifully.

[Frozzie]

wow yes...they look wonderful although still think overly sweet looking...very well done though...although everyone knows how clever you are and yes that will teach DH although think the clear acrylic stand shows off better than a wood one would even though i love wood..just gorgeous and did you make the flowers as well or are they bought?? Also are the sticks reusable or throw away??

Maddy that is a visual spectacle - you certainly know how to display in a wonderful manner!   If oreo pups featured on my menu as regularly as you produce them I would not hesitate in such a purchase either!    

[maddy]

Oh no.....they're not my cake pops.....they were the photo on the ebay picture 
Love the colours though.  They have used fondant in a silicone mould to get the flowers.....it is very pretty I think.
My stand arrived today, but  I plan to use it soon

  Could have fooled us maddy, yours are always just as good.

[Frozzie]

proof i was fooled just didnt know if you made the tops or not lol....a big compliment haha    oh well look forward to seeing your cake pops in the stand then maddy 

[Denzelmum]

Very pretty presentation!  I'm pretty sure this is reusable.

Maddy - what about biscuit without cream, say granita or Nice, does it work well to for this?

[maddy]

Any biscuit you would like the eat works D/Mum......and you don't need to use cream cheese either.
Originally cake pops are made with crumbled cake, and butter icing (flavoured or plain)
It's just a matter of experimenting and combining what you like.
I like using biscuits as it's quicker then cooking the cake first, then crumbling it etc.

Thanks, Maddy!

But the biscuits taste sooooo....... much nicer than the cake crumbs - I used this recipe at Xmas for mini Xmas pudds - melted white choc and mint leaves and raspberries (the lolly variety) as the custard, holly and berries - for my students instead of the traditional fruit cake and they all loved them.  Have to wait until Christmas 2011 for pics though!

Great stand Maddy.
We had some cake pops in Singapore and I must say that I prefer the ones made with biscuits.

[judydawn]

I have to agree with you Cookie.  Tonight I thawed out some carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and make 6 pops in my cupcake mould and although they taste OK, I don't think the kids will like them as much as a biscuit filling.  I had so much trouble melting both the brown and white chocolate tonight and they simply are not worth taking a photo of.
