Growing up, I loved eating ice cream push ups. I remember buying them at our school snack shop, The Buc Stop (we were the Buccanneers) during lunch recess. It was such a simple, easy way to eat and enjoy ice cream. For those of you who don't remember what those push ups are, here is a pic:
Most if not all of my baking trials are adapted from my fellow baking bloggers. They provide inspiration to my novice baking skills. So when I came across the idea of cupcake push pops, I knew it was something that would make my baking and decorating life much simpler.
Cake pops for example are pretty to look at, but the amount of time and effort it takes to create one is more than I would like to. Its a very long process, especially for creating specific characters such as Hello Kitty. There are plenty of other things I would like to do other than bake such as SLEEP.
These are much easier to create. All you have to do is make the batter, bake, cool, and pop one in the container and frost. Its very convenient for those who only want to enjoy one mini cupcake at a time and save the other for later. I made these for Kylie's BFF, Savannah's 6th birthday this past Saturday. They were a big hit! The only issue I saw when the kids were consuming these bad boys was they put too much pressure pushing the cupcakes out of the tube. There were a few casualties of course, but luckily there were plenty of cupcake push pops to go around. Happy 6th Birthday, Savannah!

I'm starting to finally make use of our SLR camera. So long to blurry Blackberry pics! ;)
