  they also taste like garbage!
context: I've ate many of these and not posted pictures of them once. >
  
  same >
  
  Not have taken pictures gang >
  
  Ive never even taken a selfie in general lol >
  
  It's to be a quick SMALL portioned treat. That's the whole purpose. >
  
  They're also perfect to make with leftover cake. They freeze and dethaw really well. >
  
  Just saying this in case English isn't your native language. The word is "thaw". If you were to "dethaw" something, that would be the opposite of thawing it, which would mean you were freezing it.
  "They freeze and thaw really well" >
  
  I’m not sure why people downvote helpful language corrections, especially when they are polite, like yours. I always appreciated corrections from native speakers. >
  
  why do people use lol when the subject isnt funny? >
  
  I think everyone here is thinking of the expensive Starbucks cake pops. I worked at a bakery and every time we had excess cake from shaping, we’d make them into cake pops to be sold. They were slightly bigger than your average cake pop, but they were still small enough to be a nice treat. They honestly were really good. 
  What’s also funny is that a lot of desserts are like this. In the same bakery, a lot of our desserts were the same size if not smaller than the cake pops. It was quality and not quantity. I get what the OP is saying, but they are a way to avoid waste and many people enjoy them. 
  There is nothing specific about cake pops to hate, considering that there are literally tons of desserts that you can eat in 2 bites. >
  
  The thing to hate about them is that they are an unappetizing ratio of crumbled cake and frosting. They don’t taste good. >
  
  I feel like you haven’t had good cake pops. I don’t care for cake in most scenarios, but I’d always choose cake pops over cake. >
  
  I think they’re cute but they all taste like shit idk why. They look good but ugh >
  
  
  You get at MOST two bites out of it
  
  It’s not supposed to be a whole freaking meal.  It’s a treat.  A snack.  A…  pop. >
  
  Cupcakes aren’t a whole meal either, but they’re more than just a teaser >
  
  Man never heard of a mini cupcake >
  
  My reaction to your response. >
  
  Depends on where you get it from, there’s a local sandwich shop near me that has these amazing cake pops!! They’re mini cakes una push pop type container. >
  
  Hard disagree. You must be defaulting to the crap on a stick from Starbucks. Go work at a craft store and check in the breakroom after Wilton events. You'll find people that make a cake pop the way some people make those bloody mary cocktails with a whole sandwich in place of celery.
  Edit typo >
  
  Good job, that is an unpopular opinion. >
  
  Thanks for not actually getting angry at me for a post relevant to the sub >
  
  i was really disturbed to find out that's it's like a chewed up bite of cake dipped in chocolate rather than just a cake sphere >
  
  There's products that bake them into balls but thats just a donut hole on a stick. >
  
  I FULLY agree, they suck honestly >
  
  oh nah I agree with this. friend wanted me to make them with her once, you bake a perfectly good cake then you destroy it and smush it into these horrible mushy spheres with probably untempered chocolate and its all drippy and messy. Just eat a cupcake please >
  
  I made them once and was very sad by this. The cake was wonderful but once into pop form it was disgusting. >
  
  Now I'm curious to try one since it's hard to fathom how cake and frosting could be disgusting, unless it's moldy or something. >
  
  They are a good use of the leftover scraps of cake cut off when making a layered cake. What else are you going to do with those thin, uneven pieces? >
  
  Exactly, I make them when I have bits leftover from leveling off cakes. It’s a great way to make something extra out of scraps >
  
  Kids like them >
  
  Agree. And they always have a weird mushy texture. Not to mention how overpriced they are >
  
  Sliders are terrible. They're what... two bites. Just a tease at that point. And shot glasses, that's just a tiny cup. The real ones drink liquor in at least a 12oz glass. /s >
  
  Nah, aunt Nonna makes the best no bake cake balls what are you talking about, the Oreo flavors ones are the best. May you never get the satisfaction of one of the best desserts I've ever had in my life. Absolute horrible taste. >
  
  So my mom messed up two cakes that she needed ready for the next morning. What else am I gonna do with the damn cake that needs to be shared between a lot of people and instead of wasting perfectly good cake, I made her a butt load of cake pops. The people at her job loved them and they each got 2. I don’t see the problem. If you don’t want a $3 cake pop, then buy a slice of cake, or better, make one yourself >
  
  I’m not a huge fan of sweets, and I find a cake pop to be the perfect size. It’s a small treat. >
  
  Cake pops are perfect.  Most cake is really difficult to eat and unsatisfying after the first two bites anyway. >
  
  I don’t think I’ve seen anyone post a cake pop pick since like 2013 lol >
  
  They're pointless because they are round......but you're forgetting about the stick! >
  
  "This thing that I don't like is pointless"🤡 >
  
  Of course I don’t like something if I find it pointless. That kinda comes with it >
  
  No my point one is that just because you find it pointless don't mean it is
  Maybe some people just want two bites of cake (I don't know who psychos maybe lol) >
  
  I feel like you are 8 years late on this >
  
  Huh? >
  
  I haven't seen a cake pop in over 5 years >
  
  Leave your house then?
