You can eat multiple??? Cake pops are also a different texture than cake or cupcakes. They are usually made by mixing cake with frosting and forming them into balls and dipping them in chocolate. Sometimes people decorate them. The decorated ones bakeries are usually a little expensive because decorating takes extra skill and time, but they aren’t too difficult or expensive to make basic ones at home.
It's to be a quick SMALL portioned treat. That's the whole purpose. >

I’m just not a person who is satisfied with one bite of something >

I'm not either. But I'd rather have a few bites than eat a whole cake... 👉👈 >

It does seem like it’s good for kids though. >

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 >

I've ate many of these and not posted pictures of them once. >

same >


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 >

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. >

100% agree >

I FULLY agree, they suck honestly >

Cake pops are better than regular cake in my opinion and I am prepared to die on that hill. >

That’s fair. I’m not a big cake eater, but I feel like if I was it’d be hard for me to eat more than one. And they’re kinda expensive to be doing that >

I don't like regular cake only because it's just too much for me personally, especially considering the sugar and fat content of a slice with the exception of tres leches cake, that I can totally get into.
But I like cake pops moreso because they are on the smaller size and since they're dipped in chocolate/white chocolate rather than loaded with super sweet frosting, it's right where I want them to be as far as how much fat and sugar I want to consume. 
Though I think they can be pricey as well. >

wait until u hear about lollipops >

? You’re supposed to lick lollipops, not bite them off in one go >

Let me introduce you to my husband. >

Absolute menace >

I concur. >

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 >

Good job, that is an unpopular opinion. >

Thanks for not actually getting angry at me for a post relevant to the sub >

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. >

I like them. I get a little something sweet and don't feel like I ate too much. >

I love them. I hate cupcakes cause I feel so gross after eating them. I hate large portions. that’s why I like cake pops, they’re just enough to have something sweet without being a whole desert. >

So they aren't pointless. You just don't like them >

If they were actually cakes I’d be onboard but what’s the point of baking a cake and them smooshing it all up?! >

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? >

Kids like them >

I think they’re cute but they all taste like shit idk why. They look good but ugh >

I’ve made them for my kids parties and whatnot. My recipe makes about 36. Perfect for little kids, but I kind of hate making them. Sure, if you buy them, they can get expensive, but I’ll happily shell out the cash for the occasional treat if it means I don’t have to make it when she wants one. I’d rather make a cake. I dislike making cupcakes too, but for kid parties, cupcakes and cake pops make sense.
