Now the story of a group of cake pops who lost everything and the one baker who had no choice but to put them altogether. It’s Arrested Development Cake Pops… 🙂

The list includes: Mr Banana Grabber, Lucille Bluth, Loose Seal, Blue Tobias, Never Nude Shorts, Bluth Frozen Bananas, a Bowl of Candy Beans, Glisten Toothpaste, Franklin Delano Bluth the Puppet, a new Poof, and a Hook Hand.

This week was especially awesome! It was awesome because I had the chance to test shipping cake pops and it was a shipment at the request of the creators of the Robot Chicken TV Show! They contacted me to order some Robot Chicken cake pops to give them a try. Midtown Sweets doesn’t currently ship but it was a great opportunity to see what it takes since they were ordered as a Just Because.

Mr Senreich was kind enough to send a few pictures of one of the RC Cake Pops checking out the Studio. 🙂

With Halloween 2012 approaching, I decided to create another “Featured” Pop to celebrate the holiday. Last year, the Robot Chicken Cake Pop became fairly popular so I decided to pull another character idea out of the realm of Comic Con.

Midtown Sweets’ Halloween 2012 Featured Cake Pop is Hellboy from Dark Horse Comics. This pop was sculpted from chocolate cake and dipped in red candy melt. The goatee, hair, and eyes are colored candy melts. The cigar is made from marshmallow fondant.

These cake pops were created from a few leftover French Vanilla pops from a recent order.  If the Midtown Sweets schedule permits, every so often I will create some random cake pops just for the fun of creating.  Most will be based on a favorite character, games, TV show, etc.

These pops are based on a humorous line from a popular comedy TV show.  Can you guess what TV show?

These cake pops were ordered as a Just Because gift.

They were modeled after the character from the popular stop motion animated series, Robot Chicken.  They are Spice Cake Pops covered in white chocolate and detailed with fondant and modeling chocolate.  The beak, eye(s), and comb are tinted modeling chocolate. The face shield is black fondant brushed with silver luster dust.

Sometimes after a big order, I’ll take the left overs and practice designs or create something different. This week I took inspiration from Dungeons and Dragons and decided to see if I could create a few RPG dice (Role Playing Game).

These 4, 6, 8, and 12 sided Cake Pops are Chocolate Cake dipped in Chocolate Candy Melt and brushed with gold luster.  The numbers were added with a food color pen.
