I experimented with making Mint Green colored candy melt yesterday. I searched the web for any help on what combination of candy melt colors would make a minty green color.  I found most people used the Mint Green Food Gel and some suggested mixing regular green and white but never gave any information on just how much of each. Since I didn’t want to use the Mint Green Food Gel (water-based food coloring can seize up chocolate) I opted for mixing the white and green.

I was pleasantly surprise that white with just a bit of green gave the nice light mint green color I wanted. 🙂

I used 8oz of White Candy Melts plus 1/4oz Green Candy or 96 White Candy Melts/Wafers plus 3 Green ones.

These Pig Cake Pops were created for a local company and actually contain a secret on the opposite side. The secret will be revealed once the company gives the go ahead. They were fun to make.

These Pete the Cat Cake Pops were created for Kota C’s 3rd Birthday. The pops were modeled after one of her favorite books, “Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes!”

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. 🙂
