Pops Sweets on a Stick Book, Softcover

I was looking for a complete book with lots of decorating ideas. Wilton has it covered. The designs range from beginner to advanced but all achievable. It has recipes, tricks and ideas. Don't fool around with other books. This book covers all the bases. BTW, these cake pops are SO cute and yes it works. Fill the pans 3/4 full not all the way to the top! you will alleviate the Saturn rings and bake between 15-20 minutes or they will burn. Great purchase.

Just received this book and took a look through. This is very comprehensive with how to's in the front, along with recipes. Sooooo many adorable cake pop ideas. If you are just learning, this is a great standard book to have.

Loved the ideas in the book and cannot wait to make them in the future for different events. Not sure if I have the patience for the amount of detail on these pictures but they sure are cute.

I liked this "book", but as other reviewers mentioned, it is more of an idea magazine and not a step by step how to make cake pops book. That said, it includes ideas for cookie pops, brownie pops and cake pops. Though there is a section which covers making cake pop dough and different sizes of round pops, this book doesn't cover different flavors, different shapes (except pushing the dough through a tube) and decorating elements like candy, sprinkles, pretzels, etc. are not covered much at all. What is covered are cookie pops and brownie pops molded in Wilton molds, dipping pops into candy melted in a Wilton candy pro melting pot (microwaving not covered), pops dried in Wilton pop decorating stand (styrofoam not mentioned) and decorating using primarily Wilton candy sprinkles of all kinds and a lot of Wilton pre-rolled and tinted fondant. Almost all the pops are round or molded in a Wilton mold. They also neglect to mention using a cookie scoop, a great way to get your cake pops all the same size. Don't get me wrong, many of the pops are gorgeous and I will definitely be using some of the techniques, even the ones using fondant, but it is unlikely a beginner will be able to make these pops the first time. Instead, buy Bakerella's book, which isn't perfect, but is better for beginners and has photos of the decorating elements, makes different shaped pops, talks about candy temperature and cake pop temperature. It will at least give beginners a fighting change to make a recognizable pop the first time. Buy this book for ideas, after you buy Bakerella's book and view her website to learn to make cake pops.

I bought this book to go with a Babycakes Cake Pop Maker that I just purchased. The book includes recipes for cake pops made with crumbled cake and frosting, but with my cake pop maker, I really only needed the book for the decorating ideas. The book provides dozens of great ideas to decorate cake pops for just about any occasion, from simple designs to more complex. I can't wait to get started...

I don't know what I was expecting, I guess easier, more simple designs. Might be good for someone more experienced.

I already had Bakerella's cake pop book and just had to get this one to see inside the cover. It is full of ideas for all kinds of yummy pops. There are so many fun designs that if you like cake pops you should definitely buy this book.

So I bought this book because I decided to make cake pops for my best friends baby shower, and it was very helpful. I had bought another book also, but it didn't give as many tips as this one and didn't have as many different cake pop ideas. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is a beginner when it comes to making the pops.
