Week 7: Catch up week4/7/2024 This is week 7 of my project. I took this week to catch up with new recipes and ideas for my project. I have been feeling stressed out since it’s the first week back from spring break and I have so many assignments to accomplish for other classes. I decided that for week 8 of the project, I would attempt to make the Starbucks cake pops again. The first time I made these cake pops was in week 3 so it has been a couple of weeks since I have tried my first attempt. I need to make more time for preparation and organization. I have gotten into the routine of making dinners and desserts that I have forgotten about making the cake pops.
On week 3 I did well making the cake mix filling for the cake pop but I need the cake pops to look prettier than my first attempt. Everything went well until it was time to dip the cake mix balls in the icing. Every time I have made these cake pops in the past the chocolate melts is what becomes difficult for me. Either I overcook the chocolates and the chocolate becomes brown or the cake pops fall off the stick and into the chocolate and I have to get it out with my hand. I found videos on Instagram on how to dip the cake pops into the chocolate that I have saved which will hopefully make my second attempt a success. I will purchase the same items for the same flavor and type of cake pop I plan on making. I purchased a vanilla cake mix, eggs, popsicle sticks, cream cheese, and melting chocolate. I noticed a few changes I can make in week 8 that will increase my baking skills. Over these several weeks, I have learned many techniques and skills that will help me in the future.
