Being on the Martha Stewart Show was so much fun! After the live taping at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, April 3, my mom and I hurried back to the hotel so we could watch it. (In New York, it airs at 1:00 p.m.) And since, everything was a big, giant blur, I couldn’t wait to see how it came across on TV. So, we got to the room and I pulled out my digital camera and took a bunch of pics of the show as we watched it on the flat screen – just in case no one back home taped it for me. I’m glad I did, because after New York, my mom and I flew to Dallas for a few days before coming home. So, the pics were all I had to look at until I could get back home to my computer. Anyway, (blah, blah, blah) I thought you might want to see a few pics, so here are some stills of the show and also a few pics my mom took for me.
Here’s Martha, looking fabulous!
I got lucky and met Emeril Lagasse, too!
Bam! He was really nice.
Rolling…
Laughing and playing with “the chocolate”
Yes, she really did say that.
Wow! I still can’t believe that’s me. Thanks Martha!
Here I am, the day before in the fabulous kitchen helping to work on the food swaps. Too bad you can’t see the guy’s face on the right. He was yummy!
Me and some pink candy melts
This Way…
Lots and lots of lights.
Here’s some of the seats for the live audience
To the left is the cooking area and to the right, the crafting area… the set was so cool!
Martha’s entire team was fantastic. My producer was so great and made me feel at ease. And also, the kitchen team… Wow… I wish I could just thank them again.
My mom and I say goodbye!
My friend says that she loves your Disney stuff and that you should try a Tinkerbell one.
I’m totally a big fan! I have your book!
Congratulations!

Hey everybody! Thanks so much for the comments and congratulations. It was everything you guys said and then some. I’ll post some more instructions for the pops soon.
Now, I’m ready to start baking.
Thank you for sharing your pictures with us. I’ll try to catch this episode when it gets shown here, if it hasn’t yet! I haven’t tried your goodies yet but I so would love to. :)

Hi Bakerella! You don’t even know who I am, but I wanted to tell you I saw you on Martha and you are such a cute person! So bubbly and happy! Thanks for the way cute cupcake pops! What a great idea! Can’t wait to make them!
That must be one of the greatest moments in your life! Congrats for being in national tv! I watched you!
Congrats from me too (I wonder when that episode is going to be aired here..) You are very lucky and officially a celebrity :)
I think it so amazing that you got to experience this! Congratulations!!
Wow what a great experience! Love the photos!
The show was wonderful and I am so happy to have found your blog. What great ideas you have! I made the Red Velvet Cake Balls covered in white chocolate the other day. My husband loves Red Velvet and he thought they were amazing!
Found your blog thanks to Martha’s show. Love the pops and my girlfriend and I had a blast making them! We do need to work on our dipping skills, though! I love your blog! Thanks for being a baking inspiration!
Absolutely love the pictures. I did try the vanilla wafers to make the truffles and it just didn’t work out. I think you need the creme filling. Oh Well. I did find famous amos has vanilla creme sandwich cookies so I’m going to try them. I also going to make a batch of the cupcake pops this week. Again you were great and love all your easy, quick recipes. Keep them coming.
Congrats!
You are a great inspiration to me, I’m making your cake pops right now. :)

So I am a big fan of yours. I came upon your page right before your appearance on the Martha show and was so excited to watch you on it! I must tell you I had made the “cake balls” as I have affectionately called them, and your spin on them is so perfect and easy to eat.
