I made mini and many cake pops for you this past weekend. I had this idea I wanted to try just using basic round pops and color to make a sweet little display. So I set out to dip enough cake pops to get the job done. That turned out to be 350 plus. Yikes. Not quite sure what I was thinking … Around number 70, I was really starting to reconsider. I thought … oh my gosh I have to make five times that many. But when I start something I can’t let it go until I get to the end and see how it works out. I know this project doesn’t help you much for this year, but I thought the heart display could totally work for a lot of other things besides Valentine’s Day.
So keep reading below for the how to… or check out my big “mini” giveaway at the end of this post. It’s a mini way for me to say Happy Valentine’s Day!
Okay, here we go.
You can’t tell in the picture, but these cake pops are tiny. Like Cake Dots instead of pops. So tiny that you use a toothpick to dip them with instead of a lollipop stick. Yes a toothpick. The cake balls are actually about the size of a penny. But they are small for a reason.
- Regular size cake pops would take up a lot of table real estate.
- The lollipop sticks would be much taller and people would have a harder time viewing the design from above.
- I figured the proportions out so they would work on a pretty standard size piece of styrofoam to make it easier to recreate and transport.
- I only had to make one cake. Score.
- Mini is major cute.
I based the display design off of a template (see below) I made so that it works with a 12X18 inch or 12X20 inch sheet of styrofoam you can find in craft stores. Then I worked backwards to figure out how many cake pops you’d need to make the the shape look right. Once I had that, I knew how big to make the cake pops. Or how little.
- Crumble cake and mix with frosting
- Roll into tiny cake balls. (basic cake pop instructions here) You can use the circles on the downloadable template as a guide for the right size. They should be slightly smaller than the circle so that when you add the coating they will still fit together nicely.
- Keep rolling and rolling until you have enough
- Dip a toothpick into melted coating and then insert into a chilled cake ball.
- Dip entire cake pop into the coating and then sprinkle with non-pareils. They are tiny and will be the best size for these tiny treats.
- Place in styrofoam to dry.
A couple of things to note.
- Use a small plastic bowl to melt the coating. You can work with a smaller amount of coating when dipping. Just melt the coating in batches as you go. Then you can take breaks and watch the Walking Dead marathon on AMC in between.
- Buy more than one sheet of styrofoam. You’ll need more room than the display size so they aren’t touching each other as they dry.
- Invite a friend over to help you. It will go faster and maybe your neck won’t hurt like mine does right now from looking down and dipping for so long.
- I’d try Mercken’s candy coating for this project. It melts nice and fluid – you don’t want thick coating on these. It will add too much volume.
- I’ve probably discouraged you already. Kind of like I felt as I was starting making these. But I had a feeling they’d be cute when I finished so I went on… like I’m going to do now. And by the way, these completely make me giddy when I see them finished on the table (looking at them now), so I guess it was worth it. And it will definitely be worth it if one of you decides to try it out some day. Hope you do… with a friend.
Use multi-color non-pareils for the second candy coating color. Minus the static.
Super cute.
When all the pops are done, prepare your display.
- Wrap a 12X18 inch or 12X20 inch sheet of styrofoam with paper. I used the 19X25 inch single sheets you purchase at the craft store. You could also use wrapping paper though.
- Packing tape worked best on the styrofoam to tape the paper down.
- Print out the template provided centered on an 11X17 sheet of paper at somewhere like Kinko’s. The design is created for a 12X18 surface area but it is set up on 11X17 paper since that is a standard size to print. You’ll notice that some of the circles on the template are getting cropped off when they print, but that’s okay, you’ll have enough information to figure out where the pops on the perimeter should go. I hope that makes sense.
- Tape the template down temporarily and use a safety pin to poke holes into the paper.
- Remove the template and start arranging the cake pops using the template as a guide. Start in the middle and work your way out from the center. More than likely some of your pops will be bigger than you think and if you start at one end, left to right, they will start to tilt too much to make room as you place them in position. But if you start in the center, they will angle out equally all the way around. Again I hope that makes sense.
Full of heart.
But you can also rearrange them for a different look …
And spread a little love…
… Or some sweet hugs and kisses.
Here are the 11X17 inch templates for each.
And because I love you guys and all things mini, here’s a little giveaway for you.

Happy Valentines Day!
My amazing hubby and my wonderful lil doggy girl were my valentines. =) Had a nice home cooked meal (cooked by my hubby). So lucky to have both of them. =))
I didn’t see this until after Valentine’s Day. What a cute idea. No way I would have the patience to finish it all though.
My 1.5 year old beagle/basset hound mix named Charlie is my Valentine this year :)
Hubby of 22 years! We also had cheerleading and basketball practice last night for the kiddos!
Hi! ;) Absolutely love the minis!
My husband and I had a very sub-par dinner that equalled about 4 bites…and paid a fortune for it! Luckily we made some yummy chocolate covered strawberries when we got home to save the day.
My Valentine is my awesome husband. We spent the evening at home with our two kids. He did make me a yummy dinner and sent me flowers at work.
I have two valentines…my wonderful husband and my sweet little girl.
My Valentines are my wonderful hubby and our 3 adorable kids. Our Valentines day plans started with me taking 200 cake pops I had made to our kids’ school and ended with family fondue night. What a blast! Your idea is absolutely amazing, by the way! You are so creative!!
I went over to my boyfriends house and he surprised me with a romantic dinner and some roses How Sweet!!
My valentine(s) this year were my fellow single girlfriends! We have to stick together! XO
I hung out with my closest friends and had a blast!!
I just stayed at home haha
My husband took me out and surprised me with a diamond ring it was the best valentines!!!
Very cute! I made that many regular sized cake pops once. It was a lot… :)
We just stayed home and hung out it was a nice and relaxing day. :)
adorable!!
My valentines were my partner and our dog – we beat the system by going to shake shack for burgers and fries, and then cuddling on the couch with ice cream pints afterwards. :)
My valentine was, and still is (fortunately ;) ), my boyfriend. It was our second Valentine’s Day together. I still can’t wrap my head around how we got here… We lived fairly close to each other and had several friends in common for years before even meeting. Years! In order to meet, we basically had to fly to another corner of the world (well, another corner of europe at least, but still). And here we are (or rather were yesterday), celebrating Valentine’s Day in OUR apartment. Our home. I feel a bit cheesy for saying it, but it just felt so special. And it didn’t hurt that he managed to cook the meat just the way I want it ;)
Also – I can’t believe you made all of those! Your fingers/brain/rest of you must’ve ached like crazy!
Well I had no valentine this year but I had a good time hanging out with my friends!
My Valentine is my wonderful husband and our 3 adorable kids. Our Valentine plans started with me making 200 cake pops for our kids’ school and ended with family fondue night!

My Valentine happens to be my best friend! She is so kind, funny, and beautiful! Our plans for Valentine’s day were just to go to a party!
I went to the gym. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!!

My Valentines are a handful of girls at a teen mom’s support group. We meet every Thursday and this year Valentines Day is on a Thursday so we planned a party. We let the girls and their children decorate cookies together. I loved watching 1 and 2 year olds dump mountains of frosting and sprinkles on a tiny heart cookie. It was precious!
I worked a double shift waiting tables on Valentine’s Day, so no celebrating for me!
My hubby of 14 years was my Valentine, although he boycotts the holiday. He did get me some conversation hearts and a beautiful card. My kids and pups are also my Valentines, the other absolute loves of my life.
I spent the day with my 10 year old son at an Environmental Learning Program at Sutter’s Fort in Sacramento dressed up as a member of the 1846 Sutter Army! We lived a day in the life and had a blast! My son spent his classroom earned “Sutter-Bucks” at the trade store and bought me a pickle :) Best Valentine’s pickle I’ve ever had.

My hubby has been my valentine for over 25 years :)
My wife was my valentine!

Hello bakerella, thanks for having a giveaway!
My husband and I celebrated our first Valentines together shopping at Ikea! $200 and six hours later, we had a nice dinner at home :)
Our valentine’s plans included dinner with our besties and all our kids! So nice to not only have romantic love but to also share the day with our friends and their kids, whom we love very much!
Valentines’s day was a very quiet day at my house. Hubby was at his bowling league, so me and the dog watched TV. That is what happens after 42 years of marriage! However, it was a I love you and here are chocolates day!
My valentines are my husband, our 11 and 12 year old sons and our 18 month old princess!!
I spent my Valentine’s Day with the love of my life…a giant bowl of pasta and bolognese sauce. Men, Schmen ;)
My valentine is my boyfriend of 3 years. We are now in a long distance relationship so i spent my valentines eating candy sent via mail with my boyfriend via Skype. we both bought strawberries and chocolate and ate strawberry dipped chocolate while watching the Game of Thrones. Yupp, we spent valentines day watching some gnarly decapitations, but thats us and i wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Oh yeah, i also made some cake pops and brownie pops and sent it over to my boyfriend. He’s not much of a sweet person, but he enjoyed them.
My husband Mike is my Valentine, It was a great day with lunch and shopping.
My Valentine is my husband… and our plans? Chinese take out and wine – yum!
Hi, those little cake dots are super cute! My best friend was my valentine :)
That is so cute!
Love the minis idea! Unfortunately, I had the flu so I spent all day in bed. I did get a beautiful bouquet of roses from my husband though.
My Valentine was my dog! Because he will stay with me till the end of his life! And because I still don’t have a boyfriend.
My wife and I warmed up dinner and stayed home for Valentine’s day but we will go out and celebrate when it is not so crowded!
We are spending the evening together with the family, as always, and we never regret it! By the way, your mini cupcakes are awesome!
my mom <3
My fiance and I cooked a fun meal in and chatted all night. It’s our favorite way to spend Valentine’s Day!
Hubby, our 2 daughters and I went to our fave Mexican restaurant and had some great laughs while eating our fave food. It was a great night!
My Valentines are my husband and our sweet little 7 year old daughter. We picked up a quick bite to eat last night, then had a quiet, lovely night in, exchanging a few gifts while snuggled up on the couch. <3
I don’t have a valentine – single and happy! :D
Made a wonderful Thai dinner at home and enjoyed with my kids
My valentine is my husband, Bill. We had wonderful intentions of spending it eating a nice dinner but my 15 yo son broke his arm at basketball practice so we spent it in the ER instead :)

These are seriously so cute! I didn’t have a valentine and I had to work, but I made myself a delicious dinner, which I ate by candlelight, and got myself some chocolate! It was wonderful :)
My Valentine is my Fiance’. We have been together almost 3 years and never been able to spend Valentine’s Day together, because of our long-distance relationship. This year he made a way, and we were able to spend the whole afternoon together!
My valentines are my niece and nephew! They have my heart since the day they were born. I love them so much. They live a couple hours away and so I sent them each a V-Card in the mail. They get so excited when they get mail :-)
My Valentine was my son Lucas. He makes every day just a little bit sweeter. :)
Wow, Bakerella! I cannot believe you did all that by yourself. And yet….I am very tempted to try it myself. Hmm!
Oh, and my hubs was/is/always will be my Valentine! <3
We spent the evening at home together with our two teenagers and felt pretty lucky that they still think it’s kind of fun to just hang out with us! Of COURSE, I baked – “Black Hole Brownies” – super dark chocolate, always a pleaser. Baked a pan the night before for a Valentine’s potluck at work, so I couldn’t leave my family without any!
I don’t have a valentine, but I ate lots of chocolate :)
My valentine was my boyfriend Justin! He made me dinner and some amazing chocolate covered strawberries! It was a great night!
My valentine is my hubster. He recently came back from a deployment, so we will just be enjoying the fact that he is home to celebrate with me and our children!
My partner of six-and-a-half years is my valentine, although we don’t do much in the way of ‘tradition’; no flowers, no cards, no dates, nothing fancy and saccharine. We’d planned to go see the new Die Hard film on the evening of the 14th but unfortunately I had to work (I’m a theatre tech) so instead we’re having a night in tonight (15th) with cake and pyjamas. Heaven!
It would be great to win an iPad mini; such a nifty little thing! :)
My valentines was my 3 yr old son and husband!
My valentine’s were my family this year. Two boys and my hubby. We spent the night at home with good dinner and a family game night.
My Valentine was my boyfriend who surprised me with a bottle of wine and a beautiful filet mignon dinner (that he cooked totally by himself!) It was suuuuper sweet…and delicious!
My hubby is my valentine and this year we made a box of pre-arranged and pre-paid dates to be opened once a month for 12 months! I can’t wait to see what he has planned and I am looking forward to sharing mine with him. Nothing could be better then a guaranteed date night/day with my beloved :)
Love your blog! My husband and my son tie for favorite valentine.
My valentines are my kids. The youngest is now 18 but they are still a riot to be around. Tonight my five sons will be here and I’ll be giving them the heart cookies we made the other day. Pure joy! I love this post, btw. So many cake pops would definitely be a hit for a crowd. I’ll have to try this next Valentine’s Day!
My husband and kids were my valentines yesterday. My husband and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary and took out kids out to our favorite pizza restaurant. It was a perfect day!
My Valentine Kit was working but I did get in some great cuddle time with my son.
My baby boy turned six months old on Valentines Day. I gave him lots of love and snuggles.
My valentine is my wonderful boyfriend, my first love!
My pups are my valen-Weims!
<3
Had to work, but am going on a doubledate Sat night with my husband's god daughter and her boyfriend!
I was lucky to have 3 Valentines- My husband and 2 daughters (age 2 and 6). We all enjoyed a family dinner together!
Happy belated Valentine’s day! My valentines are my loving husband and wonderful two kids :)
My Valentine’s Day plans were supposed to be spending the evening with my boyfriend. We were going to make the same meal we had on our first date together, Shrimp and Garlic Sauce, (yum!) and then play Mario Kart and watch movies. But his work schedule changed, so I spent my night cleaning my room and separating out stuff to throw away and to donate. Maybe I’ll get to see him tonight!
I spent Valentine’s Day with my friends and family. I hope you had a great day too!
Hi! My boyfriend is my valentine this year – I made dinner and we watched a little Walking Dead.
My hubby and I went to Ruth’s Chris for dinner last night. Surprisingly, not too crowded which was nice. :)
Your cake pops – big or small….make me smile. My Valentine’s Day was spent with my 4 special valentines – my wonderful husband and 3 kiddos – my special blessings.
Wow great idea, I love it.
My valentine is my son. I helped at his classroom party, then we had dinner and watched a movie together.
My valentine was my boyfriend my love and my motivation. He lives in San Francisco and I live in tracy so i made him some brownies and peanutbutter cookies as well as some cupcakes all decorated with hearts and “I LOVE YOU” some balloons and a card i got a bit carried away with and made and essay lol. We went out to dinner, and later on he went back home. It was a wonderful valentines day! One of a kind!!!
My Valentine is my husband, of course, and always. He wasn’t home yesterday to celebrate Valentine’s Day so we’re going to celebrate tonight at dinner in the National Harbor! Yay!
My husband! We ate a homemade “fancy” dinner with our kids.
My little boy is sick with his first ear infection, and spent yesterday, last night, and today in my arms. So he’s my valentine this year. I’d give the iPad to my hubby to make up for it =)
Making chocolate cupcakes with a caramel filling and caramel cream cheese icing for my fellow employees that have to work valentine’s evening.
the hubby and my kids are my valentines!
As always, love your ideas!
Spent the day with my kiddos at their schools. Dinner with the family and then comforted my daughter as she came down with a fever. :(
My husband was my Valentine, and since he wasn’t in town, we couldn’t make any plans. But he made it back before the day ended, with a surprise gift – the most gorgeous dress I now own – which I know he spent ages looking for!
My husband spent yesterday taking care of me and a terrible cough I’ve managed to catch…he is definitely the best Valentine ever. Thanks so much for the chance to win!
My Valentine was one of my closest friend. I sent her a text message photo of a toast and a crinkle since we currently live in different cities because of school. I didn’t have much a plan yesterday other than go to class, so I just met up with a cousin of mine afterward. However, we plan on making some red velvet truffles later!
We had a quiet valentines day at home. We share a heart shaped pizza and watched Downton Abbey. Thanks for the great giveaway!
My hubs and two beautiful babies (or not so babies, these days!)
My Valentines were my hubby, daughter and son. A night of pizza, wine and goodies was awesome.
My husband and my girls were my valentines! We had a great evening at home.
Happy Valentine’s Day! My kids are my Valentine’s.
So, so cute Bakerella! I don’t know where you get the patience, but we all benefit from it. Happy Valentine’s!
My husband took me to a sushi dinner!!
My valentine is my lovely hubby. We are going away for a long weekend with several friends of ours.
I spent the night at the theatre!
My boyfriend of 2 years was my valentine yesterday. We watched, “A Good Day to Die,” and went to a nice Korean restaurant. We ordered so much food that filled the whole table! What made it special was being together since we’re in a long distance relationship.
Hi!
I love these mini cake pops!
My valentine was my best friend. We celebrated by dressing up and having dinner together, it was lovely.
My valentine is my awesome and wonderful husband! I gave up sweets for Lent….but will definitely have to make these mini’s when the season is over :)
My valentine is my husband of 5 years and our 16-month-old baby girl! We actually spent it celebrating my father-in-law’s birthday. It was a great day of love! :)
Oh my!!! That is one beautiful display but I definitely wouldn’t have the patience to dip that many cake balls! You are amazing!! My valentine this year (and every year) was my handsome husband, Brian. He is currently in medical school so I made him a yummy dinner of butternut squash penne pasta and salad with strawberry hearts! For dessert I made a peanut butter pie that tastes like a giant Reese’s piece (his favorite candy!) After dinner we watched a movie and drank champagne. I thought the movie Valentine’s Day was fitting! :) If I happen to win this iPad mini it’ll be a perfect gift for him! He’s been wanting one!
out to dinner with my husband.
Hi!
I spent Valentine’s with ny husband and 2 kids. We made breakfast for dinner and watched Rango.
My Valentine’s plans are pizza and a salad – with some chocolate for dessert!!!!!!!!! Maybe even chocolate cake pops! Yummy!
Have a blessed day!!!!!
I got to spend the day with my Grandblessings. My Grandson’s preschool Valentine’s Day in the a.m. and My Grandaughter’s party in the p.m. Had lunch with my boys (My Honey and my Grandson). It was the perfect day that anyone could have asked for. ( I even made & gave away cake pops to all of my co-workers the day before (45 of them) because I had the day off for Valentine’s Day)
My valentine is Keith and we went out for a nice dinner :)
My Valentines were my husband of 5 years and my one year old little guy. We had Thai food take-out for dinner followed by chocolate covered strawberries (for mommy and daddy) and plain raisins (for the kiddo) for dessert.
My valentine is my husband! We will be celebrating our 7th Anniversary soon! It’s gone by so fast!
My valentine is my fantastic husband! I made a yummy dinner and had fruit and chocolate fondue for dessert.
My Valentine was my husband and we spent the whole day together – no kids tagged along. It was rare, wonderful & tons of fun. We went to lunch (Valentine’s dinner is nuts), did some wandering around a new town and then went home and just relaxed for the afternoon – put some old movie on the TV and just sat. It’s something we never get to do alone let alone together and it was wonderful!!!!
My mom & dad were my Valentines this year. So thoughtful the two of them :o)
We didn’t do anything at all as I spent hours (yes hours) at the tile store. My sweetie is so understanding! Even better, he is picking the tile up for me today.
My Valentine’s are my hubby and kids. In the middle of a busy week full of birthdays and basketball playoffs, Valentine’s Day was our only free night, so we ordered a pizza and spent the evening at home together.
My hubby Scott… :o)
so cuteee!! my valentines was like other day, what matters is always love, not just one day!
Thanks!! :)

My Valentines were my hubby and my 3 boys. We didn’t have any special plans yesterday, just hung out with each other. We gave the boys chocolate mustaches and loved watching them run around with them plastered to their faces!

Mark was my Valentine. He cooked me a wonderful dinner.
I have a new Valentine this year…his name is Marty (and he’s absolutely amazing). We can’t see each other during the week (since we both work and both have kids), so I just surprised him by leaving a crockpot of lasagna for him and gifts for he and the kiddos. :) The weekend brings time for us to spend together, and I’m very much looking forward to it.
Thanks!
-Erica R
My Valentines are my husband and 2 wild, but wonderful kids! We just enjoyed a special dinner full valentines fun! I made Spinach lasagna roll ups and heart shaped steamed carrots and heart shaped strawberries on the side. For dessert I made a chocolate pound cake with a hidden vanilla heart inside. My kids loved all the valentine suprises!!
Thank you so much for sharing your super cute Valentines display with all of us!
I hung out with the bf and a couple of girlfriends yesterday at King’s.
My valentine was my sister and we baked cookies that looked like sweetheart candies.
My hubby ????
No special plans, but we spent time together.
I didn’t have a valentine :(
but i did some baking for my sisters. Made two giant cookies, one shortbread and the other was chocolate chip with m&m’s!
You are so creative and inventive and your valentine post is over the top, but I say that about all your posts. I love.your blog!
I went solo for this Valentine’s Day. Shared treats with my coworkers, then settled on the couch for the night with some good beer and a good book. I should have been in the kitchen making these adorable cake pops instead!
my valentine’s are my son and daughter, and i guess my husband too! not doing too much, just a nice dinner with a treat after.
My valentines are my sweet husband and son! After eating dinner at home we went and got ice cream at Bruester’s, yum! It served double purpose of Valentine’s Day and it was the dog’s birthday so she got a special treat too! And it was BOGO waffle cones so it was a total win!!!
my valentine is my wonderful sweet husband! we are staying in and ordering chinese food and watching casablanca for our love day! :)
My valentines are my husband of almost 10 years and my father. We stayed home and watched a movie.
My Valentines ere my kids, Matteo and Olivia! We went out to eat dinner and came back home to play
Happy Hearts! Enjoyed a moonlight snowshoeing adventure with favorite outdoorsman. Love the mini CBs but wonder if I would run out of patience rolling out 300. They look beautiful and way too tempting to eat! Thanks for another great idea.
