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.

my valentine is my hubby! We stayed in for a romantic dinner alone – with a baby coming in July, it may be a while before we have another “quiet” Valentines! :)
I spent Valentine’s Day packing to move and baking scones and gluten free cookies for my wonderful friends who came to help. Then had dinner with my family
My honey and I laid low because we are saving all our money for a huge summer trip. It was a sweet day anyway! Hope you had a good one!
I absolutely am amazed at all your creations. I don’t know how you do it. I can’t get icing to look nice on my cake pops to save my life!
My Valentines are my twin 6 year old boys – and you Bakerella! Love you!
My valentines…well, does my entire family in general count? We decided to have it late because my mum was away til the weekend, so I’m baking cookies today!
Hi! No plans for Valentine’s Day but wearing red nail polish all month to promote heart health!
My Valentine is my sweet husband, Aaron.
I don’t have a valentine, but I spent Valentine’s Day the way I thought I would… relaxing after a day-long interview! TFS!
Well, it is past Valentine’s Day now, and my husband had to work that night… I had to work during the day. So, it really wasn’t anything special, but an iPad would make it awesome. Hopefully, we’ll get the chance to go out together next weekend when we’re both off. I like to believe that love doesn’t have to settle for holidays.
My sweet hubby of almost 10 years is my Valentine!
Ahhhh soo amazzing as always u never let us down!!!! I just started following u on Instagram love that u were in Columbus for some Jenny’s that’s where we live !!!!

For Valentines Day, I spent the day with my mom baking valentine cookies and playing games and just having a fun time celebrating our love for each other. Then later that night I had a Skype “date” with one of my dearest and closest friends who moved to another state. He definitely made my night super special! :) <3
I wish i had a valentine!!! I stayed up late watching classic movies and eating ice cream with my friends! I would LOVE the ipad mini!!!!! Thanks!

Your display is adorable. :)
Bakerella I love you! You always have such great ideas!
My boyfriend and I couldn’t celebrate on the day so we dedicated the whole weekend to each other – we’re baking together tomorrow and this looks like a great idea to try! He surprised me this morning with breakfast in bed and flowers so I have to do something to return the favour and this looks amazing.
– Liza

My loves are my 3 boys-My wonderful husband and our two sons-putting my four year old to bed Valentine’s Eve only made me love him more as he told me he was tired from all the “love” he had given. Pure sweetness!
My Valentines were my three fantastic roommates! We traded candies and hokey gifts with each other and had a great singles’ Valentine’s Day :)
Great idea, love the look.
Dear Bakerella,
Hi!
For Valentine’s Day I had a little Cinderella party for all the single girls I know, and I made white and dark chocolate “glass slippers” filled with chocolate mousse. I think you would’ve approved.

My Valentine was, well, me. (I was told to do that by a wrapper from a heart-shaped piece of Dove chocolate.)
I was very good to myself and to my actual Valentine – my dog, Leroy. A great dinner was enjoyed by both.
My darling husband of 20+ years, Allen. I love him so!
My valentine is my husband Larry, but our son came home from college on Feb. 14 to spend some time with us, so I had two Sweeties that day. Lucky me!
Helloo! I sure could use an Ipad!! :)))
We were going to celebrate our son’s 13 th bday, he was born Feb 13 th but ended up at the doctors with an acute gall bladder. It went bye bye this morning. No candy or cake pops for me.
My Valentines are my sweet husband Robbie and my two wonderful dachshunds. I made your peanut butter blossoms with milk and dark hershey kisses as a treat for my coworkers. Needless to say they were all gone within 2 hours. They love the cake pops I make so I think these mini cake pops are definitely worth a try with them.
Sam….grilled steak.
My valentine is my sweet great niece Emma!
SO ADORABLE!!! You have so much patience!!!
I didn’t have a Valentine this year…..I just did school work. :)

This is incredible! My husband and I are in awe. :) Hope you had a fabulous Valentine’s Day!
Valentine’s Day started with a Valentine party with my youngest son and his parent and me preschool class. Then my husband had to work that night so my boys and I spend Valentine’s Day evening together at home.
“table real estate?” HILARIOUS.
No official “valentine” but shared with lots of people I love :)

holaaaa!!! para el día de San Valentín hice unos red velvet cupcakes, fueron un total éxito!!! lo pasamos en familia con mis 4 hijas y mi amado esposo. muchos saluditos y me encantó tu forma de celebrar este día con tus cake pops :D
My Valentine’s day was super sweet! I made taco pie for my family in a heart shaped pan. It’s one of their favorites but it is terrible, IMO, and not very healthy so I just make it once a year. We had the BEST chocholate cake from Miette in San Francisco.. Just a thin slice for each of us – it was actually left over from my birthday on the 13th! Thanks for the chance to win. Sure would make a nice belated bday gift for me!!
My valentine was my husband, of course! We had a lovely dinner and watched a movie together with the dogs :)
Just popped in to check out your brain for green velvet… and looky, lookie…just in time to grab a little love!! My amazing hubby came home from a moto trip in Mexico and spent the early afternoon in our daughter’s classroom. made an amazing dinner for the whole family and finished with a heart shaped molten lava cakes!! YUM!
My valentine was my wife of 25 years! We had a nice dinner at home for Valentine’s day.

My valentine is my sister, my best best friend! No plans for valentine’s day because she is on the opposite end of the country– I miss you!
A lovely evening in with lots of great food for my hubby, my 4.75 kids and I: ) pure Bliss!

My valentine(s) are my Sweet Jesus and my family for now! :) and we went shopping and ate chocolate. and grilled out. was a very nice day!! :)
Oh hi! That’s a lot of mini cake pops, and a lot of comments, too! You’re super!
My valentine is my wonderful boyfriend of four years. We went to a fabulous dinner to celebrate our love for each other!
Plans were to hang out with friends, and play soccer with them.
My dear husband!
What a great idea! Got me thinking that I could do a really cute variation for my daughter’s sorority it in their greek letters. Their colors are lavender and maroon. Not sure about getting a good maroon coating but I could go a bit pinker. And then how to transport it – not a problem if I’m driving but if I’m flying . . .
Something fun to consider! Needless to say my valentines are my family.
Thanks
I spent Valentine’s with the cutest people I know, my nieces and nephew.
My favorite Valentine for 35 years is my hubby! This year we flew from California to the Midwest to spread Valentine cheer to our four grand kids! FUN!
I <3 your cake pops! My valentine brought me tulips!
My valentine is my beloved boyfriend Thomas, we had a wonderfull dinner together. You can see what I’ve made on my blog :).
Your tiny cakepops are too cute ! Love it !
My valentines were my kids, my husband and 2 rescue dogs. We had cheeseburgers and green beans. Then, I had to drive to swim team practice! Loving the minipops!!!!
my valentine was my bed since i spent that night sick and sleeping.
I spent valentine’s day with my two daughters (4 and 3) and we made cupcakes for the girls and a heart shaped coffee cake for my husband. We had a ball despite baking in the 35degree heat! :-) We had very runny icing!
I spent Valentines Day with my daughter it’s just her and I and has been for the last 7 years. We opened our gifts to one another and then watched the Valentine Monster high
I focused on the older folks in my life this year. Made secret valentines for my elderly neighbors who are living alone. Such fun to see their reactions when they open their front door and see special things sitting on their porch! :)
Unfortunately my sweetheart is in FL while I am in CA. We mailed each other cards and presents, and that’s good enough for me :)
I love your site. My Valentine and I are going to dinner with friends. All of us have been friends since kindergarten (that was about 44 years ago) so we have exchanged numerous valentines with each other.
Valentines day is for all of the loves of our life.
My Valentine is my boyfriend and his one year old puppy :) We had to study for finals. Life of a grad student.
My valentine is my husband who was very understanding when I spent the evening finding a nursing home for my dad instead of spending the evening with him.
My Valentine would be my wonderful husband of 11 years! Xoxo
My Valentine would be my wonderful husband of 11 years!! Xoxo
Hi! Our day was filled with school valentines, treats and happy smiles.
My valentine is my daughter!
I was lucky enough to have 3 valentines this year – my mom, aunt and sister. We had a great dinner out and then exchanged silly presents that we had wrapped and left under the “Valentine’s Day Tree” – a small plant that we had covered in heart decorations!!
My valentine was my dear husband! I spent the day running the bakery while he cleaned our home kitchen, so sweet.
HII!!!! My valentine and I baked cookies! they were sugar cookies and i had an amazing time!
Hi! This is super cute — I love the LOVE and XOXO ones the best!
My V-day was just spent with my loved ones (my awesome family) :)
So cute!
Hi! I made little chocolate cupcakes for my kids to share at school…and just stayed at home sice my husband was out of town.
My valentine is my hubby and my 4 awesome daughters. I love that Valentines Days has turned into a family affair…more love to give and more love to get! We always celebrate the same way, lobster tail and steak, couple veggies, and dessert.
My Valentine was my favorite dog Scouty! We just hung out at home.
My valentine is my boyfriend – our first date was actually on Valentine’s Day (because we both checked our calendars and agreed on February 14 without realizing, and then after we noticed our folly, we decided that the ONLY possible way to have a first date on Valentine’s Day was to go the the DIVIEST dive bar in town). Anyway, it worked out!
This year, we went only out for dinner, but I bought him a mead tasting and beer-making class (sensing a trend here?) so Valentines will live on until we do both!
My boyfriend SHOULD be my valentine. But long distance is a problem. So, my dad bought be chocolates instead. But THEN, I got a surprise bouquet of flowers. But I also treated myself to some heart shaped whoopie pies.
My valentine is my handsome husband, and we spent the evening at home, making enchiladas together and watching a movie!
My Valentine is my awesome husband, Roland. He cooked filet mignon, fish fry, cole slaw, and baked macaroni and cheese for our Valentine’s Day dinner. We had banana cream pie and Jeni’s brown butter almond brittle ice cream (inspired by your post) for dessert! =) Awesome display, by the way. You’re amazing, Bakerella!
My Valentines are my husband and boys. We are celebrating with dinner out Sunday night.
My valentines were my bed and two handsome men named Ben and Jerry.
Love your site! For Valentine’s Day, my boyfriend and I cooked dinner together and watched a rented movie.
I spent Valentines Day with my handsome Husband, 5 year old daughter and 2 year old son. I made puff pastry chicken, green beans with bacon, salad, french bread and a yummy dessert. Then we finished the night with little gifts for each other. It was a wonderful night!
My valentines are my family. I’ve been away at college for six weeks and haven’t seen them yet–that’s the longest we’ve ever been apart. Today (Saturday) I finally get to see my beautiful mother, my dad who’s also my best friend, and my four younger siblings. Happy valentine’s day!
My Valentine is my husband… I hosted a valentine dinner party full of fun decorations and for dessert I made red heart cake pops and your ice cream bombons…yummy!
We spent it with the family. We BBQed and had a great time. No need to go wait at a fancy restaurant to get served.
My valentine is my hubby of 18 years – met when we were 17 and been together ever since :)
I didn’t have a Valentine! WHOOOOOOH! :D
But I did spend the day with friends and had a nice dinner with my family.

My grand kids.

Well, I have to comment if there is a possibility that I could win an Ipad mini! I had a movie night with my best friend for Valentine’s day =]
Valentines day for me included staying at my university all day and all night.. These cake-pops would have come in handy ;-)
My wonderful Fiance! We had to delay our Valentines day plans to accommodate work schedules, but we’ll have a nice quiet dinner at home and cuddle up with netflix this weekend.
That would be my amazing husband! This was our first “married” V-Day, and he did very well! :D
I have to say my Valentine’s (don’t just have one) would be my kids and Husband of 16 years. We stayed in and decorated cookies.
My husband is my Valentine and has been for over 20 years. We were traveling the week before and just arrived back on the 13th, so we didn’t want to do too much by he cooked us filet Mignon with pan-fried mushrooms and onions, and potato pancakes for dinner.
Mini cake pops! How precious!
I spent Valentine’s day with my boyfriend. We made dinner at home, and I surprised him with homemade spicy dark chocolate truffles. Nomnomnom! Then we saw a movie. Simple and lovely!
Didn’t do much on V-day, but I did make some cookies and brought them in to work!
My Valentine is my boyfriend, Fergus. We went out for a great dinner together and then watched some of our favourite shows while eating heart shaped sugar cookies we made together! Little by little he bakes more with me! It’s more fun than doing it alone.
Happy Valentine’s Day! My valentine would be that iPad.
OMG! Serious cute attack! I love this! I love your website.
Dear bakerella.com, Will you be my valentine? Hehe i’m talking to a website!
My Valentine’s plans consisted of homemade butternut squash soup, honey mustard chicken, and friends gathered around to chat, laugh, and watch “Parks & Recreation.”
So cute!
The hubby has been my valentine for the past 15 years. So lucky :)
Hi! Cute project idea!
I prepped our pup to work his first day as a therapy dog for our students. He brought so much love and joy to their day.
Thank you for the opportunity to win :)
Happy Valentines Day!
I spent the day with my students, surprising them with valentines & a party! Later on that night I had dinner with my girlfriends and babysat my god-daughter so her parents could have a night out! A very busy yet fun day filled with love!!!

This year my valentine was my cat, Bootsie. I had dinner with my daughter and her family and then Bootsie Boy and I went up stairs to watch our favorite show…The Waltons.

My valentines are my three kids and my husband. We had a nice dinner at home and then the boys were off to wrestling practice. My daughter and I had fun looking at her valentines from preschool…so adorable!

My hubby will be leaving for a little over a year so this will be our last Valentine’s Day together until 2015. :-( We have made arrangements for a romantic couple’s massage and bubble bath at a local spa. I can’t wait!
I’m my own Valentine this year. So Indian food takeout and Big Bang Theory were my big plans :)
