Sesame Street. Pop Party. This Tuesday, November 10th is the 40th Anniversary of Sesame Street. Can you believe it. 40 years and the muppet mania continues. I’ve received no less than 1,299,347 requests for Elmo Cake Pops since I started turning my pops into characters more than a year ago. Okay, I’m exaggerating a little on the number. But seriously … Elmo has been one of the most requested pops. So I decided to finally put what’s been in my head on a lollipop stick.
And it didn’t hurt that just last week I found the perfect candy for Elmo’s ping-pong-like-eyes. Actually … all of their eyes.
Solid white. Perfectly round. Perfect size. And perfect. I found them at Wal-Mart. They were in the card and party supply aisle – not in the candy aisle. I stumbled on them and grabbed a bunch of bags and in different colors, too. It never fails.… As soon as I find something I like, it will be discontinued the next time I look for it.
But don’t worry. You can also use white m&m’s, white chocolate coated espresso beans or any other similar white candy you might be lucky enough to stumble on.
To make your own Sesame Street Cake pops, follow the basic cake pop instructions and use the following tips to decorate.
Elmo’s noses are simply orange jelly beans. Elmo’s mouth is made of candy melts cut in half, and his eyes are drawn on with an edible ink pen.
To decorate all of these characters, dip them in colored candy coating first.
While the coating is wet, attach the mouth and eyes and let dry. When the attachments are dry, you can use a toothpick to drizzle on more coating.
Let me stop here and tell you. This is time consuming. I wanted them all to have the effect of a furry coat, but you can certainly try another method to speed things up. For instance, they can just be smooth and you can pipe the mouths on with black candy writers or draw them on with an edible ink pen.
But I took the long way, since this was a special occasion. You’ll need to drizzle, dab, and dot all over the cake pop. Or at least all over the front of the pop. I won’t tell. Make sure to layer the coating around the mouth. You’ll need to build up a base around the edges to make it look more realistic and less stuck on.
Use the same technique for Cookie Monster. His mouth is bigger than Elmo’s so I tried to shape a lip this time with the candy melts.
Oscar. Let’s talk about Oscar. After I made the first two characters, I wasn’t completely happy with the mouths, so I tried a different technique with the Grouch and I think he liked it. Instead of one candy melt attached to the front, cut the candy melt in half and use both pieces to form an open mouth. This is a little harder because you have to re-shape the cake balls to somewhat in a C-shape (if you were to look at it from the side). This is so the mouth has somewhere to sit. If you try to make the mouth on the outside of the round ball, it won’t look right. Hope that makes sense. Don’t forget to build up the green around the mouth so it looks seamless. Again… these were some work.
Also, Oscar’s eyes are different than the others. His are inset instead of sitting on top of the pop. To achieve the look, cut the candy pieces in half and attach them. When dry, use a brown candy writer or chocolate candy coating and pipe on eyebrows. His tongue is a red jumbo heart sprinkle with the point cut and rounded off.
Here are the candy melts and how you can cut them for each character.
If you can’t find dark chocolate melts, then chocolate coins might work. You’ll have to experiment with the sizes though.
I almost used these, but I stuck with the candy melts because I didn’t have enough coins.
Now for Big Bird. I love Big Bird.
I gotta tell you, when I started making these, I had no idea how I would pull this big guy off. First, I thought yellow sugar pearls or mini yellow m&ms, but none of those looked right for his feathers. So I used sanding sugar sprinkled on top after drizzling to make him look fluffier. His eyelids are decorated with a pink and a blue edible ink pen. His beak is candy corn with the end cut off to make it easier to attach.
Dip the candy corn in yellow candy melts. But only if the candy coating is thin and fluid like this. By the way, this coating is Merckens and has nothing added to make it this thin. It was heated in the microwave on med-low in 30 second intervals and stirred in between. But if your coating is too thick, you can add some paramount crystals, shortening or vegetable oil to help thin it out. And if it’s not thin, then don’t try to dip the candy corn because it will just be a big glob and not pretty on Big Bird.
Here are a few beaks. Let them dry on wax paper. Or just skip all that and give Big Bird an uncoated orange candy corn beak.
(Anybody tired yet? It’s almost too much to even read about doing. I think I need a nap.)
Below, you can see what I mean with the different mouth variations.
Aren’t they just the cutest. But something is missing. Cookie Monster is smiling, but he’s not happy. He needs cookies.
Yes. Cookies. Coooooookies!
Tiny… little … itty-bitty chocolate chip…
There… much better!
Stop it. I can’t stand it. Head exploding. Cute overload.
Here’s some of the supplies you’ll need:
Colored candy melts
Red Candy Melts
Green candy melts
Yellow candy melts
Dark Chocolate candy melts
Dark brown candy writerParamount Crystals
Edible Ink Pens
Jumbo red heart sprinkles
Yellow sanding sugar
Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies (Gripz by Keebler)
White round candies for eyes
Orange jelly beans
Candy Corn
Toothpicks
Basic Cake Pop Instructions
Here you go. This is for everyone that likes it when I bite into one of these. Poor little Cookie Monster.
Now, a lot of you have sent in photos of your own Elmo Pops. I just haven’t done a great job of keeping track of them all. If you’d like to re-send, maybe I can do a little slideshow or something to show them off. Or any other Sesame Street ones you may have done.
November 10th, 2009.
40 Years of Sesame Street and one happy day.
Kisses to you, Jim Henson.
Wish you were still with us.
These are great! You are so creative! I want one! LOL!
Your blog is fabulous and I have looked at these Sesame Street pops no less than ten times this week. LOL. My question is how far in advance can you make these pops before serving them and whats the best way to store them? Thanks for the the inspiration Bakerella.
Incredible. Enough said. My baby’s first birthday is Saturday and I wish I had the time/ambition to try them. We’re having a Sesame Street party so it would be so perfect. Love, love, love them!
I love them, love them, love them…
YOU ARE THE BEST.
I adore these! You never cease to amaze me! So cute!!!
Love, love, loved these! I also just opened my December Better Homes & Gardens and saw the blurb about you and your site! I was very excited I had discovered you on my own before the millions of other people who will now be followers. Congrats!
both my girls laughed out loud–and then declared they were brilliant!
THANK YOU! These are quite possibly the most wonderful things I’ve ever seen! I LOVE cake balls and cake pops since finding them on your site. I am always amazed at your hard work. They’re so tedious! And these look SO tedious. But they have to be the most adorable things ever.
Again, thank you! My boys and I will have to make these one day!
What a great idea! I am amazed at your talent!
These are sooooo great! I love how creative you are! Amazing!!
I’ve really fallen in love with your site! It has become a weekly treat! This idea is so cute!
These are terrific! I can’t stop smiling thinking about them. At 40, Sesame Street captures the imagination of kids – young and old. Thank you for sharing this charming idea.
Cheers,
Steve

I’m just saying-You are the QUEEN! I would love to see Ernie and Bert…of course Ernie would need his rubber ducky and Bert, his pigeon Berniece.
Genious! And btw: CakeWrecks just left a very “Tweet” post about you on their Twitter. No biggie; not like they have 1,000,000 + followers, or anything! lol :) Congrats! Adorable!

I’m so sad they took Sesame Street off UK TV 10 years ago- it’s the best. Cookie Monster was always my favourite. I could just identify with him…wonder why??!?!?!
I have no words. You never fail to deliver the most perfect, creative ideas and photos. You are amazing at what you do! Loving your work always!
those are too flipping cute! I *think* I love you Bakerella! You always cease to amaze me at how darn creative you are :) Love them!!!!!!!

I LOVE these cake pops just like I love Sesame St.! Thanks for making them! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SESAME ST!
This is soo cute! Cookie Monster is my favorite!!!
Oh… my… God! This couldn’t have come at a better time! It is my daughter’s first birthday next month and I had decided on a sesame street theme! These are definitely a MUST.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
You are amazing! I jump on about once a month to see what youve donw (hopefully inspiring me to try it too) and once again you have totally WOWed me with the attention to detail you put into the Seasame Street Bunch! You make me smile!
You never cease to amaze me!
Oh my goodness. You’re crazy and I love it! So cute!!!
adorable! I received my December Better Homes and Gardens and was pleased to see alittle article about you!
My daughter MUST have these for her 3rd birthday party…except her favorite is GROVER!!! Help Bakerella! She loves him TOO much! How do I make HIM?
GIRL! YOU ARE SOOOOOO OVER (that means better than good). I LOVE THESE!!!!! Thank you so much for sharing all your hard work and creativity.
You amaze me every week. Cute overload indeed.
They’re sooooo cute. I wanna go make them this weekend with my daughter! Do you have ideas for Zoe and Abby Cadabby?
AMAZING. My daughter LOVES Elmo (privately since now she is 6) — but I might have to try these for her birthday… if she let’s me… way cute. Perfect ideas for the eyes, mouthes, etc.
Wow! These make me ready to skip ahead to March and my son’s second birthday party! (: GREAT job!!!
These are incredible. Simply amazing!
It’s so beautiful! I love these sweets!
Good Lord! You’re ridiculously unbelievable! Those are AMAZING! Where do you find the time and patience?
You truly are the BEST! I cannot wait to make these for my son’s 2nd birthday. He loves all of the Sesame Street crew! Thank you for sharing your awesome gifts with us!
you are just too much!! i love this! especially the half eaten cookie monster..haha. ;)
AHHHH! These are adorable!! You did SUCH a great job!!
does the veggie oil work better to thin out the candy melts than shortening??? (my first pops were a disaster haha, wouldn’t even stay on the stick!)
Thank you for sharing your creation. I’m gonna make thaws for my bf. He will definitely love them, especially the cookie monster!
You never cease to amaze me! Your patience brings stunning results! I have made cake poops twice now and although the second time I did much better, mine never look even half as good as yours! And you are so creative! Kudos to you!
I am DYING over these. My daughter would go bonkers for the Elmo character. She can’t get enough of Elmo. It’s one of only a few words that she walks around the house chanting. DYING!!
There isn’t anything more I can add that hasn’t already been said 6 pages over. So I’ll just say it again – they are too adorable for words. I love your site! You never cease to amaze and inspire!
wow, these are just beautiful! love you <3
These are stunning! Well done. I think these might be some of your best work yet! Love the ideas! You are so talented.
I LOVE THESE GUYS!!
You are so fabulous with your inventions! Congratulations on being awesome!! :)
I wish we could get all the Candies you use in Australia! I am coming to the USA next year for my honeymoon (I should be saying WE are coming for OUR honeymoon.. I’ll bring my man cos he’ll have extra luggage space) so I plan on stocking up on all the fabulous candies you use so I can try making these when I get home!!
Love your work :)
This makes me so incredibly happy. This week has been a plethora of happy-making via all the Sesame Street celebrating, and these pops are just icing on the cake. =D
Wow! I am so impressed! You are one talented woman, and a perfectionist too! I can’t believe you added all of that ‘painstaking’ texture to them too! You’re awesome!
You never cease to amaze me! I’m not really terribly amazed or dazzled by very much these days…and as a pastry chef and professional cake sculptor, it takes a lot of creativity and talent to totally WOW me. But, YOU….YOU do it every time! You always hit the nail on the head with the perfect look, style, and finesse! And it’s really wonderful the way you share your talent and your ideas so generously with others.
all I can say is..HOW ARE YOU SO GOOD?! It’s just mind-boggling I tell ya!
FANTABULOUSO!!!!!!! TOO cute for words. Those made my heart happy. Thank you!
OMG these are amazing – You rock and your ideas even Rock more. Something tells me if I tried these they would not look as good. Keep up the amazing work.
Jen – Look up the Smiley Face Cake Pops
Beth, Carolyn J, and tracey – Yeah, but no coconut for me… yuck.
Melanie L. – they are gripz by Keebler and super tiny
Wish Trish – Actually that is pretty funny
Kristin – That, too … kinda ironic.
flamingogrl I love candy sixlets by Galerie
Katie – thank you
Karisa – put the sticks in right before you dip. the balls should be firm – not frozen. Dip the tip of the stick in some coating and insert into the ball. Then dip and remove the cake ball in the coating in one motion. Don’t swirl it around. If the coating is too thick, you can thin it out with vegetable oil
Taryn – Americolor Brand – use a light touch – like you are painting with them.
Lnae – you can trim off the edges first
K – did you look near the party supplies?
Hannah – you’ll have to wait and see :)
Louise Basgall – fluid, thin, pourable
Definite cuteness overload, I was going to scream especially after those mini mini cookies in cookie monsters mouth. You’re too much, really outdone yourself this time :)
karen
OK – these are by far the most cutest, most adorable, SO VERY AWESOME cake pops you have ever done. I have to say, I am not this talented…plus my cake pops fall apart, and I have tried all your tips – I guess it’s just not in the stars for me to make cake pops. OH my goodness – love these!
I do have a question for you. My little girl is turning one in a month and her birthday party is ladybug themed. But instead of a red and black ladybug, it’s a pink ladybug with chocolate brown dots, could you make me some cake pops like this??? Is that even possible??? How much would these be? <3 ya bakerella!
Oh wow, these are absolutely awesome! I especially love the Cookie Monster one :-)
i seriously love these so much.
I love Big Bird. These are great.
LOVE IT! OMG SO CUTE!!!
Wow! Really great job! They really are excellent representations of the originals!
How do you find the patience to do these?? They are ADORABLE. I tried making bunnies at Easter and my head almost exploded after one little uncreative batch.
So cute.
My mouth LITERALLY dropped open when I visited your site today! Those Sesame character pops are WONDERFUL!
You never cease to impress. I especially liked the photos of your sketches. It was like glimpsing into a “behind the scenes” look at Bakerella’s genuis.
Thanks for being so generous and sharing your creations with us. Can’t wait to try my hand at Cookie Monster. :)
That was ridiculously cute & genius :)
WOOOOW !! I have been fan of your AMAZING baking ideas for a while, but I never left a comment before..
This time I CAN NOT resist !! THEY ARE REALLY REALLY AWESOME :D
thanks for sharing ..
WOW! Super impressed. Everyone thinks I’m crafty, but they obviously haven’t seen what you can do! (I guess I need to show them!)
You’re brilliant!
these are HANDS DOWN – the best thing i’ve seen on your site. **bows deeply at your feet** i’ve made your pie pops and will be experimenting with cake pops, possibly this weekend…but these….Bakerella, i worship you!!!!!!
It’s official! You are a genius! These are awesome!!
OMG! I absolutely love these! Can’t wait to try it!
I am amazed at your genius!
I am over the top flabbergasted!!
So amazing.
These are just too stinking cute! You did an awesome job! You are so talented!!! I absolutely love your blog!
This is amazing! I was excited to see the different Sesame Street characters depicted by Google and I was delighted to see the characters in cake pop form! What a treat! Amazing job, Bakerella!
These are amazing! Thank you for showing us these and working so hard on them! Congrats to Sesame Street as well – was my favorite show as a youngin’!
Oh these are beyond cute! I think they might even be one of my favs that you’ve made! x
Great…My husband is really going to strangle me…It’s bad enough I am absolutely obsessed now that I made my first batch…Now I have to try these …Good thing I got 2 kids that are willing to taste test everything :)
WOW, these are so cute! I am continually amazed each week at your baking creations. My two year old would love the Elmo ones. Perhaps I will attempt these first. Keep up the great work Bakerella, and let us all know when your book is coming out!
oh my gosh…these are amazing!!! You are so very talented and inspire so many!!! Thanks!
This is edible art, although I’m not sure I’d ever eat them because they are too adorable!!!
oh my goshness…gorgeous to the max! :D i love elmo so much! would love to make these so much…but they take so much time and the ingredients are tough to find in singapore
Hi Bakerella,
HELP!!
i promised my brother i’d make him a tiramisu cake for his 21st birthday, but have yet to find a good recipe. His party is next week. Any recommendation?
thanks,
Rianz
Truly phenomenal job with those Street pops. You made what I’m sure was a tough challenge look fairly easy and entirely do-able. And the PW sheet cake? Totally agree. Too good for words.
I honestly never know candy melts exsisted! ..this makes alot of decoration much easier! thanks for sharing such a cute idea!
These are absolutely, positively the cutest pops I have ever seen!
I remember when Sesame Street started!
I am beyond impressed! This look amazing! And I think you’re right – Oscar’s mouth really came out well!
So awesome! Love them all!
these are the most adorable things i’ve ever seen. ack! enough with all the cuteness already!
oh my goodness, they are just amazing!!! I loved sesame street as a child and your cake pops capture the magicalness perfectly!!
So AWESOME I can’t stand it! I will love these F-O-R-E-V-E-R!!
WOW…WOW…WOW! These are A-MAZ-ING! I want some now. These would have been a huge hit at my DD’s birthday party last year! I may just have to try to make some of these.
You should seriously do a cake pop character contest to see what your readers can create!
Love the site…keep the good stuff coming!
Those are amazing!!!! You are so talented.. Love them!
Bakerella I’m new to this website and the one thing that amazes me is not only the awesome ideas but the obvious love you have for baking and creating. So thanx for sharing it!!! What I was wondering was for the Sesame Street Characters what if you dyed some flaked coconut in the red,blue,yellow, & green & coated the balls right after dipping them in there melted candy leaving the mouth bare. That might be easier & still give the “furry look”.
Are you kidding me?!?! These are so awesome!
Fantastic!!! I check every Monday to see what’s new… and I was so excited by this week’s post. Wow!!
OMG… I think I am in love… your site is AWESOME!!! I don’t have nearly as much time to bake as I’d like… but I am so insprired by your posts! I can’t wait to try out the Sesame Pops… and think I see a theme for my daughter’s second birthday in a few months!
Keep up the amazing work… I look forward to reading more!
Cheers!
Absolutely adorable! I think by far, these are my FAVORITE cake pops. You are so talented!!
Sesame is why my 2 year old knows her numbers and letters! Not that I can compare to bakerella, but I gave an homage to the big b’day last week on my blog, too! With Elmo, Oscar and Cookie Monster marshmallows :)
You have too much talent!! Thank you for that!
Now I understand why sesame street has been on google.com all week !
oh my gosh! these are possibly the coolest things i have ever seen!!!! you’re amazing xxx
omg, too cute for words! My daughter is a big fan of “mo mo” and would love these. What a perfect way to celebrate Sesame Street’s anniversary.
I have ALWAYS been a Sesame Street fanatic. It’s an awesome show – and these pops definitely do it justice. :)
Absolutely LOVE it!!!
You are AMAZING. I seriously can’t stand it. This is the cutest thing EVER. Your ideas are unbelievable. I love you! Keep it coming!
Cookie Monster would say…me love these!!!
They are totally too cute and creatively inspiring.
I’m also new to your site…but I’ll be here often! These are unbelievably detailed, adorable, probably delicious, although I’d feel horrible eating them after all that hard work!
thank you for making us all better chefs!!!!
Brilliant, just brilliant!!!!!
Sesame Street has a soft spot in my heart, as it was a huge part of my childhood.
What a perfect way to mark their anniversary.
Can i have the whole recipe for the “Sesame Street Cake-Pops? Thanks!!!
These are adorable and my 2 and 3 year old would love these! It exhausts me to even look at the process of making these. Could you just send me yours? THANKS!
Love these! Just tweeted your page and also posted on the blog! http://www.coolmomsrule.com/2009/11/bakerellas-sesame-street-party-cake.html
These are some of the cutest things I have EVERRRRR seen. I love them <3
Amazing… That’s all I’ve got…. WOW… SO cool!
Best ever. And that’s saying something.

i’m so glad you did these, they’re awesome!!
Hi! I´m writing from Chihuahua, Mexico. I have been following your recipes and every time is harder not to take a bite of the screen of my laptop. You are wonderfully creative and original. Congratulations! Mexican hugs and kisses!
I just fainted. These are so cute. You are an amazingly creative woman. Thanks for helping the rest of us out.
So beyond cute! How do you keep your brain from expolding with all your ideas? You are awsome!
I’m utterly speechless.
Once again you’ve nailed it.
Jim Henson would be proud.
such unbelievable detail. you are a master of your craft
We’re on the same wavelength… I almost attempted these for my daughter’s 2nd birthday a few weeks ago and chickened out. Made Elmo cupcakes instead. However, didn’t stumble upon the sixlets… had to use overturned white chocolate chips instead. Yours looked like mine in my head… :o) Aren’t we creative! Ha! Thanks for the fun!
My family and I LOVE these SS cake pops. I must make these!!!
Those are so perfect! Especially Big Bird. I just can’t believe the amount of patience you have. I made your cake balls exactly one time. Sad little lumpy things, and they completely wore me out. But they were delicious, and my daughter absolutely loved making them. You’re amazing!
These are just TOO CUTE FOR WORDS!!! I have a question… what consistency should we look for in the coating?
Beautiful!
Those are AMAZING!!!! Thanks for sharing them. Better not show my kids or they’ll want them :)
These are absolutely adorable. Clearly labor intensive, but I would dare to say that they’re incredibly accurate! You’re not only an inspirational baker but a very talented artist!
I don’t think there is any other way I can say it, you are awesome. I love everything you do and I am just trying to find a block of time to try some of it out myself.
Very impressive, Bakerella! I love Oscar the best!
I love everything you do, God bless your hands and the great talent you have. Keep developing your creativity, there are many like me who want to keep learning from you.
Kisses, from the Dominican Republic
OH MY GOSH..I can’t get over how adorable these are. You are one talented lady! Thanks for sharing.
These are the most original, adorable & cute cake pops!! What fun to have a yummy “Ode to Sesame Street’s 40th Anniv” too!!
I have never seen anything so DANG cute!
These are the cutest things I have ever seen!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE THESE!!! my family always request me to make cake pops for them….im gonna try this…theyre gonna love it like i do! but you do them so PREFECT!!! oh my! now you should do disney theme…like oh…mickey and minnie mouse! =) hehe
I could actually make these because my cake pops always come out all bumpy anyway. I could skip a step. They sure are CUTE!!!
What an adorable idea! I have three nephews that just might benefit from this post… I just might benefit as well! :)
A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E.
that is all!
OK those are the cutest yet!!!!!!! Love them :)
P.S. You probably already thought of this in your insanely creative mind…. But, Oscar would look even more awesome if you used some of those mini silver baking cups below him (might have to be coated with white chocolate or something to keep their shape, but anyway).
I think I already commented on this when you first posted it, but I am sitting here again, this time with my daughter who is 19 months old, and she is literally screaming/squealing with excitement!!! it is so adorable.
I don’t know why I am always surprised by your genius.
Hey, have you ever considered touring (you know, like PW!!!) and hosting pop making classes??? You have such a HUGE following and I know that I, for one, would LOVE to pay to attend one. What a treat that would be.
I know that’s asking a whole stinkin’ lot… But, hey. I just thought I’d ask :O)
Wow!! There is no end to the possibilities. Just love the sesame characters. Will make them for my ladies book club. They will love them too.
Holy crap! You are one amazing woman. I SOOOO want to make these but I think I might stick MYSELF in the oven before I was even a quarter of the way through. Ha! Plus I don’t think I’d have the heart to let anyone eat them since they are not only cute, but tons of work/time! So awesome, though! I am super impressed!
Oh. My. GOD!!! Those are fantastic! Seeing these made me so happy. And then I teared up just a little at the end when you mentioned Jim Henson. He was so amazing. I still miss him whenever I watch The Muppet Movie with my kids.
Thanks you so much!! I love Sesame Street and I love cake pops. These rock. I need to get in gear for the holidays and I think I am going to have to add these to my treat list.
Please tell me that the next cake ball you do will be pumpkin cake mixed with cream cheese frosting dipped in dark chocolate! I want to try it out, but think you will have better luck :)
OMG!! AMAZING!
I’m typing from the floor b/c I keeled over from these CUTE pops! I love them! Thank you for honoring Henson’s classic characters (and yes, I suppose Elmo needed to be included in there). My cake pops still leave A LOT to be desired – something in the cake to icing ratio, I think – but one day I aspire to this greatness. Just in time for my twins to be way too cool for cake pops, I’m sure. Love you, Bakerella!
omg definitely SUPER cute!!! and amazing. great job!
These are amazing! Your creations are always so mind blowing, you are inspiring me to practice baking! How would you go about making monkey cake pops? My boys are having a monkey themed birthday party and these would be awesome to have!
Love, love, love these cake pops!! They are so stinkin’ cute!
Wow. Best things EVER! So adorable!
Cute overload! I am so happy to see them and to watch the process. Thank you for sharing your amazing talents! I look forward to your blogs!
Bakerella!! You are so talented!! I’m obsessed with your blog!! Thanks for sharing it with all of us!!
AMAZING! So cute.
I said OMG out loud…then I got a little teary…
You are one talented lady. These are brilliant!
Just went to walmart!!! Couldn’t fine them!!! I am so bummed!! I know a special little someone who LOVES elmo!!!
Oh my gosh, it was a lot to read, and super hard to even imagine doing it, but I honestly burst out laughing when I got to the bitten into Cookie Monster! So that was well worth it.
Oh, and… you are AMAZING. I want you. I mean, I want you on stand-by to make me amazing cake pops. Not, well, you know!!!
Bakerella – these are so cute. I don’t know where you find the time. Super cute. I may have to try the Elmo one because my son’s 2nd bday is coming up and he loves elmo! Thank you! They’ll all cute, but I love the cookie monster one too, especially with the classic kookie eyes and cookie. love it! Thanks for the tip on the eyes, now I’ll have to make a trip to Walmart, hopefully they’ll still have some!
These are fantastically adorable!
You are truly a marvel! I’ve tried a few cupcake pops now, some to great results….and others? not so much! I am in awe of your expertise! Keep ’em coming!
You are insanely talented! These are fantastic! Really!
So adorable! Though I was thinking of doing something girly and pink or something Irish (she’s a St Patty’s Day baby) for my daughter’s first birthday….I think this has inspired me to change the theme to Sesame!
These are sooo freaking amazing!!
I just posted a comment to you on Amy Atlas’ blog b/c I thought that was where her tweet took me.
Your creations are always so inspiring. Thank you for sharing them. I may just need to go blog about you. I have shared you on fb and all my friends just swooned.

… and Sixlets are EVIL. They’re made with carob and artificial flavors. Beyond nasty. They’re to M&Ms what TAB is to Diet Coke.

Oh my goodness! Just incredible! You are amazing Bakerella!!!!
how did you get your cakes to stay the same color when you mix frosting with it? cuz when i do it, the edges are light brown so they make the cake a little darker ><

currently picking my jaw off the floor. My 15 month old daughter LOVES Sesame Street. Especially Elmo. ALL things Elmo. This Friday we are headed to see Sesame Street Live: When Elmo Grows Up. These pops could not have come at a better time. Thank you so much for sharing. They are amazing!
My daughter will be 2 on Xmas day and loves Elmo. I might have to venture out and try these. What a lovely tribute to Sesame Street. You are so creative!
