Christmas Pudding Christmas Cake Pops recipe

November 16, 2011 by Sarah / Maison Cupcake

Christmas cake pops are here to stay; my version uses store bought fruitcake and spicy Maya Gold chocolate.

Fabulous Christmas pudding cake pops made from Maya gold chocolate and real fruitcake - full tutorial with step by step pictures

Christmas Pudding Christmas Cake Pops

I can’t possibly wait until December 25th for my Christmas pud and with these bitesize Christmas pudding cake pops you don’t have to.

These glittery and sparkly christmas pudding cake pops only require basic skills to get a professional effect.

They’ll make an awesome centrepiece for your holiday party table or you can give them as cute gifts.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

We all love Christmas pudding in our house and I thought it would be fun to make Christmas pudding christmas cake pops.

Christmas cake pops

Made with fruit cake and dipped in Green & Black’s Maya Gold chocolate, they’re a bite size treat you can share with your friends throughout December.

How to make Christmas pudding Christmas cake pops

First take one bargain pre-made supermarket fruit cake.

I really don’t go in for making cakes that you’re soon going to….

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

…mush up and mix with buttercream. This time of year is busy enough as it is!

Boozy brandy in the buttercream is positively encouraged if you are making these for grown ups.

Christmas pudding cake pop balls

Roll the cake and buttercream mix into balls and pop into the freezer for 20 minutes. No longer – unless you snigger want rock hard balls.

Melting chocolate in microwave Microwaved melted chocolate

Meanwhile melt a bar of dark chocolate in the microwave in a mug. Today I used Green & Black’s Maya Gold which has a perfect spiciness to go with Christmas pudding flavours.

That white stuff is a tablespoon of Trex or Cookeen (vegetable fat) that makes your dipping chocolate dip nice and smoothly.

Lolly sticks for Christmas cake pops

Grab some sticks. I like fat wooden ones like you used to get ice lollies on rather than airy fairy coffee stirrers pilfered from coffee shops.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

And go dip!

Sadly I have only one pair of hands so I couldn’t take pictures of the actual dipping process today.

Push the pops into a block of florist’s oasis wrapped in film (or polystyrene) whilst the chocolate dries.

Mich Turner range vanilla sugarpaste

Silverspoon Designed by Mich Turner white icing

Meanwhile you can get going on the decoration.

Take some white sugar paste. Today I’m using this new Silver Spoon Designed by Mich Turner white icing which is flavoured with Madagascan vanilla adding to the Christmassy feel.

(I have some of this range to give away below so keep your eyes peeled!)

Renshaw green icing for Christmas cake pops

Renshaw ready to roll icings

And for the for the holly leaves and berries I am using Renshaw green and red icings which are super for modelling without the faff of having to add your own food colour to plain sugarpaste.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

How to make Christmas pudding cake pops

Take a curvy flowery blossom cutter around 2 inches across; roll out a golf ball sized ball at once. These dinky non stick rollers and a non stick mat help stop your sugarpaste sticking to the table without needing to add extra icing sugar.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

Flatten the shapes with your fingers and position on top of the cake pops.

I dabbed some royal icing on the other side. You could use squeezy tube writing icing if you didn’t want to make this although I find home made icing much easier to pipe out.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

Decorating Christmas cake pops

Then we make holly leaves. This holly leaf cutter was a bit big for what I needed so I turned the cutter round the other way to make smaller holly leaves.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

Use a spear modelling tool to engrave a spine down the centre; or you could gently score a line with a small knife so long as you take care not to tear the leaf.

Dab more royal icing (preferably same colour) to the underside of the one end of the leaves.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

Dot them on the top of the cake pops then pipe more blobs of green icing to affix the red berries on top.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

So they start looking like this.

Edible red glitter on Christmas cake pops

Edible red glitter to roll your berries in isn’t compulsory but it does make your pops sparkle!

The most glittery one I’ve found is by Rainbow Dust. It’s like being at school again.

Christmas-pudding-cake-pops

Ta-dah!

Now I’ve already said they smell great and I wish I could tell you what they taste like, really I do.

But tauntingly I’ve not been able to try one. (Well ok I did try a bit of the cake mix!)

Christmas pudding cake pops

And that’s because they’re not for me, not for anyone in my family, I’m not really sure who they’re for yet because I’ve made them to take to Let’s Make Christmas at Fortnums organised by Vanessa Kimbell taking place this Friday.

Vanessa, writer of Prepped, has cajoled and arm twisted (well probably it didn’t take that much persuading) about fifty squillion food bloggers to come the length and breadth of the country to get together at the Wombles’ favourite department store; Fortnum & Mason in Piccadilly.

Christmas cake pops

And we have to arrive bearing gifts. It’s a kind of food blogger secret santa only probably without the secret bit if people have already blogged what they’re taking.

None other than baking supremo Dan Lepard himself will be judging who has made the best gift.

I can’t wait. I hope there’ll be sparkly stuff to drink.

I hope you enjoyed this Christmas pudding Christmas cake pops guide.

Do share it with your friends on Pinterest or Stumble if you did.

    It would have to be Yule Log for me, one of my favourite Christmas treats and they would suit this style

    • Sarah, Maison Cupcake says

      November 17, 2011 at 12:35 pm

    What a great give away, I have been thinking about getting some lustre spray for a while, it gives cakes and cupcakes that extra special look but haven’t had a reason for buying any.

    Oh and I would like to see a turky pops.

    How long would they keep do you think, because of the buttercream? I might make some as pressies but would probably need to substitute the buttercream to make them keep, any ideas?

    I think it would have to be A Chocolate Yule Log sitting pretty on a stick, with sprigs of icing holly (including the berries of course) and lastly a light dusting of icing sugar.

  89. Vikki Measures says

    November 24, 2011 at 5:30 pm

    Fruit cake with a centre of Wensleydale with Cranberries, match made in heaven. I don’t think the chocolate coating would work with the cheese though.

    I absolutely love your idea for the cake pops. They look amazing! I’ve never been too keen on christmas cake and since being diagnosed coeliac I could only have a gluten free version anyway. So instead of the christmas cake pops I think I’d like to make these out of something like melon balls covered in choccie….oooohhhhhh must go and give it a try to see if it works! @piperanddaisy

    Just for future reference, non-toxic and edible do not mean one and the same. Non-toxic simply means that if you eat it, it’s not poisonous. However, your body cannot digest it. It’s important to understand this because if people with certain stomach ailments were to eat things that the body cannot digest or has trouble digesting it can cause extreme pain or even infection which can lead to serious complications. While Rainbow Dust does have edible options, not all of their products are classified as such. Judging by the packaging in your photos, it looks to me like you used one of their non-toxic, not edible, glitter dusts. While most people do throw away fondant and sugarpaste decorations before consumption, it cannot be assumed everyone will. Thus, it’s important in the future to note to those you gift these to (and preferably when you blog, as well, for readers who may not know) that things decorated with these glitters are purely for looks and should be removed before eating.

    I really want to make these!! – What do you mean by ‘buttercream’? Here in Australia that would mean buttercream icing; is that what you are referring to? Thanks πŸ™‚

  149. Gill says

    December 29, 2011 at 11:14 pm

    Yours looked so lovely, I thought I’d have a go (and also, because I couldn’t bear to throw away my Christmas Cake offcuts!)
