Vanessa Kimbell Cake Pops on BBC Radio

April 21, 2011 by Sarah Trivuncic 16 Comments

After our recent mixer-off challenge on Vanessa Kimbell’s BBC Northampton radio show, we pre-recorded a cake pops show too. The show is broadcast between 9 and 11 on Easter Sunday morning on 102.4FM or you can listen in live via BBC iPlayer. Catch up will be available from iPlayer for 7 days.

 

Whilst I saunter around Paris I will share with you a few photos of our cake pop making session. Don’t they look fabulous?

Vanessa’s new cookery book Prepped will be published in early June.

    Those cake pops, I love (I recently made ones covered in hundreds and thousands too)! Doing broadcasts from the kitchen sounds like loads of fun 🙂 I would like to check out Prepped when it’s published, looks good!

    This looks like fun, we have very poor bandwidth here bin Finistere, so will listen back in London. Will certainly have a go when I get home. Jude x

    I just recently made Cake Pops for the International Incident Party hosted by Jeroxie.com. It wasn’t nearly as much fun doing it on my own as you guys looked like you had here!

      Their redeeming feature if that they’re so darned cute to look at. Way cuter than cupcakes too.

      Diet friendly? Depends how much cake and sugar has been condensed to make one… you’d be amazed how big a piece of cake shrinks down to make a dozen of them!!
