One of the most eye-catching designs of this testing period belonged to this Cake Pop maker from Spin Master. Everything is bright, colorful and inviting. The invitation, of course, is to make non-bake cake pops, the dessert sensation that has the foodie world all atwitter. Parents admitted that their first reaction was that this was going to be a messy disaster, but they were delighted to see that the mess was nominal and well worth the price for the fun it delivered. The mix requires only water, no baking. The next step is cranking them through the pop-making machine, inserting the stick and then decorating to your heart’s content with icing, sprinkles, etc. So how do they taste you ask? The clear consensus was that they were delicious. The set comes with only two packets of cake mix, so you can expect to be shopping for more pretty quickly and that should be factored into your price/value decision.
