Pineapple Coconut Football Cake Pops

Where have cake pops been all my life?  I only remember them coming into popularity within the past five years.  They are so easy and a great way to make any cake experience better.  Plus, they’re festive!  So, to bring some festivity to your tailgate, I’ve got Pineapple Coconut Football Cake Pops.

Of course, if you don’t like coconut or pineapple, any cake and frosting flavor will do.  But, I’m a tropical flavor freak and had to force the finished products of these little babies off on friends, lest I eat a dozen by myself.

Want to see me make them with some step by step instructions?  Per usual, I set up the camera, recorded the how-to, and Blaise even joins in at the end for a taste test.

One little note for a slight variation.  If you didn’t want to put the on lollipop dowels, you could just make these as cakes.  The trick to getting them properly coated is to spear them with a toothpick first.  Then, dip them in the chocolate and then twist the toothpick out, making for a perfect chocolate-dipped cake.

Cheers to you and your team this football season!
