The Hubby called last minute to say there was a potluck at work tomorrow
and he wanted some cake pops w/ a Nice Display. You know, something that really stands out and says "I'm the Man" ( :) Luvvels you Greggy)
Okay....Cake Pops!
If anyone of you have ever made these delightful treats you know how time consuming they are.
I headed on over to the baking cabinet & realize all of my baking & decorating supplies had been packed away for our move.
YEY! Dollar Tree, here I come!
While I walked the aisles, racking brain trying to figure out how to make these cake pops w/dollar store items.
I realized when they had no sticks or treat bags But they had cupcake papers!
And Yellow ones at that!
And Yellow ones at that!
Yellow Yellow And More Yellow!
Okay It's not Spring, but it is September,
Yellow Would be a good Visual against all the fall dishes!
That's bound to stand out!

The OFFICIAL Title of my dollar store Treat Dish for a bunch of Office Personal?
Lemon Chiffon cake pop truffles w/ Lemon Buttercream center, a white chocolate coating
and Dusted in a Lemon turbinato sugar.
Total cost for this sweet and tart concoction...$7.56.
(And this was BEFORE I found out Dollar Tree takes COUPONS (ERG))
I was able to produce 24 handmade large cake pop truffles.
With all that Yellow There is a slight aura & reflection on the backsplash wall!
