Preparation

1

For the Cake Pops

Place the vanilla sponge in a food processor and blitz until the sponge is a fine crumb – if you don’t have a food processor this can be done by hand.

2

Place the sponge in a bowl with the Vanilla Buttercream and mix with a spatula until the Buttercream is mixed into the sponge and it begins to stick together.

3

Using your hands bring the mixture together and roll the mixture into 8 equal ovals – use an egg as a size guide. Place on a tray lined with greaseproof and put in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.

4

Decoration the Cake Pops

Whilst the cake pops are in the fridge, colour your Fondant Icing. Take 400g of Fondant and knead on a surface lightly dusted with icing sugar until soft and pliable. Add a few drops of Yellow Colour Gel into the Fondant and knead the colour into the Fondant. Keep adding a few drops of colour until the colour is evenly mixed through and you have bright yellow fondant.

5

Colour the remaining Fondant with the Orange Colour Gel. 

6

Wrap the coloured fondant in cling film to prevent it drying out.

7

After 30 minutes remove the cake pops from the fridge. Divide the yellow fondant into 10 equal portions. On a surface lightly dusted with icing sugar roll out a portion of the yellow fondant to approx. ¼ cm thickness. Wrap the yellow fondant around one of the cake pops, cut away any excess fondant and pinch the fondant together to create a seal. Rub the seal with your thumb to smooth it out. Repeat this until all the cake pops are covered in yellow fondant, you should have 2 portions of yellow fondant remaining.

8

With the remaining yellow fondant, roll out and cut out 8 circles, then cut the circles in half, this will create 16 wings. Stick a wing to the side of each cake pop using a small paint brush a very small amount of honey. 

9

Using the orange fondant, roll out and cut 8 small triangles and place in the centre of the cake pop, this is the beak – place on the opposite side to the fondant seal. If the fondant doesn’t stick, then use a small amount of honey.

10

Finally using a small paint brush paint eyes onto the chicks using the Black Colour Gel.

Your chicks are now ready to serve and enjoy!
