Gnome Cake Pops

As I was sitting here looking through hundreds and hundreds of photos of my adorable 6-year-old daughter, I came across the pictures of her latest birthday. She was so set on a garden themed party this last year and she had everything planned out exactly how she wanted it. One of the best things about my little girl is that she really, really loves planning things! Especially holidays and parties. She loves to think of creative ideas and she really loves to see them come together. She asked me and asked me if I could make her some gnome cake pops for her party and I was super excited for the challenge!  I actually had a lot of fun making these cute little garden gnome cake pops and I even modeled them after the gnome I created for her birthday party invitation! 

To make them, I started with a big ball of cake and used it to shape the head/body/arms. It kind of looked like a star with a rounded top tip. I used bugles for the hat and the rest of the design was done with dyed white chocolate! They were actually pretty easy to make! 

I thought I would put them up on the blog for anyone looking for cute inspiration for a garden birthday party. I know that when I'm getting ready for a party I like to spend hours upon hours searching for cute ideas to fit the theme! I hope these cute little guys will help anyone looking to throw their children a fun, colorful garden theme party!
