Do you make cake pops.... you know mashed up cake with icing rolled into balls dipped into chocolate?
OR
Do you have one of the new pans for the oven that BAKES cake balls?

Do you have a business? Do you sell these? Can you make enough money off them to be worth the time and trouble?

Would love to know others experience with this. I made them once (cake pops) and thought they were time consuming.

We looked into selling cake pops (as a small batch custom cake shop) but they ended up being too time-consuming for their market price. For a high volume shop with more fixed overhead the numbers might work out better.

As with most things, make a lot of them and you get better and faster at it. I had one order for 750. I definitely picked up speed.
