Raw Cake Pop Challenge Roundup

Last night at midnight was the deadline to enter the Raw Cake Pop Challenge, and boy have we got some creative entries! Lisa and I knew it was a tough challenge, but the participants' hard work and determination exceeded our expectations. Today, we carefully narrowed down the 12 entries to three finalists based on the judging criteria and spent close to eight hours recreating the recipes. Tomorrow, we plan on hosting a tasting party with friends to select the winner. Stay tuned!


Here is the roundup of entries, in no particular order:

Bean of Without Adornment made Strawberry Cheesecake Pops.


Deanna of The Mommy Bowl made Coconut Chocolate Chip Sort-of Cake Pops.


Deanna of The Mommy Bowl also made German Chocolate Cake Pops.


Sasha of Blyssful Health made Cacao Raspberry Cake Pops.


Sasha of Blyssful Health also made Carrot Cake Pops.


Jennifer of The Robertsons of Mumbai made Chocolate Orange Cake Pops.


Marcy of (Don't Be) Too Timid and Squeamish made Macadamia Cherry Chocolate Cake Pops.

These are so clever. I've never made one but I'm going to have to break down and try it. :)
