Cake Pops are very popular at parties at the moment, in fact so are lollies and candy bars. My inner healthy voice screams out at me when I look at these gorgeously presented tables, asking "Where's the healthy options!? " I do love a good cake, but I also love to have healthy options.
My kids love Strawberries, they are low in sugar, high fibre, and loaded with nutrients. So I decided to experiment with my cake pop alternative - Strawberry No - Cake Pops!

I used ordinary drinking straws for the sticks. The result was yummy looking fresh strawberry pops... but then I thought I had to have a wicked version too, so pulled out the electric fondue maker I bought for $5 from Crazy Clarks.
The results? YUMMY! ♥
Why not have both versions at your next party? !
A Few tips:
* Use firm fresh Strawberries
* The "healthier" chocolate to use is dark chocolate
* When putting dipped strawberries in fridge to set, used a few glasses so your not crowding and ruining the chocolate finish, once set then arrange in final glass.
* Other fruits to use with this method include pieces of Melons, whole Seedless Grapes, wedges of Pineapple etc..

Thanks, this post made me laugh. You know what? I don't like Cake Pops much - too sweet and too much trouble for a busy mum. But no Cake Pops? That's got my vote! I could even give them 2 versions, one with chocolate as above, and one dipped in creme fraiche!
