Gluten Free Cake Pop Cream Puffs

Gluten Free Cake Pops

 

I love baking. It has been a favorite past time of mine for years. And when it snows, well then I absolutely must bake. This past week we had a snow storm and I got it in my head that I wanted to try making some gluten free cake pop cream puffs. I recently bought a BabyCakes Cake Pop maker and got an itching to try it out. I also wanted to see if I could come up with a gluten free vanilla cake recipe that was as good as the gluten free chocolate cake recipe I used for Matthew’s Birthday. I think these turned out amazingly well. They would look lovely at a brunch, Bridal Shower or Baby Shower. They have an easy elegance about them that makes them an instant classic. And to really punch up the flavor why not try drizzling them with a little homemade chocolate sauce?

I served these with my homemade chocolate sauce. They would also be amazing with a homemade coconut caramel sauce.
