Dolly Cupcake Wilmslow Cake Pop Review

Cerys won a competition on facebook for cake pops from Dolly Cupcake Wilmslow last weekend. She'd been dying to get them all week and on Saturday morning the postman delivered a package addressed to Cerys and we all knew what was inside.



She opened the parcel so carefully like it was a bomb due to go off lol. The cake pops were so well wrapped I had to do most of it for her. There was no way that those cake pops were going to get damaged Louise had done a fab job of making sure they arrived safely.



We let the children choose which cake pop they wanted to try and Archie and Jorja went for these cake pops.



Cerys, Harvey and Gwen all chose these cake pops.




Each cake pop was wrapped in clear plastic wrapping with a little tie to keep it sealed. They looked very pretty and extremely yummy.


Archie and Jorja's cake pops had chocolate cake as the center with a strawberry icing and little white chocolate stars on the outside. They found them a little hard to bite but once they'd managed a bite they made short work of them.

Archie was kind enough to let me taste his cake pop. Wow was it yummy. The cake in the center was so moist and chocolatey. The strawberry icing was lovely not too overpowering and went great with the chocolate cake. Jorja and Archie both loved their cake pops. They both said they couldn't find anything bad about them and they'd love it if mummy bought them some more to eat. Archie did say that he'd love a chocolate cake pop with chocolate icing and chocolate sprinkles though but I just think he's addicted to chocolate lol.

Cerys, Harvey and Gwen's cake pops had chocolate cake in the center with strawberry icing and then covered with chocolate sprinkles. Again they found them a little hard to bite into but once in them they managed ok with the rest.

Cerys let me taste her cake pop. It was again a lovely moist chocolate cake in the center with that just right strawberry icing and the chocolate sprinkles just made it that bit more chocolate tasting. Cerys and Harvey couldn't find anything bad to say about their cake pops. They loved them and said they'd love more of them. Cerys is also dying to know how Louise makes them. I took Gwen as eating all of hers as a sign that she loved hers too.

I really couldn't recommend these cake pops enough. They are £1 each and worth every penny. They are fab little treats and I'm going to get some for the children for their stockings this year. They aren't too messy even Gwen managed to eat hers without getting too covered. They are delicious and look fantastic.

We've not been too busy lately

So I would have posted sooner but we've not had a lot going on.


We've had the kids feeling a little off in the last week but not a full on bug just tummy aches and feeling tired. Archie was sent home from school twice and Cerys had the day off on Thursday as she felt sick. Archie was sick once on Thursday night. They seem to be getting over it thankfully.


The kiddies have been wanting Moshi Monsters cards so we've been treating them to packets when we can find them in shops. Not sure what is so great about them but the kids love them.


One of our kittens went to live in their new home on Wednesday. The couple were lovely and I think she's going to be their first pet. We still have the little boy living with us and hope he finds a new home soon.






I've noticed I'm starting to struggle with walking to the school and back. I get so sore in my pelvis from where Bubs head is resting that I then start walking at a snails pace so I suspect I may have to give up trying soon.


Gwen had her first hair cut on Thursday. She'd been long overdue for a trim but I didn't feel confident enough that she'd sit still for me to have a go at cutting it. With this warm weather she's been so hot and her hair has been so messy I thought it was time to just have a go. I ended up taking about an inch off the length and she looks so much better, no more straggly ends.





And finally Cerys won a giveaway on a friends facebook page today Dolly Cupcake Wilmslow
for Cake Pops. She'll be doing a review when it arrives which will be posted on the blog. She can't wait to try them they look so yummy.
