Things the mem bers learned: You have to work fast to get the sprin kles to stick, you have to swirl the stick to catch the drips, sometimes food coloring makes the coat ing thick and hard to dip, it makes a lot of cake pops, and making cake pops is very messy and very fun. Working on record books while waiting for things to chill and melt and dry was not as fun, but it got done anyway. Participants then ate cake pops and took some home to share.
