Cake pop kabobs, a cute and flavorful spin on the profoundly popular treats, present decorators with the opportunity to add some additional flair and flavor to the trendy dessert.

The cake kabobs featured on the right, courtesy of naturallysweetrecipes.blogspot.com, stand out from the typical cake pop with the bright red strawberries. Not to mention, cake kabobs are as easy to make as they look. It’s just a matter of picking a fruit that pairs well with the cake flavor. This can be pineapple, strawberries, apple slices, mangos, or kiwis. Even savory flavors, such as bacon, could be the perfect flavor component.

Once you have your flavors selected, simply alternate from cake and the complementary flavor on a metal or wooden skewer. These can be packaged in plastic or displayed near your register as impulse items.
