Donut Hole Pops Tiered Display

Who doesn’t love donut holes! Yum! I was actually thinking about making cake pops, until someone suggested using donut holes and I thought that was genius – because everyone loves donut holes! So today I have a quick idea and tutorial on how to make your own Donut Hole Pops Tiered Display – because half of the fun of treats is their presentation.

I think this will be super fun for Valentine’s Day morning, or for a Valentine’s Day party. And of course you can switch out the pink and hearts and use this idea for any type of celebration.

To get started, you’ll need:

–2 Make It Fun Cake Forms, one smaller than the other (this is a sponsored post, but all opinions are my own)

–donut holes – yep, I just bought mine, but you can go crazy and make homemade ones if you want – and candy melts and sprinkles

–glitter paper and heart punch, and hot glue

–sticks – sucker sticks or fun straws

First, I added a little fun to the store-bought donut holes. I piped on some candy melt and then sprinkled on some heart sprinkles. Adding embellishments to store-bought food is a fun way to have a homemade look without all the extra work 😉

Then you’ll embellish the cake forms…

I used a punch to punch out a bunch of hearts from red glitter papers. I love that punch – it’s worth getting, I use it all the time. Then I simply used hot glue to attach the hearts to the edges of the foam forms.

Next I stacked the forms and sprinkled candies for added fun and depth. I did knock a few off when I added the donuts, but I thought it’d be easier to put the candies on first than to try to put them on after all the donuts were on.

To turn the donut holes into pops, I used fun paper straws. I used them hole, cut them in half, and cut them in thirds – that way I’d have a variety of heights to work with. Then push one end into the donut (being careful not to go all the way through) and one end into the foam, where desired.
