International Cake Pop Day is celebrated every year on February 1st. This day is dedicated to the delightful dessert known as the cake pop, which is essentially crumbled cake mixed with frosting and formed into a ball or various shapes.

The idea of celebrating this day was conceived by Angie Dudley in 2012. She chose February 1st to commemorate the anniversary of her post that first drew attention to cake pops.

Cake pops have since become a popular treat worldwide, known for their versatility in design and flavor. They are often decorated with colorful icing and sprinkles, making them a hit at parties and gatherings.

On International Cake Pop Day, people are encouraged to try making their own cake pops, experimenting with different flavors and designs. It's a fun and creative way to engage with baking, and the end result is a delicious treat to share with others.

So, on February 1st, grab your apron, gather your ingredients, and join in the celebration of these delightful miniature cakes on a stick!
