• Preheat the cake pop maker.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.
• Beat eggs and sugar until light...about 1 minute.
• Add butter and vanilla, beat another 1-2 minutes.
• Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and blend until combined.
• Depending on your cake pop maker, fill each well with about 1tbsp of batter and bake for 5 minutes.
• Set aside to cool before icing.

For the Icing

• To get the right consistency for coating the cake pops, you need to melt the icing over a warm water bath.
• Place a medium pot, with a few inches of water in the bottom, on medium-high heat, bring to a simmer.
• Whisk together icing sugar, turmeric and meringue powder in a metal bowl.
• Slowly add the warm water, until icing is thick and smooth.
• Dip the cake pop sticks into the icing and poke into the bottom of the cakes, this will secure the stick to the cake.
• Place the metal bowl, with the icing in it, over the warm pot of water. You will want to hold the metal bowl with an oven mitt...it's going to get hot.
• Dip the cake pops into the warm and smooth icing. The icing will coat the cake pop.
• Roll the cake pop in the icing, until it is completely coated.
• Poke the cake pop into the top of a cardboard box to dry...see note 1 below.
• Let cool and decorate as you like.
• We used some spring candies and some plain white royal icing...same recipe without the tumeric.
