Now make up a thin icing with water and icing sugar and dip the cake snowballs into this. I told you this was going to get messy!

Yes, you can freeze the actuals snowball cakes before you get to the jam filling and icing stage. Just wrap them well in cling film and a freezer bag and they will keep for up to 3 months.

How did the decision to dye the coconut pink occur? Why are they shaped like a chest? Is there any dessert on the face of the planet that could stimulate this much debate?” A few seconds later, Jason asks Lorelai: “Watch my Sno Balls please,” to which she responds: “Not on the first date, Mister.” Spector, Dina (November 18, 2012).

I honestly loved the filling so much that I’d like to see more of it in the cupcake. You could get more coconut flavor by adding coconut flavoring along with the vanilla. Lift them out and roll in the coconut to cover the little cakes completely and create Scottish snowballs! For the small ones I had the kids all color their own coconut – we had a couple of classic pink and white ones, but being able to make your own was so much fun for the kiddos! I love food you can color because then you can make it for any event or theme and match it to any event!!! What color of snow would you make?I couldn’t wait to eat mine the minute I got home and would try to pinch my brother’s snowball cake too. In the X-Files episode " Tempus Fugit", Fox Mulder and Dana Scully are eating at a restaurant; Mulder has arranged for the restaurant staff to sing "Happy Birthday To You" to Scully while delivering a pink Sno Ball with a sparkler on it to her at their table. [3] In television and movie references, [3] Sno Balls are often used as an emblematic "junk food," or as a means of communicating caring from one person to another. The base is my favorite Chocolate Cake recipe, and the topping is my classic Marshmallow recipe. So all I really had to come up with was the filling. I did a lot of research – what is the actual filling in sno balls? It’s a creamy vanilla marshmallowy smooth filling. It’s the same filling as the hostess cupcakes and twinkies… so light and smooth too, not super heavy. So not buttercream. I though about using this cooked filling recipe from I am Baker – I made that cake a few months ago and I enjoyed it but it was heavier than the sno ball filling. It seemed that the consensus online is this marshmallow fluff frosting is the way to go. I did make a few changes, one being I added corn syrup to help with the shininess and smoothness of the frosting (I think corn syrup is magic for frostings and candy) This is a really long, detailed recipe. It’s definitely a weekend project if you want to eat the cupcakes fresh, but you can also make parts of the recipe ahead, which would cut down on the feeling of how long it takes.

First, you want to make the dough for the snowball cakes by sifting your flour, sugar and salt into a bowl. This gets rid of any bits and pieces that shouldn’t be there in the first place and airiates the flour too.Scottish snowballs are the perfect sweet treat, from their coating of pristine white coconut to their oozing strawberry jam in the centre. These snowball cakes are just perfect with a cup of tea and kids adore them too. Plus they are super easy to make. The inspiration for these snowball cakes a b c Leite, David (15 April 2004).
