Behind the Scenes: Cake Pops Holidays Book Trailer

Cake Pops Holidays

My new bookCake Pops Holidays is coming out soon. Yay!

And last month, we shot a book trailer for it in San Francisco.

Christmas Cake Pops

It involved cake pops of course.

Todd & Diane

And my friends Todd and Diane from White on Rice shot it. I was so happy to finally work them. If youre familiar with their blog, or photography or other videos, you know why. And if youre not, you should check them out.

(P.S. Todd and Diane have their own book in the works right now. I know they are pouring their hearts into every word and every photo and Im so happy for them.)

Cake Pops on Camera

When Chronicle (my publisher) told me they wanted to make another video, I thought Id do something different from the first few, so I suggested we shoot it at ! Chronicl e Books and give it a bit of a Santas workshop feel. Or as much of a feel that we could do in a few hours filming in August. : )

Props and Pops

I shipped giant snowflakes, sugary sweet props and brought some adorable gingerhead pops.

Cake Pops Holidays Video Shoot

We made garland from promotional postcards, wrapped presents and decorated with candy ornaments.

Diane

Diane brought giant Peppermint decorations that happened to work perfectly with one of the pop designs in the book. Oh my gosh, I need one of these! Or ten.

Ho Ho Ho

Peter brought the fun! As always.

Vanessa

Cake Pops Holidays Video Shoot

I basically moved in for the afternoon. We made it December for a day and it was a blast.

Thanks Peter, Amy, Vanessa, Ben, Alice, Doug and Claire for playing around with me.

And Chronicles Headquarters has such wonderful light throughout the building, it made every shot easy breezy.

Scariness. Todd dont trip please. That would be bad.

Holiday Cake Pops

I need to show you one day how I travel with cake pops. I have a pretty awesome and easy way that I found ! to safel y carry them on a plane, across the country. I always panic when I do something like this. I would normally ship them, but when Im traveling one day and filming them the next, I like to personally carry them to make sure they make it safely. Always stressful for me, but so far so good.

Todd & Diane of White on Rice

Thanks Todd and Diane for making the shoot so fun and for your amazing talent.

And Chronicle, thanks for letting me invade your offices with sugar and glitter.
