Novolog Cake Pops = Amazing.
You know when you're skimming through the newsfeed on Facebook, and something totally grabs your face and says "LOOK AT ME I AM THE AWESOME?"
Yes, that's precisely what happened when I stumbled upon Faye's photo of Novolog-inspired cake pops. (You did read that correctly. Here, look:)
Photo - and cake pops - by Faye!
Faye has been living with type 1 since the age of 9, and for her 18th diaversary she wanted to make something special and bolus-worthy. Her current obsession has been cake pops (making them and feeding them to her non-d friends, even though I can safely say that some of her d-friends would happily go chompies on one), so when she saw the bright orange candy melts at her local AC Moore, a lightbulb went off - NovoLog cake pops! It was too funny (and ironic) to pass up. It's a celebration of living with diabetes for 18 years, and it's also a tribute to the diabetes community and a reminder to find the humor in our journey.
In addition to being a mad scientist in the kitchen, she is a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in the Philadelphia area. You can check out here photography site here!
Awesome, Faye. Thanks for sharing this. Let me know when your photography/bakery is shipping to Rhode Island! :)

Best cake pops ever!
I, too, love to make (and eat!) cake pops, but Faye's Novolog cake pops trump anything I've ever created! :)

They make me laugh, they make me want to bolus and they make me hungry. They are simply marvelous!

It would have been awesome if she listed the nutrition facts on the back. None the less these are great, pure genius.

I am laughing on the floor with this one. On my fifth cancerveristy I made boobie cakes using an Easter egg cupcake mold and ju-ju-bees and took them to my oncologist and surgeon. Everyone was very receptive. Glad to know that I can make the same fun on my diaversity.
