My son took these to his first bake sale at school and was the hit of the class. I wrapped the pops in clear plastic wrap, tied them with decorative ribbon and stuck the sticks into a piece of Styrofoam for an attractive display.—Linda Dyches, Round Rock, Texas

Arrgh. I just finished making these to take to my daughter's church event. I should have known better than to use a recipe I had never tried.

Some things you should know:

-After making the cereal/marshmallow mixture, you will have to allow it to cool for a while before you can form it into balls. And you will have to heavily grease your hands. Often.

-The popsicle sticks like to come out of the balls.

-Do not try to dip the balls, then hang them upside to dry to get the bottoms to dry pretty. The cereal ball will fall apart and right off the stick. :(

-I made 1.5x this recipe and barely had enough for 30.

They do taste good! I may make it again, now that I know what not to do.
