Creamsicle Cake Bars

Orange creamsicles is one classic summer treat. We have made this classic with a twist by making creamsicle cake bars. This post and recipe was created for #SummerDessertWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% mine. Using easy tools to create the cakesicles and coating process. 

Summer is all about making new memories with those we love and what better way to make memories than with dessert! These creamsicle cake bars are so much fun to make. They make great treats throughout the day and travel well. My kids brought some to share with their cousins during the weekend. I think they’ll want a dessert bar filled with creamsicle cake pops for their upcoming birthday. Maybe we can host a party sooner just to make cakesicles in all sort of flavors and colors combinations! How fun is that?
