This week, the Kitchn makes cake pops—or cake balls, cakesicles, whatever you want to call them. Essentially it's a frosted ball of smushed cake on a stick!

Also on the Kitchn:

• How To Chill Wine Quickly with Salt: Place the bottle in an ice bucket, fill it with ice, and add a handful of salt. The salt lowers the freezing point of the ice, so it'll speed up the chilling process.
• Candy with a Crunch! Honeycomb Candy from the Seattlest: Called Crunchie bars in the UK or Violet Crumbles in Australia, these are airy bars of caramel-like "honey comb" coated with a thin layer of chocolate.
• Dorie Greenspan's Applesauce Spice Bars: A luscious yet homey recipe that's moist, spiced, and not too time-consuming.
• Recipe: Cauliflower Purée: If you want to impress your guests, you can call this classic French dish by its original name: chou-fleur purée.
