The cake pop trend experienced a true boom in the past few years, largely thanks to their cute Instagram-friendly nature. Many food artists and passionate bakers found viral fame thanks to this picture-perfect sweet treat, including Leslie Soto of Down to the Krumb.
Since starting her Instagram page @downtothekrumb, Soto has attracted 110,000 followers, in addition to over 200,000 more on TikTok. She deserves all the attention coming her way because her cake pops happen to be some of the most spectacular, colorful, and delightful that you’ll ever come across.
Even though cake pops are now her specialty, Soto wasn’t making them from the very start of her baking journey. She actually fell in love with making desserts when she started experimenting with custom cakes for her kids and used leftovers to bring her signature cake pops to life.
It didn’t take her long to fall in love with them, and her little hobby eventually grew into a successful business. Her main priority is to bring joy into people’s lives and make desserts that will put a smile on someone’s face and make their day a little bit happier and brighter.
From cupcakes and cookies to birthday cakes, she enjoys making all sorts of different sweet treats, but cake pops remain her personal favorite.
