Step 1: Guide shapes
Lightly sketch this oval. It only shows where the big parts go, so press softly. You will erase it at the end.
Step 2: The round pop
Draw a big round shape for the cake pop, starting at the top and leaving a small gap there. Add a little bump on each side near the upper middle, like icing peeking out.
Step 3: The wavy icing line
Draw a soft wavy line across the pop, from the bump on one side to the bump on the other. Make three or four gentle hills, like a ribbon of frosting.
Step 4: The stick
Under the circle, draw two straight lines going down, a little way apart. Join them at the bottom with a rounded curve, like a long skinny U.
Step 5: The top of the heart
At the gap on top of the pop, draw two small round bumps side by side. Let them dip in the middle and go down on each side to meet the circle.
Step 6: The heart point
Close the heart by drawing a curve from the bottom of one bump down to a point and back up to the bottom of the other bump. The point dips into the top of the pop.
Step 7: The sweet eyes
In the plain lower half of the pop, draw two small dots side by side with space between them. Fill them in solid for a cute, happy face.
All done!
Erase the guide shapes, go over your lines, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a Valentine cake pop
- Draw the big round shape slowly and leave the small gap at the top. It is the biggest part, so take your time with it.
- The heart is small and tricky. Draw the two bumps first, then the point, and it will look much neater than one long swoop.
- For the wavy icing line, think of gentle hills and valleys. Try making the middle hill a little taller than the ones on the sides.
