These DIY [LEGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-great-british-bake-off-set) cake pops by [Cake Power Kids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cake-picnic) accurately depict the expansive and customizable world of LEGO.

The best part about these treats is that the baker can be so inclined to create any face they want. They can even turn themselves into a delicious LEGO character. If you're feeling adventurous, you can take this recipe and create [LEGO Star Wars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brickbuilt-star-wars-logo) and Batman characters as well. Just be warned that the recipe for that isn't included and may prove to be tricky -- but that's part of the fun!

The idea here is to build as many DIY LEGO cake pops as possible. Remember, the more faces that you create, the more cake pops that you and your loved ones get to devour.
