WICHITA — When Kellie Foltz officially debuted her Cake Ball Divas creations at Exploration Place’s Death by Chocolate party in March, most people had one question:
Where can we get these things?
“We just got a very big response,” Foltz says.
She describes the cake balls as the size of a large truffle with the visual aesthetic of a fine chocolate.
She also makes cupcakes and cookies and is opening a specialty bakery, Sweetly Scrumptious, to sell them all.
The shop will open in the next couple of weeks in Normandie Center at Central and Woodlawn between the Seafood Shop and Beyond Beads Boutique.
Foltz will have a wide array of flavors, such as pina colada cupcakes and mocha espresso drizzle cake balls.
Foltz got the idea for the cake balls when a friend brought her a similar confection from out of town. Foltz thought she could improve on it.
Soon she started sharing her concoctions with friends, including people she knows through being the restaurant chair for Winefest.
The popularity of the cake balls has grown from there.
Foltz’s motto already is in circulation, too:
“You are what you eat, so eat something cute.”
