Savannah Guthrie Shares Relatable New Year's Eve Food Fail: 'Intentions' vs 'Reality'
The 'Today' show cohost attempted to bake cake pops covered in star sprinkles — and it didn't go quite as planned
Savannah Guthrie's New Year's Eve sweet treats didn't go quite as planned.
The Today show cohost attempted to make a sparkly baked treat on Tuesday, Dec. 31 for her New Year's Eve celebrations, she posted on Instagram.
Guthrie, 53, shared a picture of bright blue cake pops covered in delicate star sprinkles that she planned to bake. "New Years Eve intentions," she wrote on her Instagram Stories. The next slide, however, was a bit different than the previous one.
"New Year's Eve reality," she wrote beneath a picture of the chocolate cake pops on a baking tray. Some had sprinkles and frosting overflowing off the cake pop sticks. Others had no frosting at all.
Her baking misadventures didn't thwart her New Year's Eve celebration, though. The mother-of-two shared other shots on her Instagram Stories of a cozy fireplace and flowers, along with a place setting with her name tag and selfies with loved ones.
Guthrie's holiday season has been action-packed. She celebrated Christmas with her family, complete with matching red-and-white striped pajamas. "so very merry! ❤️💚," she captioned the post.

Earlier in December, Guthrie and her daughter Vale, 10, joined Today cohost Jenna Bush Hager and her daughter Mila at a festive and bright holiday party at the White House. The coworkers also participated in a delicious cookie swap.
The 2024 holiday season also marked the end of an era — Guthrie's longtime cohost Hoda Kotb announced that she was leaving the morning show in September, making this one Kotb's final as a cohost. The Rockefeller Christmas Tree lighting ceremony was Kotb's last special she would host, and the friends shared a sweet moment on the broadcast as they cozied up and snowflakes fell.
Guthrie also just celebrated her 53rd birthday on Dec. 27, and shared a picture of her outside at dinner surrounded by greenery and candles.
"thank you for the beautiful birthday wishes 💛. This is 53!" she captioned the Instagram post the day after.
