Equipment
- 24 Cake Pop/Lollipop Sticks
- 1 Cake Pop Stand (or styrofoam)
Ingredients
- 1 Batch Homemade Vanilla Cake (or 1 box cake mix, prepared according to package instructions and cooled)
- ½ Cup Homemade Vanilla Frosting (Reduce this frosting recipe to half) (Store bought can be used too)
- 2 Cups White Chocolate or Candy Melts
- ½ Cup Sprinkles
Instructions
- Crumble cake in a large mixing bowl and add vanilla frosting to it. Mix it all well using a fork or with your hands.
- Form 24 balls with this cake mixture and allow them to chill until firm to touch. Take them out of refrigerator and roll them again quickly one more time to smoothen them out.
- Melt white chocolate using double boiler or in microwave (in very small increments 10-15 seconds). Add a teaspoon of oil to thin it out if necessary! Dip the tip of lollipop sticks in melted chocolate and press it in the center of cake ball.
- Then dip the ball in melted chocolate and immediately top with sprinkles. Allow to set on Styrofoam/cake pop stand until ready to serve.
- Repeat the step above until all the cakepops are formed. Enjoy!
Notes
Storing Information:
- Store them in refrigerator at all times until ready to be served. These can stand room temperature for a few hours if it is not hot outside.
- To freeze cake balls for later use I suggest freeze them uncoated. Thaw cake balls completely for a few hours/overnight in refrigerator and then coat them in melted chocolate.
- Never dip super chilled cake balls into hot chocolate or else they can crack.
- Always allow cake balls to firm up in the fridge to help them stick to lollipop sticks and coat easily.
- After chilling, roll the balls quickly once again. This little step will make them super smooth and pretty!
- If you notice the chocolate is getting too thick to work with, reheat it using ½ teaspoon of oil to thin it out.
