I can't wait to show you how to make cake pops at home. Along with the chocolate, the idea of a cake ball on a lollipop stick is pretty cool.
Ingredient
-1 box of your favorite cake mix (plus ingredients on back) or your favorite homemade cake recipe.-– 1/3 cup approx. of frosting (your favorite kind)– candiquik– candy melt
Direction
1
Homemade cake pops require a base cake and a few other ingredients:1 box of your favorite cake mix (instructions on package) or handmade cake recipe.
2
After baking your cake in any pan, let it cool fully. Break it up in a big bowl. I also found a way to break the cake in a heavy-duty zip-lock bag.
3
Now add our favorite icing. I use store-bought white vanilla icing. Start with one heaping tablespoon of frosting, or 2 or 2 1/2 Tbsp. (35g).
4
Grab some cake mixture and form a ball. I measure two Tablespoons to produce a decent-sized cake ball. Roll the cake mix into a ball using your palms after kneading it.
5
Melt Candiquik, candy melts, almond bark, or chocolate chips/bars. I've tried all three and like melted Candiquik's consistency. Can't go wrong with candy melts. Use your favorite chocolate.
6
Once our homemade cake pops have firmed up it is dipping time! Melt more chocolate, I usually only do one color/flavor at a time. If you are using a more shallow bowl, tilt the bowl of chocolate, then dip your cake pop into it.
7
Decorating these handmade cake pops is next. You can experiment with vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and other flavors.
