Step-by-Step Instructions for Cake Pops

  • Combine 1 cup of cake crumbs with ½ cup of frosting in a large mixing bowl. Mix until the ingredients form a cohesive dough.
  • Roll small portions of the cake mixture into uniform balls, each about the size of a golf ball. Place them on a lined baking sheet.
  • Refrigerate the cake balls for about 30 minutes to firm them up.
  • Melt chocolate or candy melts as per package instructions until completely smooth.
  • Dip the end of each lollipop stick in melted chocolate and insert it halfway into each chilled cake ball.
  • Dip each cake ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated.
  • Stand the dipped cake pops in a styrofoam block or a cardboard box to harden.
  • Once the chocolate coating is slightly set, decorate with colorful toppings.
  • Allow the cake pops to sit until the coating hardens completely, usually about 15 minutes.

Notes

For best results, ensure your cake crumbs and frosting are mixed thoroughly and chill the mixture before shaping.
