How To Make Cake Pops Out Of Cupcakes

The flavors here in these Cake Pop Cupcakes are very simple. Chocolate and Vanilla. The cupcake is chocolate, topped with Swiss Meringue Buttercream. And the cake pops are chocolate cake, mixed with some of the Swiss Meringue Buttercream, and covered in candy melts.

This was my first time making cake pops. I must say I was in love! I just want to make more of them. They are so delicious and cute!

You are going to start with some cake. Here I give you the recipe for a 8″ chocolate cake, to be baked and then turned into the cake pops.

Process the cake in the food processor. And then add a bit of frosting to it. Process until the cake turns into a dough.

Melt your candy melts. Have your cake pop sticks ready. Dunk the stick in the melted coating and remove excess, leaving a thin layer of coating at the end of the stick.

Wait for the coating to set before dipping the cake pops. You can place your baking tray in the fridge for 3 minutes or so to speed up this part.

Then dip the cake pops in the coating. Dip them at a 90 degree angle, without twisting or swirling your pop. Simply dunk it and pull it back up at a 90 degree angle.

TIP: use a toothpick to help the excess coating drip away, and also to pop any air bubbles in your coating, which may lead to cracking.

My grandpa was an outstanding human being. A selfless generous soul. He left Portugal when he was 15 years old, hiding in a cargo ship, trying to scape the war.

He ended up in Brazil where he worked many jobs, and saved enough money to open his own bakery. He married my grandma, who opened her own bakery. So you can see where my passion for baking comes from, right? I grew up in a bakery, seeing my grandpa everyday, and my grandma baking in the back.

My grandpa had a warm personality, a kind smile, and a positive attitude, no matter what. And I am so grateful that our paths crossed here in this planet.

*You can skip the coffee and use hot water instead if that’s your preference. Sometimes I also add some espresso powder to the batter on top of the coffee, about 1/2 teaspoon.
