The candy melt will crack if there is a temperature shock. Let the cake pops come to room temperature a bit before dipping them in the candy melts.

Tricks To Make Cake Pops More Easily

You need to dip the sticks in the melted candy melts beforehand, which will act as a glue and prevent the sticks from coming off the cake.

Are Cake Balls still popular? I’d say yes, based on the fact that when I arrived at a recent gathering with a plate full of these No-Bake Cake Batter Cake Balls, the party guests’ eyes lit up and I was excitedly questioned with ‘Did you make Cake Balls?!’ So yes, Cake Balls are still popular.

No

Even better, these No-Bake Cake Batter Cake Balls still have all the fanciness of traditional Cake Balls but with half the work.

No Bake Chocolate Cake Pops Recipe (healthy, Vegan, Gluten Free)

Like my Oreo Cake Batter Cheesecake , these Cake Balls are studded with sprinkles both inside and out. They have a sweet vanilla, buttery cake batter filling and are dipped in a white chocolate shell that locks in all the Cake Batter sweetness!

Although these Cake Balls are simplified with their No-Bake status, they still require a bit of timely love due to the nature of dipping each Cake Ball individually into the white chocolate. You then must carefully maneuver the Cake Ball from the skewer and delicately lift it onto a piece parchment to set while topping it with a pinch of sprinkles for decoration. My advice is to turn on some of your favorite tunes and take your time doing this. I myself found it to be quite relaxing!

Since the dipping piece of this recipe can be a bit fussy, I created a quick how-to guide on how I successfully dipped each No-Bake Cake Batter Cake Ball.  My two key tools were a wooden skewer and flower lifter — used in traditional cake decorating to lift icing flowers on and off cakes. If you don’t have a flower lifter, a fork will also work favorably!

There's no need to turn on the oven with these No-Bake Cake Batter Cake Balls that are studded with sprinkles, a sweet vanilla, buttery cake batter filling and dipped in a white chocolate shell!I’m still very new to going sugar free and it’s something that I am trying to embrace. Can I be honest? It’s been an incredibly fun journey. I will let you giggle at that because it sounds ridiculous at first thought. This is the girl who used to thrive over creating copycat treats into gluten, egg, and dairy-free goodies and loved spending time with my oven. I loved sugar. Loved sprinkling it over dough and loved working with it without reservation.

How

So what happens when someone like me is told to stop eating sugar? Sweat with panic. Sure, that happens in the first moment but then what? I get back into the kitchen and find awesome recreations of the recreations I once made, that’s what. This time, however, I’m learning how to do so with safe ingredients that don’t mess up my blood sugar levels and keeps my Candida at bay. I found it even more serendipitous when Angela from Canned Time invited me to be a part of a blogger event, “Family Favorite Desserts” where each blogger shares a favorite dessert that has been veganized. The catch? It has to be made with stevia. That is all I can have these days anyway, so perfect.

Cake Pops Recipe

So enter my new relationship with stevia. I will say, it took me some time to not only get used to it but also learn how to use it properly but I truly believe that is where a good brand comes in handy. (NuNaturals has been by far my favorite tasting stevia I have tried). It takes adjusting and to be honest, this journey hasn’t been about eating sweet treats every day.

I used to crave sweets around 3pm and then after dinner every day and would indulge that craving every time (I HAD to). Now that I have removed sugar from my diet, it has drastically decreased (which is insane considering, well
ME). So for those days I need something fun and sweet, these no-bake (almost raw) cake pops do the trick. Valentines-ready too!
