They say memories can be linked to smells and that’s exactly what happens with this cake. One whiff of this sweet cake and you’re transported back to every single childhood birthday party you’ve ever attended or brought your own children to.

Gluten Free Cake Pops

Boxed Confetti Cake will always be a favorite because of the nostalgia. It’s not just about the cake, it’s about all the memories and fun times linked to it.

The cake pops are held together with vanilla frosting. I used a half batch of my Vanilla Buttercream Frosting recipe; which is also the same frosting I use for my Gluten Free Sugar Cookie Bars.

Gluten Free Cake Pops (low Fodmap)

This Gluten Free Confetti Cake Pop recipe is made with cake mix to keep things simple! More superficially, I used King Arthur Baking Company’s Gluten-Free Confetti Cake Mix, their newest (and brightest!) cake mix. It tastes

Like the cake you remember from your childhood, a cake that can now be part of your gluten free kid’s childhood too! Or you can enjoy it yourself because we’re all basically just kids at heart 🥰

If you’re trying to avoid artificial food coloring, you’ll be happy to know that King Arthur’s Gluten-Free Confetti Cake Mix is made without synthetic flavors, colors, or preservatives. That’s right, the sprinkles in the mix are naturally colored!

To make dairy free cake pops, use water or unsweetened coconut milk beverage to make the cake mix. Use 1/4 cup palm shortening and 1/4 cup vegan butter in place of the butter in the frosting and coconut milk in place of the heavy cream.

I decided to serve these cake pops with the stick facing up. I think it’s easier to serve and grab a cake pop with the stick pointing up. If you prefer to serve them the other way, you can use an empty cardboard box or styrofoam blocks as a cake pop stand; which is what I did when I made my gluten free chocolate cake pops.

Step 1. Prepare the Gluten Free Confetti Cake Mix as directed and bake in a 9×13 pan. When done, cool the cake completely.

Step 2. Make the vanilla frosting. Crumble the cooled cake in a large bowl into small-fine crumbs. You can crumble the cake by hand (which is what I did) or use a mixer.

Step 3. Add 2/3 of the frosting to the cake crumbs and stir until the frosting is incorporated. Add the remaining frosting if needed. You want the cake balls to hold together when formed into a ball. They’ll be firm and won’t crumble or crack.

Step 4. Use a slightly heaping tablespoon to portion the cake balls and place them on a wax paper-lined half sheet pan. Roll each portion of the cake into a tight cake ball. You’ll get about 40 in total.

Step 6. Once the cake balls are chilled through, melt the white chocolate in a deep microwave-safe bowl or glass measuring cup. Dip each lollipop stick in the melted chocolate and place in the center of each cake pop, pressing about 3/4 of the way through. Place the cake balls bake in the refrigerator until the chocolate is set around the lollipop stick.

Step 7. Working in batches of about, dip the cake pops in the melted chocolate until completely coated. Shake off excess chocolate and place on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Immediately add the sprinkles before the chocolate starts to set. Keep the remaining cake pops refrigerated while you work.

Step 8. Allow the chocolate coating to harden at room temperature. Once the chocolate has hardened completely, you can refrigerate or freeze the cake pops until ready to serve. Bring to room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving.

Gluten Free Cake Balls Recipe (3 Flavors)

Cake pops are sort of cake balls and can be linked back to lovely donut holes. Donut holes are usually glazed or covered in delicious chocolate. They are a tasty breakfast treat we have loved for years. They started the idea and helped it spread.

The main purpose of cake pops is to use up a stale or extra cake! The good news is that cake pops are denser and sweeter than the original cake. They are perfect for kid’s parties, birthdays, holidays, special treats, or just a little snack for yourself.

Making cake balls is perfect for those who like to play with their food! I also have a fun gluten free cake pop web story for more tips.

How To Make Chocolate Cake Pops

. Time to get those hands dirty. I had some extra cake from when I made these Gluten Free Chocolate Raspberry Trifles, so I used that for this recipe. Use your hands or fork to smush the cake into bits.

Step 4: Melt some chocolate in a microwave safe dish and dip a lollipop stick into the chocolate. Quickly push the chocolate-dipped lollipop stick into a cake ball and allow it to set. Repeat until every pop has a stick.

Step 5: Refrigerate the gluten free cake balls with the sticks for 30-45 minutes to solidify the sticks. This will keep the sticks attached to the cake balls when you dip them into the melted chocolate.

Step 6: Add your chocolate melting wafers to a small microwave safe dish. Be sure the dish is deep enough to dip the cake balls in. Melt the chocolate in 10 second increments. 

You can use milk, dark, white, or any chocolate flavor you like. If you want colored cake pops, use colored melting wafers that you can find at most grocery stores or add a few drops of food coloring.

Step 7: Dip each pop into the melted chocolate and dust with your favorite sprinkles. Place the cake pops back on the wax paper and refrigerate for 45-60 minutes. Enjoy!!

You can definitely use store-bought frosting to make these gluten free cake pops. If you prefer homemade frosting, here is an awesome Gluten Free Frosting recipe.

If you dipped cold cake pop balls into hot melted chocolate, it will cause cracking. When your cake balls are dipped in chocolate and warm a bit after refrigeration, they expand a little, which will crack the chocolate.

Cake pops can be made in any size, but note that the larger they are, the heavier they are, and the higher the risk of them breaking off the stick.

Gluten Free No Bake Cake Pops

Cake pops will last up to 4-5 days in the refrigerator. You can get them to last longer by freezing them. You can freeze the cake balls, then defrost them when you are ready to dip them in chocolate and eat them.

Store these cake pops in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep fresh for up to 4 days. You can also freeze the cake pops in a freezer safe bag. I recommend freezing the cake balls. Thaw, insert the sticks, and then dip and decorate them.
