How To Bake Cake Pops In A Mold

How to Make Cake Pops or Cake Balls Three Ways: Traditionally cake pops are made with crumbled cake. I’ll show you how to make the traditional homemade cake pop along with using a silicone mold and donut holes. Cake pops are the perfect little party treat. They can either be placed on a stick or sitting on a tray as cake balls. These easy to make party treats and can be made in advance. Scroll down for all the details with a lot of helpful tips.

You can make a homemade cake, but there is no shame in using a boxed cake mix. For added flavor and to create a more dense cake pop try adding a small package (3.4 ounce) of pudding mix to the cake batter.

I have two favorite ways of protecting the cake pops while the candy is drying. 1. STYROFOAM: Using the same size lollipop stick as the cake pops, make holes a few inches apart in the styrofoam. This will make placing the wet cake pops easier then having to make holes while the cake pops are wet. 2. RICE: Pouring rice into a container that is as deep as the cake pops (with the sticks) and wide enough to hold several will keep cake pops from falling over while drying.

Melting pots from Wilton make candy making so easy. You can keep 1 or two colors warm at the same time. The insert comes out so you can also keep piping bags with melted candy warm.

CAKE BALLS (NO COATING): The cake mixture can be prepared a couple days in advance and kept in the refrigerator until ready to use. You can even form the cake balls a day ahead and let them chill in the refrigerator for easier dipping. If you want to prep your cake balls and freeze them, store them in a large freezer bag. They can be kept frozen up to 6 weeks. Let your cake balls come to room temperature before dipping. ***SEE BELOW WHY CAKE POPS CRACK***

COATED CAKE POPS OR CAKE BALLS: Dipped cake pops decorated with Candy Melts can be stored at room temperature for a week. If you use white or dark chocolate, store them in the refrigerator so the chocolate doesn’t melt.

FREEZING CAKE POPS: Once the cake pops are dry, place the decorated cake pops in a freezer safe zip top bag. They will stay fresh up to 6 weeks. When ready to use let them thaw overnight in the refrigerator.

Making cake pops or cake balls just got even easier! Instead of baking a cake, adding frosting to the crumbs, molding the mixture into balls….use a silicone cake pop mold! MAKES 72 1½ INCH CAKE POPS

If your candy shell is cracking, it’s mostly due to an extreme change in temperature (cold cake balls being dipped into hot candy). This can also happen with hot candy or chocolate being put into a cold refrigerator or freezer. To avoid cracking, let your cake balls warm up to room temperature a bit before dipping in warm candy or chocolate. Once dipped, let your cake pops sit at room temperature for 5 to 7 minutes before placing in the refrigerator or freezer so the candy has time to cool.

If your cake balls are falling off your treat stick, they could be too heavy due to size or adding too much frosting. To help ensure your cake balls stay, be sure to dip the stick in melted candy before inserting it into the cake ball. This hardened candy coating acts as a glue to hold the stick in place. If you think you’ve added too much frosting, add a little more cake to help even out the texture.

Melt candy as directed in the Cake Pop instructions, dip stick into the melted candy and insert into the donut hole. Let the candy harden.

Dip the donut hole in melted candy, add toppings and place in a styrofoam board to harden or on a flat surface lined with parchment paper if laying them top side down.

Think outside of the box and be creative….anything that has an end that can be inserted will work. You could use a fork, appetizer pick, sucker stick, popsicle stick, pencil with a special cake pop insert or decorative sticks for each holiday.

When it comes to adding frosting to your cake, you want just enough to moisten it. This is especially important to keep in mind if you’re using a boxed cake mix, which is already pretty moist. Start with a small amount and add more as needed.

While cake balls are setting, melt Candy Melts candy according to package instructions. Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into melted candy, then into set cake balls. Repeat with all cake balls, then let chill again until set, about 10 minutes. Reserve remaining melted candy. Dip cake pops, one at a time, into remaining melted candy. Tap lightly to remove excess. If needed, you can reheat the candy with some EZ Thin Dipping Aid or vegetable shortening to thin it out for easier dipping. Immediately cover with sprinkles or topping of choice, then transfer to craft foam. Repeat with remaining cake pops. Chill until set, about 10 to 15 minutes.

Hello, I'm Sheryl and welcome to Lady Behind the Curtain. Here you will find a mixture of easy everyday recipes, party ideas and party treats. Along with lots of tips and tricks for easy entertaining.I bake more often than the average person so people sometimes assume that I’m an expert and ask me questions to which I am unable to respond. Recently, one of the most recurring questions has been, ‘Where can I find a cake pop mould?’. I now have the answer: . Yes, the Kitchen Craft Sweetly Does It Silicone Cake Pop Pan is one of their latest nifty products and I put it to the test.

The mould is easy to use. It makes 20 pops at a time, which is handy if you’re making cake pops for the masses. All you have to do is fill the bottom half with dough, secure the top half, and bake! The key lies in greasing the holes thoroughly, and also securing the top so that the cake balls hold their shape.

Without further ado, here’s my step-by-step guide to using the cake pop mould. I used a chocolate sponge recipe but you can use any sponge cake recipe you like. To coat the pops I used candy melts, only because I wasn’t in the mood to temper chocolate. If you’d prefer to use tempered chocolate, brief yourself on the science behind it here.

2. Grease and flour both halves of the cake pop mould. If you don’t do this, the cake pops will stick to the mould.

4. Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt and add them to the egg mixture. Mix until combined.

5. Place the bottom half of the mould (the one without the holes) onto a baking tray. With a 1/2 Tbsp measure, scoop the batter into the holes so they’re about 3/4 full.

6. Secure the top and bake for about 15 minutes on the baking tray. The tiny holes at the top will let the steam out while baking.

7. When the pops are done, leave them to cool in the silicone mould before removing them. I put mine in the freezer for about half an hour, as this makes them easier to coat.

8. Melt your Candy Melts or temper your chocolate. Dip one end of the cake pop sticks into the Candy Melts and insert them into the cake pops. Allow them to set in the fridge for 5 minutes.

9. When the sticks have been secured, you can dip the cake pops in the Candy Melts to coat them and then sprinkle with decorations. Mine dried upside down on a platter but you can also stick the pops in polystyrene to dry upright.
