No-Bake Cake Batter Cake Balls are studded with sprinkles, a sweet vanilla, buttery cake batter filling and dipped in a white chocolate shell!
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.
Even better, these No-Bake Cake Batter Cake Balls still have all the fanciness of traditional Cake Balls but with half the work. There’s no need to turn the oven on, bake a cake, mix up frosting, and mash the two together. These No-Bake Cake Batter Cake Balls can be made in the coolness of your kitchen with an electric mixer and your microwave, making them a perfect weekend project when the summer heat wave peaks.
Edible No Bake Cookie Dough Bites
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!

Easy Homemade Cake Pops Recipe
Cake balls are such a fun and festive dessert, and they’re almost too pretty to eat! I love making cake balls because they’re a total crowd pleaser, both kids and adults alike adore them.
A cake ball is essentially a truffle make of a blend of cake crumbs and frosting that is dipped in candy melts. Cake balls are often topped with sprinkles or decorated in ways to look like flowers, animals, you name it!
The first step to making cake balls is to bake a 9″x13″ cake. I always use a cake mix because there are so many flavor options, they always come out moist and delicious, and it’s just so easy. The cake gets crumbled up before it’s mixed with the frosting, then shaped into balls. You can make your cake balls as big or as small as you like, I typically go for about 1 1/2 inches in size.
Cookie Dough Cake Pop
Looking to turn your cake balls into cake pops? It’s easy! Simply place your formed cake balls onto lollipop sticks, then chill and dip into candy melts as directed in the recipe below.
I find the easiest way to dip cake balls is to place each ball on a fork, then spoon the candy melts over the top. Tap the fork lightly against the side of the bowl to remove excess chocolate. You only want a thin coating of chocolate, otherwise the excess chocolate will pool at the bottom of your cake truffle as it hardens. Gently transfer each dipped cake truffle to a sheet of parchment paper to let it harden. And don’t forget to add your sprinkles while the cake balls are still wet!
I used a classic yellow cake with vanilla frosting here, but there are so many ways to flavor your cake balls such as

Cake balls will last for 5-7 days when stored in an airtight container. If you need to store them for longer than that, you can transfer them to the refrigerator where they will keep for up to 10 days.

Vanilla cake — I use a box cake mix for these cake balls for convenience. However, if you have some leftovercake lying around, you can use that as well because nothing beats homemade cake. If you prefer you can use chocolate cake, red velvet cake, or strawberry cake instead.
Basic Cake Balls Recipe
Frosting — you can use homemade vanilla frosting (great use for leftovers) or store-bought frosting. I prefer homemade for the flavor, but sometimes convenience wins! Of course feel free to use chocolate frosting or cream cheese frosting instead.
Candy melts — once melted and dipped, candy melts will set up with the same look and texture as chocolate. It’s easier to use than chocolate, as you can skip tempering it. Careful not to scorch the melts, or they’ll harden too quickly to work with.
6. Melt candy or chocolate wafers according to the package instructions. Dip the tip of a lollipop stick in the melted chocolate and insert about halfway into a cake ball.
Chocolate Cake Pops
7. Dip the cake ball into the chocolate. Remove and gently tap on the side of the cup to let excess coating drip off.
If you don’t have candy melts, try melting wafers (my favorite is Ghirardelli Vanilla) or melting good white chocolate or dark chocolate bars. If the chocolate is too thick, you can try stirring in 1 tbsp vegetable oil to the melted chocolate.
The main culprit of a cracked cake pop coating is due to significant temperature differences in the cake balls. If the cake balls are too cold and the melted candy melt is too hot, the coating will crack as the hot mixture will cause the cake balls to expand and then contract. To prevent this from happening, make sure the coating isn’t super hot when you dip your cake into it. Allow your coating to cool for a few minutes before dipping.
Edible Cake Batter (with Actual Cake Mix!)
Don’t skip dipping lollipop sticks in the frosting before inserting into the ball. This helps the sticks stay put in the balls as they harden. Not inserting the lollipop stick deep enough will cause them to fall off as well. Finally, make sure your lollipop sticks aren’t too thin, as you need a thick enough stick to hold the weight of the cake balls. My go-to lollipop sticks are pictured above.
If you’re making cake balls ahead of time, you can keep un-dipped cake balls in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. After dipped and decorated, store them in an airtight sealed container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
You can freeze uncoated and coated cake balls for up to 2 months. When ready to enjoy, let them thaw at
