How To Make Cake Pops With Store Cake

Today I am showing you how to make Cake Pops using cake mix. These little nuggets of cake dipped in chocolate have become a huge trend.

Charles says that he likes them because you can have just a taste of dessert without committing to eat an entire piece of cake or a cupcake. (My opinion? Life is short, eat a whole piece of cake!)

How

Cake pops are prepared by baking a cake, mashing it up, mixing in frosting, rolling it into a balls, putting it on a stick, and dipping it in chocolate. The flavor combinations are endless, and you can decorate them with colored sprinkles or dunk them in colored white chocolate to match any party theme or color scheme.

Best Cake Pop Recipes

You can use any boxed cake mix to perpare this recipe. If you really want to keep things simple, you could buy a couple cupcakes at the grocery store and then mash them up frosting and all to make cake pops.

First, you need to bake a cake. Then you take that cake and break it up and add some frosting. I used a store-bought chocolate cake mix. If you want to bake a cake from scratch, you might want to try my friend Jocelyn’s chocolate cake recipe.

Mix the frosting into the cake, mashing the cake up at the same time. You will end up with soft cake that can be easily formed into balls.

Roll the cake into balls, you want them to be about the size of a ping pong ball. Then dip the sticks in melted chocolate and place them in the cake balls.

Then the cake balls go into the freezer until they become solid. This is very important. You need to put the cake pops in the freezer before you dip them in the melted chocolate, otherwise, they will fall apart and make a mess. Trust me on this one.

I loved how these cake pops turned out. You can really taste the caramel frosting, and I liked the way the nonpareils gave added crunch.

Birthday Cake Pops To Easily Share

I used the cake mix to bake two 8-inch round cakes. Then I used about 1/4 of that cake to make Cake Pops (I didn’t want to make too many because I knew I would end up eating all of them).

Pro Tip: Save the cake mix box and use it to stick the cake pops into while the chocolate dies. Or if you want to be fancy, cake pop stands exist.

I mean I don't think the debate here is if you like cake pops or not. Yes as an adult I think it's a waste because I would rather have a slice or 2 of cake. My son on the other hand wants these for his birthday party and I think it's a great idea I'll make enough for everyone to have 2 or 3 and they look fun and it's something different.

Oh Contrer...Cake pops can cut your day in half and the expense as well. If you make 40 Pops vs baking cakes or even cup cakes for 40 people....much less expensive and time consuming. They can be put in a pretty jar or vase on either end of a Buffet table or distributed onto the actual tables themselves at Anniversary parties etc. This way as well, the couple, may keep their small cake to take home.

I've ordered the silicone cake pop maker for $2.97. That way you just bake the cake pops already shaped in balls. Skipping the making the cake and manually forming balls. Though a very small treat, it helps control my grandbabies snack intake. Can't wait to make with them...

They look yummy and fun to eat! Thanks for sharing it over at Food Friday. Excited to see what you’ll be sharing next! :D
