Make sure you use a cooking spray that contains flour. This is very important to help the cake come out of the pan fully.

Don’t make the cake balls too big! You want them to be exactly 1 T. Too big and they’ll be too top heavy on the sticks and they’ll fall off.
You don’t want the cake pops to be in the fridge for too long after poking them with the sticks and before dipping in the chocolate. If the cake balls are too cold and the melted chocolate is still pretty hot, you can get cracking in the cake pops.
I dipped some of my cake pops in chocolate candy melts, and some in dark chocolate. Be careful when melting the chocolate, you don’t want to scorch it!

If using pure chocolate, make sure you add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or vegetable oil to thin it out before melting it. This will make the coating smoother and all around better for coating the cake pops.
No cake pop stand or styrofoam? No worries! If you have a box from a recent Amazon delivery, you can place that on the counter and poke the sticks through that!
To make things easier, you can make the chocolate cake and frosting one day (store the cake covered at room temperature and the frosting in an airtight container in the fridge) and then assemble and dip the next day!
The Best Chocolate Cake Pops
Store cake pops at room temperature for 5 days or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
If you’re wanting to freeze chocolate covered cake pops, the best way to avoid the chocolate from cracking is to prevent drastic temperature changes. So let the chocolate set, then place in the fridge and then the freezer. You might experience slight condensation when you remove them from the freezer. They will last for 2 months in the freezer.
This happens when the chocolate is too hot and the cake balls are too cold. The stark difference of temperature can cause the chocolate coating on the outside to crack. You want the balls to be slightly chilled so the melted chocolate will firm up quickly (and not be dripping off the ball), but you don’t want them to be frozen are super cold. And you won’t need to reheat your chocolate prior to dipping the balls. Let the chocolate temperature come down so it isn’t so hot, but is still melted.
Cake Balls Recipe
When crumbling the cake, you didn’t crumble it into small enough pieces. You want the cake to be very crumbled so that it will fully combine into the frosting and become a uniform texture. That should roll into cake balls very easily and stay together really well. You shouldn’t have any issues with crumbling.
While writing this blog post it occurred to me that I had no idea who invented cake pops. I mean, it’s definitely more of a recent “invention.” Well, apparently Angie Dudley invented cake pops. She obviously had a lot of time on her hands! 😂

Don’t make the cake balls to big (no bigger than 1 T) or else they’ll be top heavy and fall off the sticks.
When dipping in chocolate, make sure the chocolate isn’t still really hot and the cake balls aren’t super cold. This will reduce the risk of the chocolate coating cracking.

Take a picture and tag @ on Instagram and Facebook so I can see what you’re making!Chocolate cake + chocolate frosting + cute heart sprinkles = the most adorable treat! Today we’re making chocolate cake pops because many of you request them, especially after I shared my vanilla cake pops. Your wish is my command. What I love most, however, is that you have creative control. You can decorate these cake pops in your own unique way, which makes this recipe 100x more fun.
I have plenty of step-by-step photos and lots of tips/tricks. I want you to understand every instruction so you can follow along and know what the heck you’re doing. The process isn’t difficult– you’re literally just baking a chocolate cake and making frosting then mixing them together. Things just get a little particular when it comes to rolling, lollipop-sticking, and dunking/dipping. If you can make bread bowls, you can totally handle cake pops! (They’re more fun to eat too… sprinkles!)
Super Easy Chocolate Frosting Recipe
By the way, if you’ve ever eaten store-bought cake pops– these taste totally different. They’re from scratch. No cake mix. No canned frosting. No preservatives. You can actually TASTE the homemade.
Quick tip: Whenever I make cake pops from scratch, I always begin the night before. I make the cake, cover it, and let it sit out at room temperature overnight. I also prepare the frosting, cover, and refrigerate. This way everything’s ready to go.
It might seem like the switch from vanilla cake pops to chocolate cake pops is easy. Replace some flour with cocoa powder, right? And vanilla frosting with chocolate frosting? I wish! Chocolate is a complicated soul and requires a little finesse, that’s why my vanilla cake and chocolate cake recipes are so different! I baked a couple single layer chocolate cakes before stopping at this one. The first few began with creamed butter + sugar. My favorite chocolate cakes and cupcakes typically rely on oil for the fat because (1) HELLO MOISTURE and (2) the flavor of butter really isn’t necessary because chocolate overpowers it anyway. My initial thought with cake pops, however, was that I needed a slightly drier cake to get the best texture for cake pops (because it will be mixed with frosting). Well this was just a huge mess from the start because dry cake is gross.
