How To Make Cocomelon Cake Pops

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F / 175 degrees C. Grease three, 6-inch cake pans with homemade cake release or non-stick baking spray and parchment paper.

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bang the pans on your counter a few times to release any air bubbles that might be trapped in the batter.

Bake for 30-33 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out with a few moist crumbs. Remove the pans from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes, then run a small offset spatula around the perimeter.

Carefully flip the layers out of their pans and place on a wire rack to finish cooling. Level 2 of the cake layers with a serrated knife once they’re fully cooled. Stack the three cake layers (without any frosting), making sure to have the untrimmed layer at the top.

While the cake layers bake and cool, make the vanilla buttercream frosting with either an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer.

If your frosting seems too thick after mixing your ingredients, add in additional cream (1 tablespoon at a time). Or if the frosting is too thin, add in more powdered sugar (quarter of a cup at a time).

Leave the remaining buttercream uncolored, cover it with a piece of plastic wrap to prevent a crust from forming, and set aside.

Stack and frost the cake layers on a greaseproof cake board. Use a dab of frosting to help stick the first cake layer to the board. Using the white frosting you set aside, spread an even layer of frosting between each cake layer using an offset spatula.

Smooth using an offset spatula and/or acetate sheet. Chill the cake in the fridge (20 minutes) or freezer (10 minutes) until the frosting is firm to the touch.

Chill the cake again in the fridge (30 minutes) or freezer (10 minutes) one more time until the frosting is completely firm to the touch.

Remove the cake from the fridge or freezer. Use a toothpick or scribe to lightly trace where you want to pipe the face and stripes.

Pipe dark green buttercream stripes up the side of the cake. I recommend starting at the back of the cake. It took me a few stripes to get the hang of it, and that way your best stripes will be in the front!

Then add the cute little face using the pink, white, red and black buttercream. Start by piping and smoothing a pink rectangle on front of the cake. Next pipe the white outline around it.

Use the black frosting to pipe on the eyes, nose and mouth. Use the white buttercream to add the accents, then pipe on the little red cheeks.

Next, pipe and smooth a mound of pink buttercream on top of the cake. Smooth the frosting using an acetate sheet or small offset spatula.

I would like to know how much shortening you would add to the buttercream frosting. I live in the south and want to make sure it doesn’t melt. Would you add the same amount as you do butter??

That's a great question! I would recommend swapping out half of the butter for hi-lo shortening to help make this frosting more stable in the heat. Hope that helps, happy baking!

This tutorial was super easy to follow! I didn’t make the cake and buttercream mentioned but I did the exact same design.
