Got leftover cake? Enjoyed right away or stored in the freezer for a later date, Leftover Cake Cake Balls are a handy and delicious way to repurpose leftover cake.
Leftover Cake Cake balls are a delicious way to make sure no scrumptious birthday cake goes to waste! Same cake flavor all rolled up and smothered in a chocolate coating. All you need is cake, your stand mixer, and a package of candy melts. Enjoy these cake bites now or store in the freezer for an emergency sweet tooth situation.
Vanilla cake, red velvet cake, birthday cake–these cake balls make leftovers new again. You can use cake pop sticks and turn them into cake pops, or eat them as is like we do. They have such a satisfying texture. Like little cake truffles. And the kids LOVE them.
The Ultimate Way To Use Up Leftover Cake, According To A Baker
Need a great cake recipe to bake for a special occasion? Try The Greatest Chocolate Cake recipe. Rich, moist chocolate cake with a decadent dark chocolate frosting–it’s the best you’ll ever eat!
Cakes with buttercream icing work best for this recipe, but you can do this with cream cheese frosting cakes as well. It’s just a little less sticky. As for cake, you can use from-scratch cakes, store-bought or box cake mix cakes. They’ll all be delicious!
Melting candy wafers usually takes 1 to 2 minutes. I recommend stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth. Be sure not to over-melt the candy coating. It will burn and become too thick to stir and coat the cake balls evenly.

Learn MoreI’ve never loved traditional birthday cake with frosting… however, since cake is a birthday party must-have (at least according to the rest of my family) I make several birthday cakes every year, complete with a fair amount of frosting!
Halloween Cake Pops
However, since I use at least 2 cake mixes (sometimes 3 or 4) and we only invite grandparents and aunts/uncles to our birthday parties, we end up with TONS of leftover cake.
If you’re looking for a super simple, super delicious way to use up any amount of extra cake and frosting, I have the perfect recipe!
NOTE: If you don’t have leftover cake, you could easily just bake a cake, frost it, and continue on with the steps below to make it into cake balls.
Cake Crumb Chocolate Chip Cookies
Take balls from freezer, carefully dip frozen balls into melted chocolate and then into sprinkles or topping of your choice (I usually only dip half the balls in the chocolate as it’s less messy!)
You can use ANY type of cake, ANY type of frosting, ANY type of chocolate coating, and ANY type of sprinkle or topping — the possibilities and flavor combos are endless!!
The kids LOVE cake balls (Dave and I do too!) just as much as they love birthday cake! So the fact that they get cake balls a couple days after their birthday party is practically like an “after party” for them!
Leftover Chocolate Cake Balls
This year, after James’ Bob the Builder birthday party, I made his leftover cake into cake balls, put them in the freezer, and used them for James’ birthday party with Dave’s family one week later. Everyone was thrilled with that version of “cake” for the party, and I didn’t have to make a 2nd birthday cake (plus, no wasted food!)
