These fun little Vegan Cake Pops create balls of cake on a popsicle stick, coated in chocolate, and drizzled with sprinkles. This is the perfect party food! Cake balls are easily made dairy-free and vegan. This recipe even provides an option for gluten-free cake balls, too.
Vegan Cake Pops are like little inside-out cakes. That’s because the frosting is combined with cake crumbles to create balls. Then those balls are dipped in chocolate and covered with festive sprinkles! It’s a perfect party treat as you can change the sprinkles to match whatever you’re celebrating, be it a birthday party, Christmas party, or even Halloween parties.
You can find the full printable recipe, including ingredient quantities, below. But first, here are some explanations of ingredients and steps to help you make this recipe perfect every time.
Dairy Free Chocolate Cake
The first step with these vegan cake pops is to make this very simple cake. This is a cake recipe specifically made to be crumbled.
First, combine the flour, baking soda and powder, salt, and vegan butter in a food processor and pulse it to combine. Add a can of pumpkin purée along with water and pulse again until combined. This makes a thick batter.
Keep it simple by substituting a dairy-free and/or gluten-free cake mix. Simply add the pumpkin puree and water to the cake mix and stir to combine.

Use a spatula and spread the batter into a pan with a light coating of vegetable spray. Bake it for 35 minutes until it’s done.
To make it, use a mixer to blend the vegan butter until it’s creamy. Then, add the powdered sugar and mix on low until it’s all combined. Finally, add a little soy milk (or plant-based milk of your choice) to create a nice, spreadable texture.
Once the cake is cooled, tear it into pieces and transfer it to a large bowl. Use a spatula or your hands to break the baked cake into crumbs.
Cake Pop Recipe (better Than Starbucks!)
Stir in the frosting with the cake crumbs and mix it all together. As you can imagine, this step can get a little messy so I recommend using a spatula.
Use a cookie dough scoop to create approximately 1″ cake balls. (I kept the balls a little bit smaller than 1″ and was able to make 45 cake balls).
It’s time to decide where you will place the freshly-dipped cake balls. You can use a block of foam or a simple cardboard box.

I used a skewer to create holes in a cardboard box, making sure to keep those holes a couple of inches apart.
Unfortunately, Starbucks cake pops are not vegan. Both the cake portion and the candy coating contain animal products, like eggs and dairy.
It’s important to refrigerate the cake pops before dipping them to ensure they keep their shape. Otherwise, you’ll risk the cake pops falling apart as you invert them to dip into the melted chocolate.

Dipping the stick in melted chocolate before inserting it into the cake ball is a crucial step. The melted chocolate acts like glue as it dries, holding the cake pop in place firmly.
Properly store your cake pops and they can last in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
The weekend is coming. So kick back, make some vegan cake pops, and wait for the looks of delight from your family when they bite into these sweet balls of fun!
