Cakes are a delicious idea for any party, event, or dinner, but sometimes they can be difficult to pass out to everyone. Cupcakes are an easy way to get a single serving, yet they can also be a bit messy. Thanks to the new market for molds made of silicone, it is now a breeze to put cake in the cute, single-serving form of a cake pop!
Unlike making them by hand, cake pops with mold units are simple to make and turn out great – so long as you know some tricks for making these beautiful treats. Let’s get started on how to make cake pops with a mold!
NOTE: This recipe uses about 1/3 of a box of cake mix in order to make a smaller batch of cake pops. If you would like to use the entire box, prepare the batter as instructed on the box, proceed with filling the mold and baking, and you will end up with about 60 cake pops or more.
How To Use A Silicone Cake Pop Moulder
Lightly oil the inside of the cake pop mold (top and bottom piece). This will make removing them easier later on. Place the bottom mold on a cookie sheet.
Fill each of the cavities of the mold with cake batter – leaving about 1 mm between the surface of the batter and the top of the mold (this is important so the cake pops don’t overflow when baking, and also so that they don’t end up flat). Cover with the top mold, making sure to press all parts of the molds together securely.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes. Stick a toothpick through a hole in the mold to determine if the cake pops are done. There is no need to open the mold to check. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Open the silicone mold and let cool another 5 to 10 minutes before removing the cake balls.

Melt a little bit of chocolate. Dip one end of each cake pop stick into the melted chocolate. Then insert it into the cake pop. Repeat with the rest. Place in a stand and refrigerate for 30 minutes to seal them together.
Melt the chocolate for the coating (you can use the microwave, mixing every 30 seconds so that it doesn’t over-cook. Or you can place a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water – double boiler style).
Coat the cake pops with the melted chocolate by swirling them in the chocolate and decorate with the sprinkles while they are still wet. Let the cake pops sit in a stand (we poked holes in an egg carton to use as a stand) to harden the coating at room temperature.

As you can see, while they might seem intimidating at first, it is not too difficult learning how to make cake pops with a mold. On the contrary, trying time and time again to mold your own shapes by hand is a much harder task.
Mastering these molds makes baking so much more enjoyable. The trick to perfection each time is simply to make sure those silicone molds are lightly oiled properly before the batter is added to them and securely fitted together when baking.
If they are not overfilled, then your little dollops of cake will bake into perfect spheres, ready to be dipped in whatever topping you choose. Try not to be hard on yourself if there is some cake baked in between the mold cavities; this is still a success and very easy to remove with a small knife once the cake pops have cooled.
Vanilla Cake Pops
Some popular flavor suggestions include a butter pecan cake with a smooth vanilla icing. Try a decadent rich chocolate with a dark chocolate dip or mix that chocolate concoction with coconut to create a German chocolate cake combination. Strawberry, vanilla, and lemon are all delicious choices, as are utilizing red velvet or yellow cakes with a variety of icings and sprinkles.

I have two favorite ways of protecting the cake pops while the candy is drying. 1. STYROFOAM: Using the same size lollipop stick as the cake pops, make holes a few inches apart in the styrofoam. This will make placing the wet cake pops easier then having to make holes while the cake pops are wet. 2. RICE: Pouring rice into a container that is as deep as the cake pops (with the sticks) and wide enough to hold several will keep cake pops from falling over while drying.
Melting pots from Wilton make candy making so easy. You can keep 1 or two colors warm at the same time. The insert comes out so you can also keep piping bags with melted candy warm.
CAKE BALLS (NO COATING): The cake mixture can be prepared a couple days in advance and kept in the refrigerator until ready to use. You can even form the cake balls a day ahead and let them chill in the refrigerator for easier dipping. If you want to prep your cake balls and freeze them, store them in a large freezer bag. They can be kept frozen up to 6 weeks. Let your cake balls come to room temperature before dipping. ***SEE BELOW WHY CAKE POPS CRACK***

COATED CAKE POPS OR CAKE BALLS: Dipped cake pops decorated with Candy Melts can be stored at room temperature for a week. If you use white or dark chocolate, store them in the refrigerator so the chocolate doesn’t melt.
FREEZING CAKE POPS: Once the cake pops are dry, place the decorated cake pops in a freezer safe zip top bag. They will stay fresh up to 6 weeks. When ready to use let them thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
Making cake pops or cake balls just got even easier! Instead of baking a cake, adding frosting to the crumbs, molding the mixture into balls….use a silicone cake pop mold! MAKES 72 1½ INCH CAKE POPS

If your candy shell is cracking, it’s mostly due to an extreme change in temperature (cold cake balls being dipped into hot candy). This can also happen with hot candy or chocolate being put into a cold refrigerator or freezer. To avoid cracking, let your cake balls warm up to room temperature a bit before dipping in warm candy or chocolate. Once dipped, let your cake pops sit at room temperature for 5 to 7 minutes before placing in the refrigerator or freezer so the candy has time to cool.
If your cake balls are falling off your treat stick, they could be too heavy due to size or adding too much frosting. To help ensure your cake balls stay, be sure to dip the stick in melted candy before inserting it into the cake ball. This hardened candy coating acts as a glue to hold the stick in place. If you think you’ve added too much frosting, add a little more cake to help even out the texture.
Melt candy as directed in the Cake Pop instructions, dip stick into the melted candy and insert into the donut hole. Let the candy harden.
Homemade Cake Pops
Dip the donut hole in melted candy, add toppings and place in a styrofoam board to harden or on a flat surface lined with parchment paper if laying them top side down.
Think outside of the box and be creative….anything that has an end that can be inserted will work. You could use a fork, appetizer pick, sucker stick, popsicle stick, pencil with a special cake pop insert or decorative sticks for each holiday.
