Before we begin with the step by step recipe post on Cake Popsicles Tutorial; let me first tell you that is absolutely not necessary to make these cake pops recipe from scratch.

Oh yes, absolutely I believe the sky is the limit when it comes to creativity. You can make this for any occasion that you can think of like this

Easy No Bake Pop Tart Ice Cream Pie

You can coat the Cake Popsicles with a blue or pink colour and then decorate it with some baby shoes, napkins, diapers etc in place of hearts and bows that I have made.

Decorate the Cake Popsicles in dark chocolate and make a graduation hat, tie or just a rolled paper to indicate your certificate. Or check this pin from Pinterest; I loved the shirt pattern in this one.

Oh, how can I leave this occasion behind? You can customise the Cake Popsicles as per your birthday theme. I really loved these cute little animal farm themed popsicles; would work amazingly if you are planning for an animal theme party.

Homemade Cake Pops

Today, I have used my favourite Eggless Vanilla Cake as the base, Whipped Cream as the frosting, White Chocolate for coating and marzipan for decorating.

Pro Tip: For a whiter and smoother look trim the top and bottom crust of the cake. But if you are lazy just like I am and you are not making this for commercial purpose then just let it be. 😛

Start by adding little frosting at a time. The amount of frosting will depend upon the moistness of the cake. So you can always add more if needed but if you add way too much the cake would turn sticky and you won't be able to shape it.

Confetti Cake And Ice Cream Pops

For that, you will have to divide the cake batter evenly. I am using an ice-cream scoop for the same. I figured out that 3 scoops of cake batter worked just fine for me to get the height and width of the popsicle I needed.

Using a reference mould as your guide shape the cake batter to resemble the popsicles. (Refer video to get an idea on how I shaped my popsicles).

I made some bows and hearts using frangipane. The same icing that I used to make my Unicorn horns and ears in the Unicorn Cake that I had made.

Ice Cream Cake Pops Recipe

Melt some white chocolate using bain marie method. I have shared a detailed post on how to melt chocolate the right way. You can check that too it has lots of useful information shared.

You will observe that in just few seconds the chocolate will solidify. And before that happens you have to add the sprinkles if you are using any.

Or if you are decorating like I did then just allow the chocolate to solidify and then decorate your Cake Popsicles as needed.

Ice Cream Sandwich Cake Pops

1. Any type of cake will work here. Vanilla, Chocolate or Red Velvet Cake. Even cake from a box mix will also do. I have used my Eggless Vanilla Cake recipe. However, I have halved all the ingredients and baked it in a 6-inch cake. So for eg: If the recipe says 1.5 cups of flour I have used just 3/4 cups. Likewise halved all the ingredients.

2. I have used regular whipped cream frosting. Used 1/4 cup of whipping cream and 2 tbsp of icing sugar and some vanilla essence and whipped everything to get stiff peaks. Start by adding 1 tbsp of frosting at a time to the cake crumbs to get it into a dough. A little goes a long way.

3. One mistake that I did was I just melted 200gms of chocolate to dip our popsicle into it. But later on, I realised that it was not enough to cover my large popsicle and hence you see that it is not all smooth. I mean not the way I wanted. So the next time I must remember to use 400 gms of melted chocolate for the same. You guys also enough chocolate to cover your popsicle in one go.

4. Since the Cake Popsicle is really cold; the chocolate coat on it will solidify in few seconds. So if you are planning to add sprinkles to it then do it immediately.

How

If you are someone who loves Choco-Bar icecream then you would definitely love this too. That is because the chocolate coating on top cracks exactly like the way an ice-cream does.

IF you would want to make this Cake Popsicles for a commercial order then I would highy recommend you to buy a popsicle mould for smoother and neater finish.

Birthday Cake Ice Cream Pops...

But if you just want to try your hands on these trending Popsicles just for a time then definitely follow these steps.Cakesicles are a fun twist on a traditional cake pop. Crafted in popsicle molds, cakesicles are an easy-to-make version of the ever-popular treat with a chocolate shell surrounding a blend of cake and frosting.

If you have ever struggled to dip a cake pop or had them crack or fall off the stick, you are going to be so happy to discover the cakesicle.

Unlike a cake pop, which is made by rolling a cake and frosting combo into a ball (or another shape) and then dipping it in chocolate or candy melts, a cakesicle is created by painting the chocolate into a popsicle mold, then filling the hardened candy shell with the cake/frosting mixture.

Ice Cream Cake Pop How To

The candy shell is thick enough that it won't crack but thin enough to bite into. It's also smooth and shiny and perfectly shaped.

Be sure to watch the How to make Cakesicles Video. If it's not shown below it will be either at the top of the post or in the sidebar.

In this tutorial, I will show you how to make cakesicles using white chocolate or white candy melts. You can use the technique to create dark or milk chocolate cakesicles too.

You can simply add a drizzle of chocolate or colored candy melts to add a festive touch. Christmas cakesicles drizzled with red and green candy melts or birthday cakesicles topped with rainbow sprinkles make fun desserts, party favors, or gifts.

You'll notice in the recipe and video that I didn't add oil to the cake mix. I wanted to experiment with this, as so many people complain about
