How to make cake pops!

June 8, 2014 by modestmunchies 2 Comments

Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

I was approached recently to do a cake pop demo for the local mosque’s Family Fun Day fundraiser. I accepted and a few days later got hit with the worst flu I’ve ever had. Alhumdulillah I’m much better. I thought it would be a nice idea to create a tutorial for the blog as well as an extra visual reference for anyone who needs one after the demonstration.

Notes

How to make cake pop mixture
Standard cake pop
Bake a cake. You can use a box mix or your favourite easy recipe.
Once cooled crumble the cake and add frosting.
You’ll need approximately 1/3 cup of frosting per 3 cup of crumbed cake.
Remember this could vary greatly depending on the type of cake and it’s moistness. Add a little frosting at a time until you get a moist mouldable mixture that will hold shape.
Oreo cake pop truffle recipe
400g Oreos
250g softened cream cheese
Crush your oreos until they're fine crumbs. Add in your cream cheese and mix extremely well. Roll into balls.
Cake pop baking mould
Use your favourite moist cake/cupcake recipe. Fill the mixture into the bottom rounds of the pan. Keep an eye on them baking, these will bake a lot quicker than normal cupcakes.
Decoration ideas
-fondant decorations
-coloured sugar (simply mix food colouring with sugar and let dry)
-extra chocolate (or candy melts)
-miniature candies
-sprinkles
-food colouring pens

    These look great and I’m glad to hear that your demo went well Alhumdullilah 🙂 I made cake pops for Zuni’s birthday party last month and it really was a disaster. The cake portion kept falling off the sticks and the chocolate that I used kept cracking after setting. Next time inshAllah I’ll use your tips to ensure a better outcome 🙂

      I hear a lot of people saying that. Did you freeze them in between the different stages? Also sometimes it could mean too much or too little frosting. I have trouble too sometimes. They are so fidgety and time consuming.
