    Cake pops are the most delightful little treats, and are so so delicious! They're basically cake mixed with frosting, which is then rolled into little balls and coated with chocolate - YUM! Cake pops can seem intimidating at first, but I promise you they are one of the easiest things to make once you get a hang of it! In this video I'll be sharing all my tips and tricks to get perfect cake pops.

      I always do a second short freeze (15-20 min) after inserting a lollipop stick into each ball - this ensures that stick is “glued” in place and should eliminate any instances of sliding or spinning.

      Hi there! You can totally use normal chocolate I would just recommend thinning it out with a little bit of vegetable oil and if you want to go that extra mile then to temper the chocolate so you have a nice crack when you bite through your cake pop :)

    If the cake pop is cold and you dip it into chocolate. Won’t it make the chocolate break? I’ve had that problem before…what’s your thought?

    • @CakesbyMK
      @CakesbyMK  Před rokem +2

      Good question! So I've never had that problem before (I only get cracking when I accidentally drop a cake pop LOL), but I think it could be because the chocolate I dip my cake pops in isn't very hot, so the temperature difference between the cake pops and chocolate isn't as drastic compared to if the chocolate was very hot. I think the length of time the cake pops are chilled may also make a difference, especially if placed in the freezer. You don't want your cake pops to be frozen, but just cold, so maybe leaving it too long in the fridge/freezer may have an effect? The way I do my cake pops too (by placing the stick in all of them first) also means my cake pops usually sit for about 10 minutes at room temp before I dip them. Just some of my thoughts which I hope help in some way! :)

Do I just use 1 of the two 8" cakes for the quantity of frosting you have here or can I double the frosting to mix the two 8" cake? Also, can I use your red velvet and chocolate cake recipes for red velvet and chocolate cake pops?

      Hmm good question! I am not entirely sure to be honest but I imagine it must have something to do with the cake pops expanding once they heat up. I have read that rolling the cake balls too tightly can cause this to happen. Sorry I can't be of more help!

      check out sugar magic by cristina - She shares so much information about chocolate and dipping, etc. etc. Very very informative.

    I tried another recipe and I didn’t like those cake pops. There were overly sweet. I think I’ll try your recipe. Thank you

    I've never had any good results from dipping cold cake pops. They ALWAYS crack. So if anyone else has this ussue...dip yours from room temp and it won't crack
