Here's Part 2 where I show you how to decorate and dip your cake pops! czcams.com/video/A1QMAtiD5SQ/video.html
Finally someone who really goes in detail about making cake pops. I can never get the right shape, and I never get the coding part right. Thanks for the info, and can’t wait for the 2nd part of making cake pops. 👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
🥰💕 so glad you enjoyed it!!
Such a clear how to video with lovely filming.
Thank you!! I’ve really been trying to work on making the filming clearer. 🥰💕
Absolutely amazing I was trying to find a part two would love to see how you dip cake sickles how long do they stay good for in the freezer and what is there a shelflife after and also after you did the initial freeze so you can stack them in the containers did you put them back in the freezer? thank you so much for your absolutely amazing tutorials
You are fantabulous! I am learning so much from your channel. Cake pops are not a big thing in Oz yet... I should help make them a thing. I always freeze my cake scraps, because I hate waste too. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see followup vid 🤩
Yes!! Start making it a trend over there! I find it comes and goes here. They were huge, then not as big and then cakesicles came along. 🥰
Thank you so much for this video!! I normally do custom cookies but have been loving cake pops bc they are so much quicker to make!
So so true!! You are welcome :)
great tips! waiting for the decorating video.
Thank you!! 🥰💕
GOOD AFTERNOON PRAYING ALL IS WELL
I THANK U FOR SHARING YOUR DELICIOUS RECIPES
I LOVE TO MAKE CAKES BAKEING IS A SPECIAL GIFT FOR ME MY MOM BAKE A LOT OF CAKES I LEARN FROM HER WHEN I'M SAD ,AND CRYING MISSING MY MOM I BAKE
I HAVE SOME ORDERS WANTSVTO HAVE MORE SO I'M PUSHING UP MY FROSTING TO BE THE BEST SO I THANK U
U BE BLESS AND ENJOY THE REST OF YOUR BLESS DAY 🙌 🙏
Yes watching for the third time, and I can't wait to make some for Christmas ⛄⛄🎄🎄⛄⛄🎄🎄
ooooo I am getting excited for the Christmas baking.
Girl I can't wait... I'm so excited for it. That is my biggest thing for the year... Love it...
Thank you for the detailed video. In your next video could you please discuss how condensation could affect the cake pops after dipping? Thanks so much!
Sure can!
How long do you store them to maintain their taste and flavor integrity when selling them? For example would you sell cake pops that you've stored for 1 month, 2 months etc in the freezer?
This video helped so much, is part 2 up in desperate need on how to dethaw the cake pops
To thaw them out all you need to do is take out the number of cake pops you would like to decorate and then leave them in a container sealed for about 30 minutes. Then you're good to go!
Yes I would love a video on how you decorate them.
💕🥰 my son has a finding Nemo birthday coming up so I’m thinking of using some of these!
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe that would be amazing! New to all of this baking stuff and love watching your videos.
excellent upload Sweet Dreams Bake Shoppe. I shattered the thumbs up on your video. Continue to keep up the really good work.
Thank you!
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe No problem at all, always happy to support my fellow content creators. I am looking forward to improving on my own current video format I have uploaded and, in the future, trying to create content as good as yours in the long-term.
Loved it, doesn't look so scary now!
Oh good!! 🥰💕
I absolutely love your videos!
Question: I should always freeze cakesicles prior to dipping into chocolate, right? How about once frozen and removing out the freezer, do I let them sit prior to dipping?
Thank you! I can't find the video on the next step on how I would fill it over with chocolate
Me and my mom love your videos 😃
So glad you’re enjoying my them, Ambreen! 🥰💕
Lifesaver!!!
Yes! The pressure applied while forming a cakepop is an acquired skill!!!
Could you explain what you mean when you say stock order for your at home bakery? Does that mean you have some made and ready to pick up anytime?
Yes! For example, for macarons, that month I may only have a few select flavours ready on the go for pickup and it would be slightly cheaper since it's the flavour available for that month that I don't have to make custom.
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe wow! I’ve never even thought of doing that!!
Love this!
Thank you for sharing ; how long do you keep it in the freezer?
I love your videos…. I accidentally added more butter cream to my cake pop mixture what can I do to fix this?
Thank you for this informative video, you cleared some things up for me. After watching this video, I went looking for how you coat the cake pops video, but have not been able to find it. Would you please send me a link so I can follow your directions. Thank you so much!
Oh sorry, Suzie! I have a few cake pop videos where I show you how to dip them :)
I love it !!!! I have a question tho .So how long can I let the cakesicles that aren’t dipped in chocolate stay in the fridge for ?
In the fridge for about a week depending on what type of frosting/ganache you used.
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe what about the brand Betty Crocker butter cream ?how long would it last in the fridge ?
@@yk.daqueen1808 a while! Canned frostings have a pretty long shelf life
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe you are amazing , so I made mini geo piñata cakes ,cakesicles and piñata cake /breakable heart .If I want to eat them for tomorrow do I put them in the fridge or freezer ?
Thanks for sharing
Nice idea
How do you prevent the ball shaped ones from breaking / cracking apart when you do try to put the stick in ? Especially since they are rolled so nice tight they look great now..
I have a trick that I will show you in a follow up video! It also depends on the original mixture. If it’s solid, but moist the stick will pierce through AND stick size matters!!
Hello! Im hosting an Easter baby shower. Can I make it in advance in egg shape? Thanks!
Hi, I have some chocolate cake tops in my fridge that are about a week old. Can I still use the scraps to make cake balls?
❤wonderful this great and Weldon 😢😮❤❤❤
Sugar cookie question: do you think you will make a video with your royal icing recipe? Also, do you have to let your outline dry first before flooding your cookie? Thank you so so much🥰
Hope you don't mind me answering. Don't let it dry. You want the flooding to blend with the outline. I sometimes use flood consistency to outline, if using too many colours to make med & flood of each, and let the outline sit for 30 seconds to firm a bit before flooding. Creates a nice barrier. Hope this helps.
I have a few videos on that! I personally don’t let it dry any more, but it’s all about the look that you want to achieve 🥰💕
How do you dip frozen cake pops, and prevent them from cracking?
How long can you store your cake pops in the freezer?
How long do they last? And do put them on top or in the freezer?
Hey can you please tell how long is the expiry date for frozen pops and can we freeze it with chocolate covered and how long
So the cake pops won't ever really go 'bad', you'll most likely have to look out or crystallization and freezer burn. I wouldn't freeze it with the chocolate on it because when the cake expands and contracts it can cause breakage in the chocolate.
Hi what size of ice cream scoop do you use?
Ah cake pops- my idea of hell lol -used to offer them early on in business, not anymore so time consuming and people were not willing to pay for the price they were worth 💜💜
My friend got rid of them at her bakery too. I need to get one of those multi ball rollers to speed things up
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe what is the "multi-ball roller?" do you have a link? would save me a lot of time!
Could you pls tell me how pure swiss meringue buttercream is made mine isn't pure white
You have to make sure to use a lower quality butter ( the expensive butter has a deeper gold color so make sure to use the cheap kind that’s lighter in color) you also have to make sure to whip it for longer🥰🥰
The butter makes the smbc slightly yellow so you can add a bit of violet colouring and it will become more white!
@@0089lolvss thanx a lot
@@minimallie6507 thanx
You can add color white then atiny bit of violet. Just a little bit. Mine turned grey 😂
Hi..
Can you tell me when we made and done with all decorations..where we save put in frige or outside?
If we put outside how many days can be consume..? Please my daughter birthday and i want to make if anyone know Please guide me.. thanks in advance
If they’re outside, they can easily be left for 2-3 days. I keep my in the fridge for a week and I’m totally fine once fully decorated.
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe so nice of you..
Giving me answer..i am very thankful 🙏☺
Love this video. Where can i buy the molds
Amazon!!
omg... thats why when I use buttercream for my cake pops, oil always show up out of no where!! thank you for the helpful video love! would you recommend baking the cake two days prior to making the cake pops so the cake is nice and dry?
Definitely though if you use fresh cake, you'll just notice you have to use less filling!
Ohh so thats why they did that good to know lol
hehe hope you've been successful since! :)
Hey, would you happen to know how long we can keep cakepops in the fridge and freezer for ? I’ve looked it up online before, but always get mixed answers.
I’ve done up to 3 months no problem, but you could probably even go longer since it’s not fresh cream or anything in these
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe would that happen to be 3 months in the freezer?
Btw, thank you for always replying when you get the chance. I am so glad to have found your channel! You’re so helpful! Your videos are a great reminder to not undersell yourself, and your cakes always come so beautiful!! ❤️
@@rosamoro8749 yes! In the freezer. The freezer literally freezes time in the baking world. Hehe. You are so welcome. Thank you for your encouragement and I’m glad you’re finding it useful 💕🥰
Was wondering is it possible for shipping purposes to freeze cake pops and cake sickles already decorated and packaged?
I wouldn't only because the expanding and contracting of the cake causes the chocolate to crack or sweat. Happy baking! :)
❤❤❤😊
❤️
🥰💕
What size scoop do you use?
Are you using a normal size Icecream scoop leveled off before you roll into balls.. Or are you using a minnie scoop?
Mini! The normal size is far too heavy for the stick 🥰💕
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe thank you
As an at home bakery that doesn't have a lot of clients, how long can these freeze for?
I would say you're still good to go at about the 3 month mark if you've placed them in the container properly :)
Do u use fresh(warm) cake?
How long can u store them if you mix in ganache?
Would dark chocolate ganache work the same as white chocolate ganache?
How much would u recommend mixing in?
And last question lol☺️....
How do u defrost them?
I always use OLD cake. I find it a little easier to work with and actually mix in flavours. In the freezer it will last up to 3 months. White chocolate will work just as well and in a future video I’m going to show you how to properly dip frozen ones! 💕
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe
Old room temp cake or chilled?
Great video! Your gloves looked very wet did you add Simple Syrup to help keep them moist?
No! That cake was SUPER moist.
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe wow that's amazing!! Do you have a vanilla and chocolate recipe on here? Because that looked so good!
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe or a recommendation on how to make them moist because my cakes are on the dryer side and I'm not proud of them like I would like to be
@@tessherbert7969 I always use vegetable oil in my cakes! I honestly can’t remember where I got my vanilla cake recipe from, but my chocolate cake is from glorious treats!
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe awesome ok thank you so much!
Great idea! However, how does the freezing affects the flavor and texture of the cake pops?
Because it’s such compounded cake mixed in with the buttercream I really don’t notice any difference in the flavour or texture. 💕🥰
That’s a great question, I didn’t think about that. 👍🏼👍🏼
Do tou have a good marble cake recipe
I don't actually--I should work on finding one!
sorry what does ganashe mean
Would the cake pop crack because it was previously frozen?
Only if you dip it from frozen! Let it rest in the fridge for a bit before dipping
Ah, thanks. I did that and they still managed to crack. I'll let them rest longer next time
How do you level your ice cream scoop?
Just scrape it off like you would when measuring flour 💕🥰
Putting the dough with ganache willnot get hard?
Nope! It'll stay relatively smooth and soft when you bite into the cake pop :)
Thank you
Sorry, one more question. What ratio of chocolate to heavy cream do you use for your ganache?
How long can u freeze these ????
Up to 3 months I would say :)
How many days we can store them
You would be fine for months in the freezer! 🥰💕
How long in freezer
It depends on when you're going to decorate them, but they can be frozen for up to 3 months with no issues or compromise in taste :)
Where is the follow up video please!
Here it is: czcams.com/video/A1QMAtiD5SQ/video.html
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe thank u!
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe i made all my cake pops today and decided to stick them and frost/decorate them so whats the best way to freeze fully finished cake pops??
Plz help

That’s what you call diabetes
I have only one negative critic to your videos, your voice in the beginning and throughout the video is awfully sqeeky and loud. Maybe time to invest on a better mic? Everytime i forget that and I have my headphones on and I click on your video my ears are bleeding and I get an heartattack 🤣 But otherwise, i like your videos!
Lol; yeah I have a mic that I have yet to figure out how to use properly so I will eventually
