Our cake pop ideas
In this category you will find recipes for different occasions. Our basic Cake pops recipe can be varied endlessly with the colours and decorations of your choice. The Cake pops with chocolate chips are the classic for every chocolate lover. And in autumn, the Halloween Cake Pops with Caramel and Chocolate add a deliciously spooky touch to your party table.
The principle is always the same: a baked cake is crumbled, mixed with a creamy binder to form a mouldable mixture, rolled into balls and then dipped in chocolate or Candy Melts. It is also a great way to use up leftover cake.
Tips for perfect cake pops
- Shape even balls and chill them well before putting them on the sticks.
- Dip the tip of each stick in melted chocolate first so that the ball holds better.
- The coating should be fluid but not too hot, otherwise the balls may fall apart.
- Stand the cake pops in a polystyrene block or a cake pop stand to let them set.
- Decorate with sprinkles, sugar pearls or chocolate drizzle while the coating is still wet.
Cake pops are ideal for baking with children: while shaping and decorating, little ones can let their imagination run free. Individually wrapped in small bags, they also make a charming homemade gift.
