Written by The cake pop, this innocent little ball of cake heaven was brought to America’s attention by the now famous blog, Bakerella. They have been spreading across the world and have taken up firm residence in South Africa.
They are not too difficult to make, providing you have patience and a steady hand if you want to bling them up a bit.
You can use pre-made cakes, icing and chocolate too, you don’t need to go the whole hog to make a cake pop.
The blending together of cake and icing into one little ball is a stroke of genius. After all what’s cake without icing?
- Break the cakes up
- Place in a mixer and break the up some more
- Add the icing and keep mixing
- Let is rest for a little while
- Roll the mixture up into equal sized little balls
- Melt a little of the chocolate
- Dip the end of the lollipop sticks in the chocolate
- Stick them into the cake balls
- Refrigerate until they set
- Melt the rest of the chocolate
- Coat the cake pops in the chocolate
- Stick into a Styrofoam block and refrigerate to set
