Homemade cake pops (no cake mix!) are perfect for a special occasion.
Ingredients
1 Baby Blue Cake
1 batch Baby Blue Buttercream
~50 6-inch lollipop sticks
32 ounces white chocolate, roughly chopped
½ cup blue sprinkles
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside
Break cake into pieces and place in a large bowl; crumble cake into small crumbs with fingers
Add buttercream to cake and mix with a spoon until all cake crumbs are coated
Use a medium cookie dough scoop or large spoon to scoop balls of dough onto wax paper
Use your hands to roll the cake scoops into balls
Cover with another sheet of wax paper and place in freezer for at least two hours
Prepare another baking sheet with wax paper for finished pops
Once cake balls are frozen, you can make them into pops
Put white chocolate in a heat-safe bowl and place in over a pot of simmering water; stir chocolate constantly
until melted (you can also melt the white chocolate in the microwave)
Remove balls from freezer; dip the top of each lollipop stick about ⅓ of an inch into the white chocolate and immediately press into cake ball two thirds of the way through
Once complete, dip each cake pop, one at a time, into white chocolate; lightly tap off excess chocolate and place cake pop on wax paper; decorate with sprinkles immediately before chocolate hardens
Repeat until all cake pops are dipped and decorated
Allow to cool and for chocolate to harden before serving
