I had these for the first time at a dinner last week. They were festive,
delicious and just the right amount of dessert.

Recipe for Cake Ball Pops
This recipe for cake pops on a stick is adapted from one by
Wilton.
Cake pops are all the rage and they can be dressed up as elegantly as you
like for any occasion like bridal shower and wedding favors, or turned
into wacky
characters the kids will love. These can also be made with crumbled
cheesecake (minus the graham-cracker crust!). Just imagine one of these at
every child's
place for a kid's birthday party!
Prep Time: 2 hours
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 2 hours, 30 minutes
Yield: 18 Cake Ball Pops
Ingredients:
list of 7 items
. 1 (18-ounce) box cake mix of choice, baked in a 13x9-inch pan, cooled
and halved (freeze other half for next time)
. 1/2 cup creamy frosting of choice
. 1 (14-ounce) bag
White Candy Melts
. 18
lollipop sticks
. Candy Colors
. Colored sugars, pearls and other decorations
. Cake Pops Gift Box
(optional)
list end
Preparation:
list of 4 items
1. In a large bowl, crumble half of a 13x9-inch cake with the hands (use
gloves if you can't stand mess) until no large chunks remain. Add icing
and mix
with fingers until well combined. Using a cookie scoop, portion into 18
balls. Roll between the hands until round and smooth. Place on
parchment-lined
sheet pan and freeze until no longer sticky, but not rock hard, about 1
hour.
2. Melt Candy Melts according to package directions. Dip lollipop stick
ends into melted candy and insert into cake pops. Place back on
parchment-lined
tray and freeze for 1 hour to set the stick in the pop.
3. Add candy color to small amounts of melted chocolate and, working with
one pop at a time (leave the rest in the freezer), dip in melted chocolate
until
completely covered. Shake off excess. Immediately roll in sugars or place
decorations on. If chocolate dries too fast, you can use royal icing to
apply
decorations. Stick in a thick piece of Styrofoam to dry completely.
Proceed with remainder of pops.
4. If desired, place pops in a Cake Pops Gift Box or wrap in lollipop
papers and tie with a pretty ribbon.
