2) Basic Birthday Cake Recipe (Egg whites separated recipe).
3) Cardamom Flavored Tea/Bakery Cake
4) Eggless Butterless Orange Tutti Frutti Cake
5) Chocolate Cake Recipe
Method
- Crumble the cake without any big lumps.
- Add cream to the crumb cake and make it moist to roll shapes.
- Don’t add too much cream, able to hold shapes that’s it (Pic 1).
- Line a tray with parchment/wax paper and make shapes using cookie cutter.
- I have made small and medium heart shapes to stack one over another (Pic 2).
- Freeze it at least 15 minutes or overnight (Pic 5).
- Take the candy melts in a heat proof safe bowl, using double boiler method (Steam melt) or directly over boiling water or in microwave melt the candies (Pic 3).
- Now add Oil/vegetable shortening (I used both), optional food color and bring to dropping consistency (Pic 4).
- These melted candies dry out soon, so melt in batches and use small quantity.
- Apply melted candy at the back of small heart shaped cake and press it over the big one (Pic 6).
- You can make single layer cake too.
- Dip the stick in melted candy and insert it gently in to the heart cakes (Pic 7).
- Insert the sticks half way through.
- Dip the whole cake in to the candy melts with a help of spoon lift it up and tap gently to remove excess (Pic 8).
- Use some sprinkles and decorate the cake pops.
- Use any thermocol or whatever available at home to place the cake pops (Pic 9), still I am comfortable with my idli pan :-).
- It will dry out in another 2-3 minutes.
- After dipping immediately add sprinklers or customize your cake pops as shown in step wise picture below.
- If dried out do apply some candy melt to the back of each sprinkle and place it over the cake pops (Pic 10).
- Decorate it to your creativity.

- You may need to sprinkle whipping cream when you feel the cake dried out while making shapes.
- The shaped cakes should not melt at any time.
- As a beginner you can take few at a time from freezer and dip it.
- If they are out in room temperature for a long time then shapes turn out messy so always dip firm cake pops in candy melts.
- The cake pops once done and dried, avoid exposing it to too hot temperature, you can refrigerate it in that case.
This was my daughter’s first pose for the blog 🙂
