I always trim around my cakes. I never use the outside portion of the cake as it becomes hard and doesn't give the cake pop a smooth consistency once you blend the icing. Also I never use the exact amount of oil required for baking my cakes. Through trial and error I found my cake pops would leak oil if there was any slight hole in the melting chocolates once it hardened up. Plus your sticks will absorb the oil making your white cake pop sticks look yellow. You are going to get more oil from the icing you use to bind your cake pop dough. Just food for thought and many mess ups😉 I use a 1oz scooper to insure a consistent cake pop and roll the balls until there is no cracks in the cake dough. Sometimes you might have to add a little bit more icing to get that consistency. Once I have rolled out my cake balls I put them on a cookie sheet on parchment paper and stick them in the fridge for about 10 minutes. While my cake balls are in the fridge I get my melting chocolates ready. Once my melting chocolates are ready I will dip my sticks into the chocolate and insert them into my cake balls and let them set outside of the fridge because your cake ball will still be a little cold causing the melting chocolate to set without putting it back into the fridge. Before dipping I will make sure my melting chocolate is at room temperature before I dip my cake pops and use toothpick to puncture any air bubbles my cake pop will have. I use styrofoam because if you put your cake pops in at an angle, and you did not tap enough melting chocolate off then that chocolate will pull to the side and it will look messy. I hope this helps😉

I am only 12 and I am really interested in baking I have a kitchen aid and lots of your Wilton utensils and piping bags and most of your things. Your videos have helped me so much and I would just like to say thank you. My favourite thing to make is a layered rainbow cake❤️ can you please please make a video showing us how to make a coffee pecan cake. Thanks love you Wilton.❤️ by the way I am a viewer from Australia🇳🇿❤️🍿🍹🐾🎈

I've just recently got a facination about these. So much you can do with them. Lots of fun.

I have a cake pop maker. I used a double boiler to melt the candy melts with some organic coconut oil. Great results!

I love the marble technique! Great job!

Love Love this video and recipe. I found this video to be the most informative for cake pops. I made them for the first time after watching it and everyone loved them. A couple of them fell off the sticks so the next time I tried the frosting piped into the hole. FYI-this method works great as long as you pipe then stick the stick in before piping the next. I, without thinking, piped a few & the chocolate set before I could get the stick in. Fastest way would be to have someone else put the stick in as you pipe. Happy Baking!!

i love the marble technique nice job great job

I followed this EXACT- they turned out perfectly! You're awesome Des!

Pro tip (I’ve made at least 1,000 just this past month): use a cookie scoop/mini ice cream scoop to make the balls

Yes! Everything is in the description box! Thank you!!! 😃

A cookie scoop works great for consistent size and I freeze my pops for an hour before dipping and use a craft foam block to stick my pops in after dipping.

Wow! You have such a good way at explaining the process. I love the marble effect. If I would have known I could have make the cake balls like that, I would not have bought that expensive cake pop machine.

thanks for replying I like Wilton so much I like how you guys have lots of products to help baking easy

Excellent Job, on the Marble Technique Cake Pops, those were awesome, and the Chocolate Cake pops, were Excellent also

candy is so nice

BOOSH! I MADE IT EASY! Step 1: Eat a lollipop. Step 2: Keep and clean off the stick. Step 3: Get a cake. Step 4: Compress as much of the cake as you can into a small ball, and put it on the stick. Step 5: Smother the thing in chocolate syrup until the cake ball hardens. Step 6: Microwave it again for 1 minute.

wow that's so cool how you marbled it

Whenever I dip my cake pops in chocolate a few of them fall of the stick or fall apart. How can you prevent that? I love your videos!!

cake pops are so tasty

If you don't have a cake pop stand how do you store them?

They look so good 😱😱😱

I love all your videos 😀😀 I always watch them👌

I love the recipe cuz is easy

I like the way you explain desiree

Nice cake pops I liked it

Great job

Thank you I will try making cake pops

LOVE HOW YOU DO.......EVERTHING!!!!!!

Just to let some some people know...make sure your chocolate isnt hot when you get ready dip...or you cake pop would jus crumb into the chocolate mix if chocolate too hot

Do you refrigerate them after you put the chocolate candy melts or do you let them set out of the refrigerator? I find if I refrigerate then mmmmmmm when they come to room temp they have condensation and/or they have the shortening ooze out

How cool !! I love these..!!

I am actually making these today!

I love it!

I am going to try this recipe
