Happy Spring!
Here is how you make the cupcake pops!
For the Cupcake bites or Cupcake pops:
- You just bake one (1) box of cake box mix of any flavor you like - such as "Duncan Hines Red velvet" as instructed on the box
- Let the cake cool, once cooled you can just break the cake into pieces in a mixing bowl and then use a fork or your hands to mush the cake into crumbs... until its all little crumbles.
- Then mix it with 1 jar of store bought cupcake frosting ( my fave is Cream cheese)
- You can also use one cake recipe of your choice of flavor mixed with about 16 oz. of frosting recipe and it will create the same texture. I love red velvet mixed with cream cheese..lol.. this is the only time I will ever use a box mix and already pre-made frosting mixes! It makes a good cupcake pop! Go Bakerella! She is the queen who created this cupcake treat phenomena!
- Then scoop a spoonful of the mixture into your hands and roll the small amount of cake mixture into about a 1" inch ball.
- Then repeat for all of the cake mixture and then place in a lined baking pan and refrigerate the balls for about 20 minutes until firm.
- Then take out the cake balls and then press in into the mold tightly. It will look like a mini cupcake!
- Then gently peel out the cupcake mixture from the tip out of the mold. It will come out easily with this mold!
- Place the cupcake right side up and then refrigerate for about 30 minutes and then you can begin by dipping the bottom part of the cupcake and then insert a lollipop stick.
- Then place them stick up on the lined baking sheet until bottom chocolate is firm.
- Then once firm you can pick up by the lollipop stick handle and then dipping them into a different color like pink or purple.
- While the chocolate is still shiny make sure to gently sprinkle the top and place a Mini M&M or a Yogo as a topper! :)
- Then get a styrofoam block from Micheals and gently push the end of the lollipop stick into the styrofoam right side up to dry!
Color combinations I love for these cake pops are:
- Any pastel color like Pink, Baby blue, Mint green, Lavender with brown chocolate bottom
- White on top with Hot pink bottom
- Hot pink tops with brown bottom
- White chocolate top with Teal bottom :)
Here are cupcake bites with dark chocolate bottom and hot pink top with mini polka dot sprinkles and a brown mini M&M! Hope you enjoy!
