How To Make Cake Pops (and keep cake pops on the stick)

August 5, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hey friends! Remember I talked about making birthday cake pops on Monday? I hadn’t made cake pops in quite some time and forgot what kind of work goes into them, so I decided that I would re-do a post I did over 3 years ago (before I even had a fancy camera!).

Hopefully this solves some of the mysteries behind how to make cake pops. And how to keep cake pops on the stick! (<-the struggle is real.)
