The Frosting Recipe

One of the most important parts of making baseball cake pops is the frosting recipe. This will determine the flavor and texture of your cake pops, so it’s important to choose a recipe that you’ll love.

There are a few things to keep in mind when choosing a frosting recipe for your baseball cake pops. First, you’ll want to make sure that the recipe is easy to follow. There are a lot of recipes out there that can be confusing, so it’s important to find one that is straightforward.

You’ll also want to make sure that the frosting is tasty. There are a lot of different frosting recipes out there, so you’ll want to experiment until you find one that you really like. You may want to try a few different flavors before settling on one.

Finally, you’ll want to make sure that the frosting is easy to work with. If it’s too thin, it will run off of the cake pop. If it’s too thick, it will be difficult to spread evenly over the surface of the cake pop. You’ll want to find a recipe that is just right for your needs.

Assembling the Cake Pops

Start by baking your favorite cake recipe in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Allow the cake to cool completely before moving on to the next step.

Once the cake is cooled, use a fork to crumble it into fine crumbs. You should end up with about 4 cups of crumbs.

In a large bowl, mix together the crumbs, 3/4 cup of frosting, and 2 tablespoons of milk. Mix until well combined and the mixture is moist enough to hold together when formed into a ball.

Roll the mixture into 1 inch balls and place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for about 15 minutes, or until the cake balls are firm.

Meanwhile, melt the candy coating according to package directions. I like to use a disposable pastry bag for dipping so that I don’t have to worry about cleaning a messy bowl later. If you don’t have a pastry bag, you can use a spoon instead.

Remove the cake balls from the freezer and dip each one into the candy coating, being sure to tap off any excess before placing back on the wax paper lined cookie sheet. Allow the pops to set for about 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Decorating the Cake Pops

Use a toothpick or cake pop stick to dip the cake pop into the melted candy. Be sure to get an even coating of candy on the cake pop. You can also add sprinkles, nonpareils or other decorations to the cake pops at this time. Let the excess candy drip off of the cake pop and then place it on a piece of wax paper to set.

Tips and Tricks

Whether you’re throwing a birthday party baby shower or just a get-together to watch the big game these baseball cake pops are sure to be a hit! Not only are they super cute, but they’re also really easy to make. Here are a few tips and tricks to help you get started:

1. Start with a round cake. A 9-inch cake pan is the perfect size for this project.

2. Use a serrated knife to level off the top of the cake so that it’s nice and flat.

3. Crumble the cake into a large bowl.

4. Add frosting to the crumbled cake and mix everything together until it’s well combined. The amount of frosting you’ll need will depend on how moist you want your cake pops to be. Start with ½ cup and add more if needed.

5. shape the mixture into small balls, using about 2 tablespoons of mixture for each one.

6. Place the cake balls on a baking sheet lined with wax paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes so that they firm up.

7. Melt candy melts or chocolate chips in a bowl according to package directions. Dip each Cake pop into the melted chocolate, using a fork to turn it so that it’s evenly coated. Let any excess chocolate drip off before setting the pop back on the wax paper-lined baking sheet.

8 . Add sprinkles, if desired. Let the chocolate harden before serving or storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days
