Ingredients You'll Need For This Recipe:
This post contains affiliate links.
- 2 Packages CandiQuik
- 1 Box Cake Mix
- ½ cup Frosting
- Lollipop Sticks
- Sprinkles (optional)
- Wilton Cake Pop Stand (optional)
Bake a Cake:
Bake the cake according to the directions on the box. Easy Peasy! Especially when you have your daughter make it for you!
She even got to lick the spoon as her reward! That was her bargaining tool! LOL!
To save the cake pop stand from drips, lay a piece of wax paper or parchment paper over the stand. Use a pair of scissors to cut slits on the top and then poke through where the holes are with a toothpick.
Cake Pops:
After the cake has cooled, crumble the cake into a large bowl. Add frosting and mix thoroughly.
Chill the mixture for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Roll the mixture into 1" size balls and insert a lollipop stick into each ball.
Dip the cake pops in melted CandiQuik Chocolate and let the extra drip off.
Decorate Cake pops as desired with icing and/or sprinkles.
Wasn't that easy? They do take a bit longer than a cupcake to make but the effort is definitely worth it because they are delicious!

Our Baking Essential List
- We use Glass Baking Dishes for baking casseroles. I especially like the dishes with lids because leftovers can be transferred straight to the fridge.
- Silicone Kitchenware is my favorite because they don't scratch my cookware and is easy to clean!
- A Glass Cutting Board is a must to prepare all of those ingredients. We even keep ours on our counter at all times.
- This Knife Set will also become your favorite! The knives cut beautifully, and the hollow design prevents food from sticking to the blade.
