FAQs
Can I use homemade cake instead of a box mix?
Yes, you can definitely use a homemade cake recipe in place of a boxed cake mix. Just ensure that the cake is moist and easy to crumble.
How long can I store the finished cake pops?
Once decorated, cake pops can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Can I freeze cake pops after decorating them?
It’s not recommended to freeze cake pops after they’ve been coated in candy melts, as the candy can crack when it thaws.
What can I do if my candy melts are too thick?
If your candy melts are too thick, you can thin them out by adding a little bit of vegetable shortening or coconut oil to achieve a smoother consistency.
What’s the best way to display cake pops?
A block of Styrofoam or a special cake pop stand works best for displaying your cake pops while they dry and during serving.
