Red Velvet Cake Pops

Print Recipe

Moist and decadent red velvet cake mixed with cream cheese frosting, shaped into bite-sized balls, coated in smooth chocolate, and served on sticks for a fun, portable dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box red velvet cake mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese frosting
  • 12 oz white chocolate or candy melts
  • Red or pink candy melts (optional, for decoration)
  • Sprinkles (optional)
  • 20–25 lollipop sticks

Instructions

  1. Bake the red velvet cake according to the package instructions. Allow it to cool completely.
  2. Crumble the cooled cake into a large bowl.
  3. Add cream cheese frosting to the crumbs and mix until the mixture holds together when pressed.
  4. Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1–1.5 inches in diameter, and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Insert a lollipop stick into each ball. Freeze for about 20–30 minutes to firm up.
  6. Melt the white chocolate or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
  7. Dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off. Optionally, drizzle with colored candy melts or add sprinkles before the coating sets.
  8. Place the coated pops upright in a styrofoam block or on parchment paper until fully set.

Notes

  • Make sure the cake is completely cool before crumbling to avoid melting the frosting.
  • Use a spoon to help coat the cake pops evenly in chocolate.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
