Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Cake Base
  • 2 cups vanilla cake crumbs Use day-old cake for easier crumbling.
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese frosting Adds tang and holds shape.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
Coating and Decoration
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips or candy melts Candy melts give smooth color.
  • 1 to 2 tsp vegetable oil Add if the chocolate looks thick.
  • assorted sprinkles, edible glitter, or colored sugar For decorating.
  • 20 to 24 pieces lollipop sticks For assembling the pops.
  • optional mini Easter egg decorations

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Crumble the cake into fine pieces in a large bowl until the texture looks like wet sand.
  2. Add half the frosting and the vanilla extract, then mix. If sticky but moldable, stop; otherwise, add the remaining frosting if too dry.
  3. Scoop roughly 2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll into an oval egg shape. Place on a parchment-lined sheet.
  4. Insert each lollipop stick halfway into the cake egg and press gently to secure.
Coating
  1. Melt the white chocolate or candy melts in 20-30 second bursts, stirring until smooth. Add vegetable oil if needed.
  2. Dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate until fully coated, then tap off the excess to achieve a glossy finish.
  3. Decorate immediately with sprinkles or mini eggs before the chocolate sets.
Chilling and Serving
  1. Stand the pops upright in a styrofoam block or cup and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes until the coating hardens.
  2. Serve within a day or two, stored in an airtight container in the fridge.

Notes

Place a paper towel under the storage container to catch any melting decorations. For a bright twist, fold in 1 tsp lemon zest into the mixture.
