I baked this Vegan Cake Pops for my friend’s dinner party last weekend. The cake stayed moist under the coating, and my niece loved them.
This Vegan Cake Pops Recipe combines simple vegan ingredients to create a sweet treat that’s both fun and satisfying. Whether for birthdays, holidays, or just a fun treat, these cake pops are easy to make and customize.
Fun and Easy Vegan Dessert
These cake pops are made from crumbled vegan cake mixed with frosting, shaped into balls, and coated in colorful vegan-friendly chocolate. They take approximately 1 hour to prepare and yield about 20 pops, making them an ideal dessert for gatherings.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups vegan cake crumbs (any flavor of your choice)
- 1/2 cup vegan frosting (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- Colorful sprinkles or toppings, for decoration
- 20 lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Prepare the Cake: Bake your favorite vegan cake according to the recipe or package instructions. Allow to cool completely, then crumble into a large bowl.
- Mix with Frosting: Add the vegan frosting to the cake crumbs and mix until well combined, forming a moldable dough.
- Shape Cake Pops: Take small amounts of the mixture and roll into balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Insert Sticks: Melt a small amount of the chocolate and dip one end of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate. Then insert the stick into the center of each cake ball. This helps to secure the cake pop. Freeze for about 30 minutes.
- Melt Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the vegan chocolate chips and coconut oil. Melt in increments of 30 seconds, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Coat Cake Pops: Dip each frozen cake pop into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing them back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Decorate: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle with colorful sprinkles or toppings. Allow the cake pops to set at room temperature or in the fridge.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate has hardened, serve the cake pops on a decorative stand or platter at your celebration.
