Starbucks Cake Pop Recipe: An Incredible Ultimate Guide

  • Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

Scale

1. 1 box of cake mix (any flavor)
2. 3 large eggs
3. 1 cup of water
4. 1/3 cup of vegetable oil
5. 1 cup of frosting (store-bought or homemade)
6. 12 ounces of chocolate melting wafers (white, milk, or dark chocolate)
7. Sprinkles or other decorations (optional)
8. Lollipop sticks or cake pop sticks

Instructions

Follow these steps to create delightful Starbucks cake pops:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
2. Mix the Cake Batter: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Mix until smooth and pour into the prepared baking pan.
3. Bake the Cake: Bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
4. Cool the Cake: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
5. Crumble the Cake: Once the cake is completely cool, crumble it into a large bowl using your hands.
6. Add Frosting: Mix in one cup of frosting with the crumbled cake. Stir until fully combined and the mixture holds together.
7. Form the Cake Balls: Using your hands, roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
8. Chill the Cake Balls: Cover the baking sheet and place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the cake balls to firm up.
9. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate wafers in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until completely melted.
10. Insert Sticks: Remove the chilled cake balls from the refrigerator. Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate and insert it halfway into a cake ball.
11. Coat the Cake Pops: Dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Tap to remove excess chocolate.
12. Decorate: Before the chocolate sets, add sprinkles or other decorations if desired.
13. Set the Cake Pops: Place the cake pops upright in a block of Styrofoam or a cake pop stand to allow the chocolate to harden completely.
14. Enjoy: Once the chocolate is set, your Starbucks cake pops are ready to serve!

These clear steps will guide you through creating your own incredible cake pops, reminiscent of those from Starbucks.
