Cooking method

  • Recently I discovered this sweet miracle for myself. Here in America cake pops gained the same popularity as muffins, cakes and pies. Very often they decorate festive dessert tables, and also perfectly complement the design of a wedding cake. And the most attractive feature of this yummy, in my opinion, is the simplicity of execution and the ability to create this miracle with children!
  • It is enough to look at the photos to fall in love with these balls and make a decision to immediately create something like that ... Moreover, every pastry chef has scraps of biscuit and remains of cream in the refrigerator.
  • But the recipe itself ...
  • Cake pops
  • Bake your favorite sponge cake. Let it cool down. Then break and grind into crumbs. You can dispose of cake scraps in this way.
  • Prepare your favorite cream (or use leftovers). Add it to the chopped crust. Stir with your hands until smooth. Add on a spoon, gradually, so that there is no liquid mush.
  • Roll into balls from this dough (take 1 ball of dough with 1 small ice cream spoon). Place these balls on a baking sheet covered with foil or baking paper. Put all balls in the refrigerator for 2 hours or in the freezer for 20 minutes.
  • Prepare the glaze, cool. Dip each stick in the icing and insert into the ball, then dip each ball in the frosting, sprinkle with powder and insert into the foam. And so make all the balls. Put them in the refrigerator for a few hours.
  • The take pops are ready. You can wrap them in transparent paper and tie them with a beautiful ribbon, you can decorate your cake with them, or just please the kids with beautiful and bright sweets.
  • Cake balls

Agathy, do you have experience how to make such sweets? If so, can you tell me if it is possible to make such sweets on wooden skewers? I have no plastic ones. Only cocktail tubes and wooden skewers. And can the icing be replaced with melted chocolate?
Suslya
How interesting! and this turns out our cake "Potato" only on a stick, right?
Agathy
Husky, Yes, you can replace it with chocolate .. And what about the bars are not already sold in Russia? Only pure chocolate? In Ukraine, there has always been glaze in tiles, it is much cheaper than chocolate and melts perfectly, even white has always been there. Look here .. 🔗

As for sticks .. I have not tried planting on wooden ones, but I think it is possible. You have lollipop sticks, probably where they sell cocktail tubes .... Here, offhand, link .. maybe they supply retail ... 🔗

Suslya, yes, it's like our "potato" ...: nyam: Only the structure is tighter.
prascovia
Awesome! Well, you can also apply the molds for lollipops here! I'll be right tomorrow, or I'll try today! Wait with the report
Gaby
Zhdems Praskovya ...
Agathywhat beautiful yummy you brought, just class.
Agathy
Gaby, you can call me on "you" ...
Oh girls, I'm so glad you are interested in these balloons! I like them very much. For the kids, I think the most is for the holidays .. it is not necessary to make cakes.
prascovia, well done .. we will wait with the report! And I'm not at home now, in a few days I'll come and put mine too.
prascovia
Hello everyone! Well, I made these sweets! I tried it in the form for lollipops - nothing worked - it was possible to get it, everything crumbled. I also tried it in a silicone mold for chocolate - it turned out not bad. But the best and most convenient thing was to roll the balls myself.Sorry for the photo, the icing flowed in a hurry while the daughter was asleep.

Praskovya your Cake Pops are just awful, you did it.
prascovia
Thank you!
Husky
prascovia, beauty!!!! And it's good that experiments have already been carried out! And we know how not to do it !!
Thank you!! We must move along the trodden path !! Do you need to make a very steep dough so that the sticks do not push the potatoes?
prascovia
Haschka! Gabi! How pleased I am with your praise. When I dashed the sweets, I immediately sent them to the freezer. And about an hour later, I stuck wooden skewers into them. And then, when everything was already well frozen, she dipped it into melted chocolate.
Agathy
prascovia, what can I say - well done! : bravo: Cool dolls turned out! Of course, the easiest and most convenient way is to roll the balls, and then decorate them and attach various parts.
Zhivchik
Alenka, well, you can!
Beauty, and nothing more. No, it’s also delicious.
How did Mia react to them when she saw them? Do you like it?

prascovia
Well, you embarrassed me. I really liked the idea of ​​these candies. My daughter is very fond of Chupa-Chups, my hand does not rise often to buy from me, and so you can stick it in different shapes and with different tastes. Well, it's good that the candy is on a stick. And can you tell me the recipe for the glaze that would cover the candy like a shell, I have already tried chocolate.
Crumb
Oh yeah prascovyushka, oh yes, a craftswoman !!! Bravo !!!
Vitalinka
Agathy, very interesting cakes. For children's parties, it's just a godsend and beautiful and tasty!
Prascovia, what's the beautiful!
Husky
Well, today I tried to make potatoes on sticks. Just mind, don't laugh at my chopsticks. So far, I have no others. Covers with chocolate according to ours and chocolate icing according to imported

Lisss's
husky, beauty!!!
prascovia
Haschka! Very nice! and what size did you get the sweets? And please give a glaze recipe
Husky
prascovia, 4cm in diameter. Weight with glaze 65g. I think that the potatoes themselves weigh 50 grams, the rest is chocolate.
And I didn't cook the icing. I also wrote that you consider it a chocolate icing, such colored tiles are sold. And here it is considered chocolate and this frosting in the form of different figures here.
As I understand it, in order to keep their shape, these sweets must be covered with something hard. I haven't thought of anything else yet.

prascovye pioneer hip-hip Hurray !!!
Hasochka, what kind of laughter are we talking about, if such beauty? !!! Girls, well done !!!
prascovia
tatulja12 Thank you!
Hasochka, everything is clear with the icing - we will paint the chocolate.
Agathy
husky, your balls are beautiful! It turned out very well!
Agathy
I show my cake pops ... These were the very first ones, so a little unsuccessful. I also covered with chocolate and I had it thick, from this the balls turned out to be curves. Under the butterflies, the cream shines through only in the photo, but in real life no one noticed.
On the first photo - still uncoated.

Suslya

Agathy
Suslya, cool, even baby dolls .. And what are the bedspreads? Chocolate?
Husky
And the sticks, sticks, where did you find it? This is a sore point for me !! Otherwise, you will have to buy chupa-chups (a smiley with a protruding tongue that says beeeeee) and collect sticks from them !!
Oh, I saw the sticks and completely forgot to say: "Very tempting candy on a stick came out !!"
Suslya
Thank you girls
On top of the chocolate, oh, and I was worn out with him a little bitch, tell me how to heat it? I put it on a water bath, it was heated with difficulty, as it turned into a homogeneous mass, I threw a piece of butter there ... I don't know why, but somewhere I heard something that was necessary and the chocolate turned into a solid lump! and at the same time I did not remove it from the stove, so as to somehow wriggle out, I threw the cream there. In general, it turned out to be a thick mass, which I almost forcibly smeared on the balls
And the stitches are skewers so long, I broke them in half.
Husky
Suslya, when your chocolate melted into a homogeneous mass, was it flowing? If so. why is there oil? I can assume that our "now" oil has sooooo much water !! And water is not suitable for kindling chocolate. He curls up from her (gathers into a ball). But basically, with the addition of cream, you got a full-fledged chocolate icing !!
And it seemed to me that you have white plastic sticks.
Alesja
Agathy what a good idea with these bobbleheads, that is, pop music !!!
Girls, they are so cool with you !!! My eldest has a birthday soon, I will definitely do it for the children !! Who did, after all, tell me how to cover them so that there are fewer humps?

either we have such chocolate here or I also have troubles with this chocolate. I also tried to make these pops - and nothing, especially just mixing the biscuit with cream was given. and even putting it on the sticks went well (like Suslya, I used wooden skewers, broke them into 3 parts). But it didn't work to cover it with chocolate, I smeared it hand-to-hand. A thick, completely non-flowing mass. Soft, of course, but didn't want to leak. Only it was perfectly smeared. And after all, she seemed to do everything as it should be - in a water bath, etc. And she also added oil, although after adding oil it became possible at least to smear it with a fairly thin layer, and so ...
Agathy
Girls from Ukraine, like this kind of glaze is needed. 🔗
Alesja
Girls, today I was having fun !!!!
I made such pops)))) Inside the potatoes, doused them with ganache, it is convenient to apply, but it does not freeze as firmly as chocolate.
The first photo is the bride and groom (she covered them with a thin layer of mastic, behind them there are 3 folds on their heads, I tried to smooth them out as best as possible))))
My daughter was delighted !!!

Another smiley that shoots yourself on the spot !!
Alesja79, I'm ready to shoot myself out of envy !! No, how do you get the lines coming out so neatly, even on a small round surface? Do you have that hands sooooooo not trembling? Or do you know what a tricky move? Share?

Husky, well, I made laugh !!! Hands do not seem to tremble ... when I draw, my right elbow is on a support (on the table).
rinishek
Alesya! well, if the husky speaks THAT, then I generally ... sit with a dropped jaw ...
I do not believe that an ordinary person can do this ... not prof. artist ... or professional?

prascovia
Virgin! I dipped these priests in hot chocolate, having previously stuck a stick in them, and freezing them well in the freezer. Ducked and twisted right and left until the chocolate grabbed.
rinishek
So we also tried Susley ... to dunk ... but it did not dunk, our chocolate turned out to be somehow cracked - it didn’t want to melt

When I "dunked" - I got pop in this thick mass and got stuck, as in quicksand.

Or look for another chocolate (it seems like I had a crown) or another glaze. Can you really try protein?
Agathy
Alesja79, what wonderful faces turned out !!! And how neatly drawn! You are very clever! I am fascinated by your abilities. Well done!

And I'll put mine out today, too. Did it for Thanksgiving.

Precisely, the crooked pops were barely tossing and turning and slipping off the sticks, so their chocolate was tightening, and I also had a Crown, I probably should try it with another chocolate. And yet, girls, did not your pops melt after standing on the table? my current lived in the refrigerator, I kept a couple for the sample on the table and they became soft and began to slide off the sticks.
Alesja
Suslya , my pops didn't melt. Although they did not have to stand for more than 1 hour, a child came from school and the pops were sentenced
Maybe you had too soft filling?
prascovia
They stood in my closet for 3 days - they behaved well!
