Easter is known for lots of candy and desserts. You can change up your normal sweets by making Easter Cake Pops. The cake pops are covered in a purple candy coating and decorated with Spring themed sprinkles. Easter Cake Pops are a delicious fun dessert that is perfect for Spring and Easter.
If you don’t know what cake pops are, they are basically cake balls covered in a candy coating and served on sticks. To make Easter Cake Pops, you need to bake a cake and allow it to cool. Then you crumble the cake into fine crumbs and add in frosting. Form the mixture into balls and place in the fridge to chill for an hour. Then dip a lollipop stick into the melted wafers and insert it into the cake ball. Each ball gets fully dipped into the melted wafers. Before the candy coating hardens, decorate the cake pops with sprinkles. The Easter Cake Pops are a fun, kid friendly dessert to enjoy after egg hunting.
