Calories 139 kcal
- 1 box Funfetti cake mix
- ingredients listed on cake mix box usually eggs, oil, and water
- 1/2 cup vanilla frosting
- 35 mini cup cones
- 12 ounces vanilla almond bark
- 1/3 cup chocolate melting wafers
- 1/3 cup pink melting wafers
- 35 large round red or pink sprinkles
- rainbow sprinkles for decorating
Preheat the oven and bake the cake as directed on the box. Let it cool completely.
Crumble the cooled cake into a large bowl and mix with vanilla frosting until it forms a dough-like consistency.
Scoop into 2-tablespoon portions, roll into balls, and freeze for 30 minutes or until solid.
Working in batches of 5–6, dip the opening of each cone into melted candy melts and press a frozen cake ball firmly on top. Keep remaining cake balls in the freezer until ready to use.
Dip each attached cake ball into melted vanilla almond bark, let the excess drip off, and place upright to set.
Drizzle with melted chocolate or pink wafers, then top with rainbow sprinkles and a round red or pink sprinkle.
Let the decorations harden completely at room temperature or refrigerate briefly until firm.
- Store the finished cake pops upright in a cool, dry place for up to 2 days. Keep them out of direct sunlight or heat to prevent the coating from melting.
- For longer storage, place them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Bring to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
- You can freeze the undecorated cake balls (without cones or coating) for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge before assembling and dipping.
