If you want to explore other shapes, stick with cookie cutters that have a simple design. For fun shapes, you can easily use small cookie cutters, like hearts. I use a different technique than just rolling individual pops. My heart-shaped cake pops are covered in chocolate and sprinkles, with a luscious red velvet cake filling. Give me chocolates! Give me candies! Give me cookies! Give me these Valentine’s Day cake pops! And by sweet, I mean something I can most definitely eat. I really love getting something sweet for Valentine’s Day. Sprinkle the cake pops with the sprinkles of your choice, and then prop the lollipop sticks by using a glass or a cardboard box to allow the cake pops to fully set without touching.Take one little peek at these lovely little cake pops, and you’ll be instantly lovestruck!.Allow the excess melted chocolate to drip off of the cake pop, tapping gently to assist. Once the lollipop sticks are set with the almond bark, dip each cake pop into the almond bark to fully coat it.

Repeat this step with all of the cake balls, and then put the full baking sheet in the freezer to allow the almond bark to set for 15 minutes. Be sure it only goes through to the center. Dip one end of the lollipop stick into the melted almond bark, and then push it into the cake ball.Stir, and then continue heating in ten-second intervals, stirring in between, to make sure the almond bark is fully melted and smooth. Put the almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Roll each section of dough into a smooth ball, and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Scoop tablespoon-sized pieces of dough from the bowl of cake pop filling. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.Mix until the cake crumbles and frosting are well combined to create the cake pop filling. Stir 3 tablespoons of frosting into the cake crumbles.This should amount to 4 cups of cake crumbles. Be sure to crumble it enough to avoid any large chunks. Once the cake is fully cooled, crumble it into a large bowl.Add in the remaining 1 cup of powdered sugar and mix until a frosting forms. Add in 1 cup powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon of milk, and mix. In the bowl of stand mixer, mix the quarter-cup of softened butter. While the cake cools, make the frosting.
