Equipment

  • 20 lollipop sticks

Ingredients

  • 350 g sponge cake (any)
  • approx. 175 g cream cheese
  • 200 g chocolate (any)

Instructions

  • Crush sponge cake into fine crumbs.
  • Gradually add cream cheese in portions and knead to form a malleable mass.
  • Form 20 small balls from the sponge mixture and chill them for about 15 minutes.
  • Melt chocolate over hot water bath.
  • Dip one end of lollipop sticks about 1 cm deep into the melted chocolate and stick each end into a sponge ball. Refrigerate the balls again for about 20 minutes.
  • Dip the sponge balls into the melted chocolate, letting the excess chocolate drip off as you do so, decorate the cake pops as desired, and refrigerate until the chocolate has set.

Notes

  • Depending on how moist or dry the sponge cake is, you may need less or more cream cheese than the recipe calls for. The mixture of sponge cake and cream cheese must be easy to shape, not dry and not too moist, so that you can easily form balls from it that will keep their shape and not fall apart.
  • Instead of cream cheese, you can make the cake pops with any other cream.
  • To glaze the balls, you can use chocolate glaze instead of chocolate.
