Introduction: Heart in Heart Cake Pops

Cute two heart cakes in one pop...

Step 1: Step 1

Ingredients

White Vanilla Cake – One 8” Cake


Heavy Whipping Cream – 4 Tbsp or as needed (Not whipped cream)


White Chocolate Blanco Candy Melts (I used Wilton)

Red Food Color - Few Drops


Veg Shortening or Flavorless Cooking Oil


Pop Sticks or Wooden sticks


Sprinkles to Decorate

Method
•Crumble the cake without any big lumps.
•Add whipping cream to the crumb cake and make it moist to roll shapes.
•Don't add too much cream, able to hold shapes thats it (Pic 1).
•Line a tray with parchment/wax paper and make shapes using cookie cutter.
•I have made small n medium heart shapes to stack one over another (Pic 2).

Step 2: Step 2

•Freeze it at least 2hrs or overnight (Pic 5).
•Take the candy melts in a heat proof safe bowl, using double boiler method(Steam melt) or over boiling water melt the candies (Pic 3).
•Now add Oil/vegetable shortening (I used both), food color n bring to dropping consistency (Pic 4).
•These melted candies dry out soon, so melt in batches/small quantity.
•Apply melted candy at the back of small heart shaped cake n press it over the big one (Pic 6).
•You can make single layer cake too.

Step 3:

•Dip the stick in melted candy and insert it gently in to the heart cakes (Pic 7).
•Insert the sticks half way through.
•Dip the whole cake in to the candy melts with a help of spoon lift it up and tap gently to remove excess (Pic 8).
•Use some sprinkles n decorate the cake pops.
•Use any thermocoal or whatever available at home to place the cake pops(Pic 9).
•It will dry out in another 3-5mins.
•After dipping n drying out all cake pops, I decorated with colorful sprinkles.
•If doing so apply some same candy melt to the back of each sprinkle n place it over the cake pops (Pic 10).

Step 4:

Decorate it to your creativity.
Note:
1.You may need to sprinkle whipping cream when you feel the cake dried out while making shapes.
2.The shaped cakes should not melt at any time.
3.As a beginner you can take few at a time from freezer and dip it.
4.The cake pops once done n dried, refrigerate it to avoid the inner cake melting and coming separately from stick.
