How To Make Cake Pop Dough

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Course Dessert

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Spoon
  • Whisk

Ingredients
  

  • Pre-baked Cake
  • 2 tbsp water

Instructions
 

Option 1: Food Processor

  • Break up large chunks of pre baked cake or cake scraps. 
  • Start blending on the thick setting and low speed for about 1-2 mins. Stir the cake to make sure the large pieces are broken up.
  • Change the setting to thin and the speed to high.
  • Mix for 1 min and stir.
  • Pulse a few times to really break up the cake.
  • Add 1 tbsp of water, mix on thin and let it go for about 2-3 mins. You will see the cake crumbs begin to look like a tornado. 
  • Add one more tbsp of water and hold the top cover.
  • Mix on thin setting/high speed for about 30-45 seconds.
  • The cake will form a dough.

Option 2

  • Break up the cake into crumbs using a whisk or large spoon. Add a small spoonful of icing and mix for several mins until it forms a dough. 

Notes

The ending result:
Both options form a cake pop dough.
The food processor option will have a much nicer crumb and hold its shape more than the icing version.
