Happy Vasakhi to all the Sikhs around the World! I thought I would share with you these Khalsa Cake Pops that I made for my 3 year old son to share with his friends and teachers at school 🙂 They were a hit…..His teacher wrote me a thank-you note expressing how much the children “loved” learning about a different culture. If you are wondering how I made the pops…….this is the baking tray that I used. There are other ways of making these pops without the tray but it requires you to crumble up the tray of cake and mix with frosting which tremendously increases the amount of sugar. I have decorated these pops in Khalsa colors which are blue & orange using sprinkles and a writing gel.

Transfer to cake pop baking pan & bake for 25 minutes.
Remove cake into a large container to cool; pour more mixture into pan and continue to cook until mixture is finished (approximately 42 pops)

dip end of lollipop stick into melted candy and stick into cake “ball” to form a pop

Place storage container in refrigerator for 15 minutes to harden the candy so that the cake sticks to the lollipop sticks.
Re-heat your candy melts until soft and then dip the 1/2 the cake pop into the candy; add sprinkles or decorate as desired.
Cool the cake pops (when candy is hard) by putting the lollipop stick into the styrofoam block.
