  • 1 Cooling Rack
  • 1 set of cake pop moulds (makes 20)

Ingredients
  

For the Sponge

  • ½ teaspoon of baking powder
  • 80 g of butter
  • 65 g of caster sugar
  • 215 g of gluten free all-purpose flour
  • 120 g of honey
  • 85 ml of soya milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract optional

For the Decorations

  • 20 lollipop sticks
  • 70 g of gluten free chocolate
  • 50 g of gluten free mini Easter chocolate eggs

Instructions
 

Stage 1 – Making the Cake Pops

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan/ gas 4).
  • Place the dry ingredients (baking powder, caster sugar and flour) in a mixing bowl and ensure that they are evenly mixed together.
  • Melt the butter, soya milk, honey and vanilla extract in a boiling pot or in a microwave safe bowl until the whole mixture melts.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the mixing bowl making sure that the cake batter is thoroughly mixed.
  • Then add each egg separately to the mixing bowl mixing well. This will help aerate the batter making the sponge fluffier.
  • Pour the cake batter into your cake pop silicone moulds.
  • Once filled, quickly close the moulds together. Place the moulds on a baking tray.
  • Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes.
  • Check if the cake pops are fully cooked inside by placing a wooden pick/ cake tester into the middle of each. If they come out clean, then you are good to go onto the next step!
  • Let the cake pops in the moulds cool in the baking tray for about 5 minutes. Next transfer them to a cooling rack and leave them until they are fully cooled. For the best results, refrigerate the cake pops for a few hours to help them set.
  • Take the cake pops out of the moulds. Place the sticks into the middle of each cake pop. Add each cake pop to your stand.

Stage 2 – Decorating the Cake Pops

  • Melt the chocolate of your choice in a microwave safe bowl. Dip all the cake pops in the melted chocolate holding them by the sticks.
  • Place each cake pop back onto the stand to dry. Again, for the best results, refrigerate the cake pops for a few hours to help them set.
  • Decorate the chocolate coated cake pops with as many as mini Easter chocolate eggs as you desire.
  • Enjoy!
