Hint: use a toothpick or skewer to check the progress of the cakes pops.
Insert the skewer into the cake pops. When the toothpick/skewer is
coming out clean, the cake pops are ready.
• To remove the cake pops, always use a plastic or wooden spatula.
Never use a sharp or metal object, as this will damage the non-stick
coating of the baking plates.

There are two ways to prepare basic cake pops; an easy and quick way and
a more extensive way. Both are described below.
Ready-made cake mix
You can use a ready-made cake mix from the supermarket for preparing
the cake pops, such as neutral cake mix, chocolate cake mix, vanilla cake
mix, muffin mix etc. The dough should be prepared according to the
description on the packaging. Consequently, add the dough to a piping
bag and fill each mold with a tuft of dough. Not too full, the dough will
rise during the baking process! A general guideline that could be followed
is 3 to 5 minutes preparation time per batch of cake pops. As mentioned
before, you can use a toothpick or skewer to check the progress of the
cakes pops.
