Thanks for teaching such an easy method. I was deterred making cakesicles watching other videos. Cover the mould with chocolate, refrigerate, press the crumbled cake into the mould, another layer of chocolate.... So time consuming. This is really easy
The chocolate we used here was Dr Oetker Fine Cooks White Chocolate however any chocolate should work. If you're melting the chocolate in a microwave, start with approx 40 seconds, stir well, then if there are still lumps of unmelted chocolate, put it back in the microwave in 10 second bursts so you don't overheat/burn the chocolate. The residual heat of the melted chocolate should melt any small lumps if you keep stirring.
Hi @elizautulo6862, Thanks for the question. There’s a link in the video description box to the cakesicle mould we used, if you click through that should hopefully give you any info you need. 🙂
I tried the cake recipe, but the batch did not come out smooth.. How long did you mix butter+sugar, and also when adding the flour? also, I use 320F (160C) for 20min and it was still liquidy
Thanks for your comment and sorry to hear the cake didn't work too well for you. Ovens can vary, so that could affect the timing so don't be afraid to leave the cake in the oven longer if it doesn't seem baked after the 20 mins. The best tip is to use a skewer/knife to test if the cake is done. When the cake is done, the skewer/knife will come out clean. Beat the butter and sugar until you can see a change in colour. The mix goes pale and creamy. This can take a few minutes. You don't want to over mix when you add the flour, just until it's all combined. Hope that helps!
This recipe is very simple! I am allergic to dairy, nuts, eggs, soya and don't like chocolate. Does anyone know what can I use to dip and coat the cakesickle in? Maybe royal icing?
Hi, they will be fine in a container/tupperware in a cool place, or you can keep them in the fridge. Just bring them out before you serve them so they’re back to room temperature. Hope that helps. 🙂
Hi, Colourmill is perfect for colouring the chocolate as it's oil based. Use a couple of drops of the Colour Mill to colour your melted chocolate first, before dipping.
Do you just lay them flat on a plate for the white chocolate to set on them in the fridge? Also does the chocolate not bubble or go lumpy when set? Thanks for the video
I would lay them on some baking paper/greaseproof paper once dipped (and you've removed most of the excess chocolate). They should lift off easily when they've set. If you put them directly on to a plate, they could stick to the plate and then it's difficult to pick them up. (As I learned when I forgot the baking paper once!) You might get a couple of tiny air bubbles but they shouldn't really be lumpy or bubble. Hope that helps. :)
They need a couple of hours in the fridge until they're firm enough to come out of the mould cleanly. If you're short on time you could put them in the freezer for about half an hour. Just keep an eye on them as you don't want the cake mix to be frozen solid. :)
As long as the cream cheese would firm up enough when mixed with the cake, to hold the cakesicle shape, it may be ok. You would need to keep the cakesicles in the fridge after they were made if you used cream cheese. :)

Hi, we got the mould from Amazon. They're called: "Silikomart Mini Ice-Cream Silicone Bar Mould Set, Classic, White". We've got direct links in the description box. :)
If you don’t have buttercream you can use freshcream instead and if you don’t even have freshcream beat cake for little bit more long it will combine easily

This was unsalted butter, however it's personal preference. I've heard some people prefer salted butter to cut through the sweetness of the buttercream but I haven't tried that.
Hi Jessica, I haven't tried, however you should be able to freeze the completed cakesicle. I would defrost them in the fridge overnight. If they have sprinkles on, the colour from the sprinkles may run from the moisture so that's just something to think about.
Hi I have an issue I am trying to make these for some sales but it is very very sweet and sugary because of the white chocolate ant advice on how I could make them taste like something that isn’t full of sugar?

Hi Zoya, sorry to hear you're having problems. You could try dipping the stick in some melted chocolate before pushing it into the cake, so when it sets, it's stuck to some cake. You could also try the alternative method from this video ruclips.net/video/zeI3zs3PzKg/видео.html. It avoids dipping the cake into the chocolate so you might get on with that technique better.
You probably need about 400g of melted chocolate in total so you have enough to dip and cover each cake fully. In the video, I used approx half the cake mix with 200g of melted chocolate. I did have chocolate left over but it would have been difficult to completely dip a cakesicle in the remaining chocolate (although a taller, narrower bowl/glass may have helped with that).
For these cakesicles we used the Dr Oetker White Chocolate "created for bakers". However you could use any chocolate or candy melts to dip your cakesicles into. Hope that helps. :)
Like the video but itd help if you told people tbe amount of ingredients and what you put i know its butter sugar vanilla eggs but you dont know how much so it wouldnt help ppl who dont know baking well
Omg why don’t you have more views this is much easier than all the other videos I saw you go girl💕💕💕💕
I was mainly looking for a video to show how to make cakesicles quick and easy. Your code was the best! Way to go!
These are perfection. You are unbelievably talented.
Thank you for a straightforward receipe.
Sempre pensei em fazer.
Msis schava muito trabalhoso.
Msis assim é mais fácil.
Obrigada.❤❤❤❤
New idea to do the cakesicles than the regular one. I really like it! Thanks
Hi... i loved it.. can you please help... how many days in advance can these cakesicles be made and store please
Thanks for teaching such an easy method. I was deterred making cakesicles watching other videos. Cover the mould with chocolate, refrigerate, press the crumbled cake into the mould, another layer of chocolate.... So time consuming. This is really easy
The best recipe! Thank you so much☺️
Our pleasure! Glad you liked it!!
Thank you for taking a moment to say so xx
These cakesicles are super cute!
Thank you! We were pretty pleased with how they came out :) Are you having a go?
I'd use a red solo cup to dip. Much easier and cleaner
Oh my God 🙌 😍 thank you,this is the easiest way to do
How far in advance can these be made & what's the best way to store them. Thank you
I was only going to do this bc I didn’t have cake pop sticks, but these look SO CUTEES
Good sharing video
When adding chocolate, when dry does the choc stick to the chopping board while taking off the board?
Hi, when we made them it didn’t. However to make sure, you could place them on some baking paper, as they should peel off that easily. 😊
OMG!! Amazing!! Love to you from India!!
Happy to hear you enjoyed it! Hello from England.
Do you have a video on melting and keeping chocolate melted for this?
All you gotta do is put the bowl of chocolate in boiling water and let it melt,if it hardens later on just do that process again or microwave
Griffin Colors what brand of chocolate did you use? Plz and thx
@@Sunrise0069 I use glossy and delicious chocolate melts from micheals that should say something like the Sweethoothfairy
Yeah guys she didn't told the measurements but it is in the description box
What worries me is that, what if the chocolate dip stick on the area where you put it down? Would that happen?
Can I use store bought cake ? Like lemon Cake and just add butter cream?
Yes, of course! That’s a really great way to make them too. 🙂
After you added the chocolate and placed them on the board, did the part on which you placed them still look good? You showed us just one side
My question
Gracias
Hello,can i use any chocolate and cake or is there any in specific?
Hi, you can use any chocolate and any type of cake you fancy. 😊
Hi! Can I ask what chocolate you use? Is there any you recommend?
I'm having difficulty with lumpy chocolate instead of smooth 😔
The chocolate we used here was Dr Oetker Fine Cooks White Chocolate however any chocolate should work.

Thank you so much
I'm definitely going to try this. Thank u so much
can i use any sugar andd for baking can i use micrrowave
Thank you!!! I knew there was an easier way!!
These look very neat and beautiful 😍
Thank you ☺️
The cakesickles can last for how many hours
Instead of using a big cake to make the cakesicles, can I crumble cupcakes?
Yes, I made my first cakesicles using cupcakes
I've seen so many ways doing these but when u do this way will the chocolate not come of the underneath once set ??
I thought that.. surely it's going to look a mess on the back if you lay them down whilst choc still wet..
Hi your cakesickles are very pretty
What’s the size of your mould?
Thanks for your comment. The mould we used makes cakesicles that are approximately 7cm x 4cm (excluding the stick). Hope that helps. :)
@@BrideSociety Thank you so much
Very helpful
Is there an easy way to convert grams into cups?
Trying to make cake using measuring cups.
Would this work if I bought a basic cake mix? ☺️ they’re beautiful!
Thank you! And yes, definitely! Any cake will work. :)

@@salinarashid2190 8"

Can I substitute cake frosting instead of buttercream ?
Absolutely. You just need something to bind the cake together. :)
Love the video! Is there anyway I can use candy melts instead of chocolate?
Thanks so much! And yes, you could definitely use candy melts instead! :)

Love it!❤️ so easy!! I’m gonna make the small ones... I find these better than cake pops...and much more ideas to decorate them
I’m doing them now...but when I take the out the freezer to put chocolate they come out and broke😭😭😭 why?
@@mariavalles1475 they could be too dry? Maybe more buttercream?
What kind of butter is used, salted or unsalted butter?
This was unsalted butter, however it's personal preference. I've heard some people prefer salted butter to cut through the sweetness of the buttercream but I haven't tried that.
can you freeze the completed cakesicle?

The cake inside has moisture .and that's why I think that will come up on the surface..freezer is not suggestive..
Much better!!! I almost didn’t order the silicone molds after watching other videos! Thanks ❤
Glad we could help! ☺️
Hey!!! Lovely cakesicles , I've always wondered what people do with the left over chocolate, do you keep it or throw it away?
Keep them in a tight lid container and put in the refrigerator
@@salawupriscilla Thank you! and then can I melt again or no?
Landy Arteaga they can be re melted indefinitely to my knowledge
@@Disaster724 awesome, thank you!
Landy Arteaga you’re welcome! 😁
what can we use instead of buttercream
I saw in one recipe that the baker used creamcheese instead.
Hi I have an issue I am trying to make these for some sales but it is very very sweet and sugary because of the white chocolate ant advice on how I could make them taste like something that isn’t full of sugar?
You can use pure dark chocolate ...
Use salted butter

What is buttercream ?
Hi, it's what we call frosting in the UK...It's butter and icing sugar.
can i use buttercream frosting ?
Yess
Shall I knew how long to been inside the refrigerator?
Hi Rezia, I would advise a minimum of 30 mins in the fridge for the cake mixture to firm up and the chocolate on the stick to set. Hope that helps!
How much time to keep in fridge...

Hi Veronica, the ingredients and measurements can be found in the description box below the video.
It would be easier to dip in chocolate if you use a cup
I rather put the chicken in the mood better than just dipping the cake in chocolate..I like my stuff neat n smooth

In the freezer it will only take 15/20 minutes to firm up enough to dip in the coating. :)
