Easy Cake Pops Recipe

When chilling the cake balls, are they to be placed in an air tight container?

Nice to see an 8 year old doing it, gives be more confidence that I could do it myself.

OMG!!! YOU ARE SOOOO GOOD AT BAKING!!!!!! 😊❤❤❤

Is it okay if we use the frosting recipe from your other video?

He is so cute, you are teaching him how to make cakep pop he will one day be like you in the kitchen 😊

Nope lost me on make your own frosting I need easy

Good morning my question if I want to make chocolate frosting what kind of chocolate do I get to make it chocolate?🍫 ❤

No hate to Preppy kitchen, (his videos are great 👍)

But for this recipe, I found a recipe that I did that worked great and was a bit easier.
Here’s my recipe:

Don’t care for that DOUGHY texture. I bake my cake pops then stick n decorate

Nah. 😂 way too many steps. This other cc uses the steam from the cake to bind together instead of using frosting. She dumps it all in the mixer straight from oven. This is too much. I was expecting this to be simple. that's why i clicked 😂

All the videos I have seen from bakers who sell online mixed the still hot dough together I didn't see anyone adding and folding in frosting. This looks much better what John is showing.

He’s adorable. So serious concentrating. Lol

How many grams should a vanilla cake be?

Thanks
Kids love ❤️ these
God Almighty continue to bless you 💎and your channel

2:13 - thank you John you answered my question ❤❤❤ love this! I’m going to give it a try for my son’s 7th birthday party 🎉🎉

Is this recipe in your book? Preppy kitchen, no all the recipies are on the book

I am a kid and we are going to try to make this by ourselves because our parents don’t really bake so bye

He's cute let em take it 😂

❤

"Mmm yum 🫥" so funny 😂

that's a lot of ads for such a short video...

See how serious his little face was, he was concentrating

You talk too much

I'm following your channel from Puerto Rico. Love your recipes and personality.

That passive aggressive body language when a kid is on camera. 💀

Omg! I’ve been trying to learn to bake my own family occasion cakes and after watching a gazillion videos I found yours to be the most accurate recipes. Well today I was looking for my old Greek spanakopita recipe by someone else but preppy kitchen popped up with one and I thought that’s strange so I watched it! I can’t believe that after watching a ton of cake recipes by you I just found out in the spanakopita video that you are a fellow Greek! Zeto Ellada 🇬🇷!!! Your surname must have been shortened. Anyway, I’m a Greek Canadian and I live in Nova Scotia. My Mom passed away 2 years ago and I’ve been trying to fill her shoes making various Greek dishes. So please post more Greek recipes videos! From one fellow Greek to another!

I have my green cake balls in the fridge to chill overnight then I'll put the sticks on then dip tomorrow with cute green sprinkles to give my lady friends at our st. Patrick's dinner ❤

Definitely do not use frosting in a jar. It has too much artificial ingredients and is more wet which will end up making cake mud that you can't roll into balls. Either make the butter cream frosting on the video or your store bakery will be happy to sell you a container.

Aw Laughlin is adorable, he was concentrating so hard bless him

Your son is so cute. Great helper!

😊😊😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Such a smart kid " are these dry". Lol

This is so cool and so pretty.

Haha, I like that…that was more than a teaspoon…everything looks yummy. I love your kitchen 👍

If I don't have heavy cream, can I use regular milk?

FUCK I BOUGHT CREAM CHEESE

The cutest assistant ever!!

Finally a pro baker make cakepops im the way they should be. I have seen 100s of Bakers are making cakepops and they are ewwww like literally play dough consistency which would be unpleasant in the mouth i am sure.

But preppy make it in cakey consistency like a person who is eating could feels tje crumbs of cake not a dough of cake 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Grocery store froasting in the container is nasty....totally agree, definitely make your own

So helpful!! Thank you
