Cake pops are one of the most Instagram-friendly desserts on the market, but it’s not always easy to make them. One of the biggest challenges you’ll face is making them stand on their sticks without falling off, but you can get it done by trying these useful cake pops hacks.

Size Matters

The bigger your cake pops are, the more difficult it will be to make them stick. You should make sure to keep them at around 1.25 inches wide or even smaller if you want to make them stick.

No Stirring

If you have a habit of coating your cake pops by stirring them, feel free to skip this step. You’re putting too much pressure on your cake pops with stirring movement, and tilting them in both directions is usually quite enough.

Candy Coating

You should dip sticks into the candy coating before placing them on your pops. By doing so, you’ll help them stick much better because candy coating acts like glue.

Excess Coating

Removing excess coating after dipping your cake pops can be really tricky. It’s important to be gentle and avoid quick movements so your pops wouldn’t end up falling off.
