Champagne Cake Pops – Ring in the New Year or celebrate a special occasion with these gorgeous cake pops prepared with a cake mix, store-bought frosting and some fancy sprinkles! So easy to make!

This post may include affiliate links. Please see my disclosure.

New Year’s Eve is tomorrow and it’s time to celebrate! The year has flown by, but it’s time to ring in the new year and all its possibilities. What better way than with these adorable Champagne Cake Pops?! These cake pops make a great addition to your new year’s parties or events with family or friends. 

HOW TO MAKE CHAMPAGNE CAKE POPS

To make these sparkly cake pops, you’ll need:

  • White cake mix
  • Champagne
  • Vegetable oil
  • Egg whites
  • Container vanilla frosting
  • White chocolate chips
  • Gold edible glitter or sprinkles, optional for garnish
  • Gold stars, optional for garnish

Cake pops may seem complicated to make, but most of your time is spent baking the cake! They are actually really simple to prepare.

BAKING THE CAKE

steps for making a cake

  1. In a large bowl, beat cake mix, champagne, vegetable oil and egg whites at medium speed with a mixer until smooth.
  2. Batter should be smooth; some bubbles are okay.
  3. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  4. Cool in pan for about 30 minutes, or until cool enough to handle.

MAKING THE CAKE BALLS

  1. Crumble your cake into a large mixing bowl. 
  2. Add the frosting to the cake crumbs and work it into the cake with your hands until it forms a ball.
  3. Roll or scoop dough into 1-inch balls.
  4. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

CREATING THE CAKE POPS

After you melt a small amount of white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, follow the steps below:

  1. Dip cake pop sticks into melted chocolate.
  2. Push the sticks into the cake pops, then freeze for 1 hour.
  3. Melt remaining white chocolate chips. Roll each cake pop in melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.
  4. Add sprinkles and stars quickly before chocolate hardens. Chill before serving.

CAN I OMIT THE CHAMPAGNE?

If you’d like to make the cake pops kid-friendly, you can use equal parts of water instead of champagne. You can also use champagne extract to give your cake that champagne flavor without using alcohol. Two teaspoons is all you need!

Champagne extract can be found in the baking aisle, the cake decorating section, or you can order it online.

CAN I MAKE CAKE BALLS INSTEAD OF POPS?

You don’t have to use the sticks. You can easily make these into champagne cake bites instead of cake pops.

Just dip the cake balls into the melted chocolate and allow to harden on parchment paper. These make a fun alternative to the classic cake pops.

WILL I TASTE A LOT OF CHAMPAGNE IN THE POPS?

The champagne is baked into the cake, so most of the alcohol is baked out of these treats, leaving just a touch of champagne flavor.

HOW DO YOU STORE CAKE POPS?

The best way to store your pre-made cake pops is to place them in an airtight container with a paper towel lining the bottom of the container.

Place the cake pops in a single layer on top of the paper towel. Cover the container and store them in the fridge for 5-7 days.

CAN YOU FREEZE CAKE POPS?

You can prepare cake pops ahead of time and freeze them until you’re ready to enjoy them.

Simply place them in a large plastic freezer bag after they’ve fully dried and place them in the freezer for up to two months.
