3. Stitch Cake Pops
Equipment: Disney Lilo & Stitch Cake Pop Maker
Ingredients:
1 box cake mix (plus ingredients listed on box)
Navy blue chocolate melts
Food coloring Markers (light blue, pink, black, white)
Instructions:
Step 1: Make the Cake Pops
Preheat the Cake Pop Maker for about 3-5 minutes
Fill each mold cavity with prepared cake batter.
Close the lid and bake for 3-6 minutes or until the cake pops are cooked through and golden.
Step 2: Insert the Sticks
Carefully insert a cake pop stick into each cooled Stitch-shaped cake pop.
Tip: Dip the end of each stick in a bit of melted navy blue chocolate before inserting to help secure it.
Step 3: Melt the Navy Blue Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the navy blue chocolate melts in 30-second bursts, stirring between each until smooth.
Step 4: Coat the Cake Pops
Dip each Stitch-shaped cake pop into the melted navy blue chocolate, rotating to fully coat it.
Let excess chocolate drip off, then place the cake pops upright in a Styrofoam block to dry completely.
Step 5: Decorate with Food Coloring Markers
Once the chocolate coating is dry and smooth, use food coloring markers to add Stitch’s face:
-
- Black marker: for the eyes and nose
- White marker: for the inner eyes
- Light Blue marker: For the “fur” patches around eyes
- Pink marker: for the inner parts of the ears
Substitutions:
You can use fondant for more detailed 3D facial features (e.g. nose, ears, eyes), but the markers are perfect for simple, clean designs.
