1. Cut cake into sections. Crumble cake into small
pieces, rubbing sections together.
2. Use a fork to make fine crumbs.
3. Add a spoonful of icing and stir into crumbs until
cake will be able to be rolled into balls with
out falling apart. Amount of icing used will vary,
depending on how moist cake is.*
4. Use a cookie scoop for consistent - sized balls.
Scoop and roll into 1” balls.
5. Put cake balls into freezer for about 15 minutes
to chill, but not to freeze.
6. Dip into melted candy coating.
7. 1 cake mix makes approximately 140 balls using a
1”cookie scoop.
8. *The trickiest part of making cake balls is making sure the
consistency is correct. The more moist your cake, the less
icing required. Add a bit of icing at a time. Test the con
sistency by squeezing the mixture with your hands. It
should hold your hand impression while not being sticky
