White Chocolate Bunny Cakesicles (Print version)

Adorable bunny-shaped vanilla cake treats coated in creamy white chocolate, decorated for festive Easter fun.

# What goes in:

→ Cake Base

01 - 1 cup vanilla cake crumbs
02 - 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
03 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
04 - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
05 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ Coating & Decoration

06 - 10 ounces white chocolate or white chocolate melts
07 - Edible gel food coloring (pink, yellow, or other colors)
08 - 8 cakesicle sticks
09 - Sprinkles, candy eyes, or fondant decorations

# Cooking steps:

01 - Combine cake crumbs, cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Mix thoroughly until mixture reaches a dough-like consistency that holds together when shaped.
02 - Divide mixture into 8 equal portions. Form each portion into a flattened oval shape resembling a bunny face. Insert a cakesicle stick into each shape, pressing gently to secure.
03 - Place shaped cakesicles in refrigerator for 20-30 minutes until firm to the touch. This step is essential for maintaining shape during chocolate coating.
04 - Place white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each session until completely smooth and fluid.
05 - Dip each chilled cake pop into melted white chocolate, ensuring complete coverage. Gently tap stick against bowl edge to remove excess coating.
06 - Transfer coated cakesicles to parchment-lined tray. Immediately attach candy eyes, sprinkles, or fondant bunny features while chocolate remains soft.
07 - Allow chocolate to set completely at room temperature, approximately 15-20 minutes. For quicker results, refrigerate for 5-10 minutes. Add final details with food coloring pens if desired.

# Tips from flavorandfeast:

01 -
  • These look like you spent hours at a fancy bakery but actually come together in under an hour
  • The combination of moist cake and creamy white chocolate is absolutely addictive
02 -
  • If your cake mixture feels too dry, add another teaspoon of cream cheese until it holds together properly
  • White chocolate seizes easily, so never let even a drop of water near your melting bowl
03 -
  • Keep a bowl of warm water nearby to dip your chocolate spoon in for easy cleanup
  • Work in small batches of 3-4 at a time so your chocolate doesnt harden while decorating
