Keto Cake Pops
eseThere’s just something about eating a decorative, bite-sized dessert on a stick that is so fun. My kids love these!
These homemade cake pops are the perfect treat for birthdays, baby showers, wedding showers, holidays or when hosting dinner.
You can even wrap them up individually and give them to guests as party favors.
They’re a cinch to customize with your favorite flavors and colors and are perfect for those moments when you just need a little taste of something sweet.
Now, I know mine aren’t 100% true cake pops– they’re basically cake balls with sticks in them, but people can still carry them around like cake pops. I mean, who wants messy hands?
These are no-bake and keto friendly. Basically a fat bomb, but more fun.
Easily customizable with different extract flavors, and/or food coloring. Talk about letting your imagination go wild!
Let’s talk about sprinkles:
Sprinkles, which are known in some countries as hundreds and thousands, are very small pieces of confectionery.
Used as an often colorful decoration to add texture to desserts, such as cookies, cupcakes, donuts, and ice cream…these tiny candies are produced in a variety of colors and are generally used as a topping or a decorative element.
Can you buy sugar-free sprinkles?
Yes indeed!
I used rainbow and chocolate sprinkles from the folks at perfect keto/ superfat…..but companies like Good Dee’s also make them.
They are quite tasty and very reminiscent of childhood.
