Cake Balls, posting 1 of 2
I will be doing two postings because I can only post up to three pictures onto one post and I have more than three.
These cake balls are just so much fun to make and extremely easy. My project took two days because I made three different types of cakes.
Cherry Chip Cake
Lemon Jello Cake - which I think turned out the BEST
Coconut Cake
As for my buttercream and for the Cake Ball recipe, I must give Credit to SeriousCakes. You can find all of the instructions on YouTube when you look up SeriousCakes, including the Buttercream recipe that I used.
I split my buttercream into fourths so that I could have different flavors to enhance my cake balls.
Buttercream: Cherry and Lemom
The Buttercream for the Coconut cake I didn't not flavor at all, not even with Vanilla.
I also thought about the HOW TO get the cake balls to dry with out the flat bottom that might be showing the cake and I came up with a different idea to which really worked well for me. I am quite pleased with the results.

Sher-I did it! I tried the toothpick method and I like it much better, thank you for posting! I found that I had a lot less cracking if I removed the toothpick while the chocolate was still a little soft. I also left them to finish hole side up so the cake could ooze out of that little hole. I think the cracking happens because as they come back up to room temp the cake inside expands some while the chocolate shrinks some as it hardens. The little hole provides some pressure relief.
