Recently, I was guest blogging over at A Peek Into My Paradise for New Years and shared these amazing Champagne Cake Balls.  You will not be able to eat just one!!  I thought I’d share them again over here at The TipToe Fairy in case you missed it.  Plus, you can make these for any occasion, not just New Years! These would be perfect for Valentine’s Day.

I thought I’d share some festive treats with all of you!  Champagne Cake Pops!  Perfect for your New Year’s Eve party or any grown up party! These are super easy to make, even if you’ve never made cake pops before.  They are absolutely delicious with just a hint of champagne flavor.  Plus, they will totally impressive your guests.

Guess what? Super easy means you can use a boxed cake mix and canned icing! I used a butter cake mix and cream cheese frosting from a can, but you can use a white or even strawberry cake mix and any flavor of icing.  I just thought cream cheese would add to the richness of the flavor.  Also, with this recipe, you can use Champagne, Prosecco or any sparkling wine.
