Puff, Puff, POP!
As we bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, there’s no better way to celebrate than with friends, loved ones, and a touch of something special. This year, elevate your New Year’s festivities by adding a unique twist to your party treats – hemp-infused cake pops! And for that extra kick, consider using delta-8 distillate for a memorable and mellow experience.
Why delta-8 distillate, you ask? Well, let’s dive into the delightful reasons:
Mild, Relaxing Buzz: Delta-8 THC, a cousin of the more well-known delta-9 THC, offers a milder psychoactive experience. It provides a gentle, uplifting high without the intensity or anxiety sometimes associated with traditional THC.
Flavorless Magic: One of the beauties of delta-8 distillate is its neutral flavor profile. Unlike some cannabis extracts that can impart a strong taste, delta-8 won’t overpower the deliciousness of your cake pops. This means you can savor the sweetness without any unwanted herbal notes.
Precision in Dosing: Delta-8 distillate allows for accurate dosing, ensuring that each cake pop delivers a consistent and controlled amount of the compound. This is especially important when catering to a group with varying tolerances and preferences.
Legal and Accessible: In many places, delta-8 THC is legal and more widely accessible than its delta-9 counterpart. This makes it a convenient choice for those looking to enjoy the benefits of THC in regions where cannabis laws are more restrictive.
As you count down to midnight surrounded by laughter and joy, let these hemp-infused cake pops be the highlight of your New Year’s gathering. Cheers to a year filled with love, happiness, and delicious experiences!

- Serving Size: One cake pop
Ingredients
- .25 g of Vivimu’s Delta 8 Distillate
- 15 oz box of White Cake Mix, cooked according to package directions in a 9×13″ pan
- 10 oz package of Dark Chocolate Melting Wafers
- 10 oz package of White Chocolate Melting Wafers
- 24 Cake Pop Sticks
Buttercream Frosting
- 1 stick of Salted Butter, softened
- 2-2 ½ cups of Powdered Sugar
- 1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
- 1 tablespoon of Heavy Cream or Milk
Instructions
Buttercream Frosting
- In a medium bowl, whip the butter. Add 1 cup of powdered sugar and mix until combined. Slowly add the vanilla and additional powdered sugar, using small portions at a time. Add 1 Tablespoon of heavy cream or milk to make the frosting thick and creamy.
White Cake Mix
- Follow the directions on the cake mix, but when you add in the required butter/oil, be sure to mix in your Delta 8 Distillate during this step. This will infuse your cake mix.
Cake Pops
- In a large bowl, crumble the prepared cake into fine crumbs (make sure it has cooled completely before crumbling). Add 2 spoonfuls of buttercream frosting to the cake. Combine with your hands or a spoon. Gradually add more frosting until the cake holds together if squeezed. You don’t want it too crumbly or it won’t hold together.
- Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop out 1 scoop of cake mixture. Roll into a ball and place onto a plate. Repeat until all the cake mixture has been formed into balls. Freeze balls for about 10 minutes.
Chocolate Shell
- Right before they are ready to be taken out of the freezer, melt the dark chocolate and the white chocolate in two separate microwave safe bowls. Begin by heating for 30 seconds and then stirring. Once coated in chocolate, gently tap the stick on the side of the melting dish to let the excess drip off. You can also spin or twirl the cake pop to remove the excess.
- Before the chocolate starts to harden, add any decorations that you would like. If decorating with more chocolate, let the chocolate covering harden on the cake pop. Then, using a spoon or fork, drizzle with the additional melted chocolate.
- Push the cake pop stick into a styrofoam block or use a glass filled with rice to hold them upright. The chocolate will be set in about an hour. Store for 3-4 days in an airtight container in a cool place.
