Notes
If you don’t have vanilla stevia, simply use a total of 1 teaspoon vanilla + ½ packet of stevia.
The cake balls are very delicate when you roll them, make sure to really compress them in your hands while rolling so that they hold together when it comes time to dip them.
The dairy-free cake pops are very delicate when you roll them because they're gluten-free. So, make sure to really compress them in your hands AROUND the stick so that they stay together.
Then, when dipping in the chocolate make sure to get some chocolate on the base of the stick so that it coats and holds it in.
