- Lightly oil the cake pop maker cooking plates. Plug it in to preheat it. Pour the mixture into the cake pop maker cavities, close the lid and bake for 4-6 minutes or until golden and cooked through. I like to use a small spatula to remove them because the cake pop maker gets hot. Let them cool for a few minutes.
