They fit perfectly well into any active and conscious lifestyle and can be a guilt-free treat at any time. This cake pop recipe is packed with nutrients and superfoods that are actually good for you. They have a light and fluffy cake texture and you don’t need to go for a two hour run to burn off those extra calories.
