These Strawberry Velvet Cheesecake Truffle Bites are a dream for anyone who loves a mix of fruity tang, creamy richness, and decadent sweetness in every bite. With a moist red velvet strawberry cake center and a silky white chocolate coating, these little bites are ideal for parties, romantic evenings, or just treating yourself on a weekday.

The smooth texture of the cheesecake and the soft crumble of strawberry velvet cake marry perfectly inside a crunchy white chocolate shell. Topped with festive pink drizzle and crumbles, they look just as luxurious as they taste—no baking skills needed to impress with this one!

Can I Use Store-Bought Cake Mix or Do I Need to Bake from Scratch?

You can absolutely use a strawberry cake mix for ease and consistency. In fact, boxed cake mix is perfect for truffles since it produces a moist and dense texture that binds well with the cream cheese. Of course, feel free to bake your own strawberry velvet cake if you’re going for a homemade touch.

Ingredients for the Strawberry Velvet Cheesecake Truffle Bites

• Strawberry Cake: The base of our truffles, offering that nostalgic strawberry flavor and pink hue.
• Cream Cheese: Gives the bites a smooth, cheesecake-like texture and slight tang.
• White Chocolate: Used for coating, adding sweetness and a delightful snap.

How To Make the Strawberry Velvet Cheesecake Truffle Bites

Step 1: Bake or Crumble the Cake

Prepare your strawberry cake according to the box or homemade recipe. Once cooled, crumble it finely in a large bowl.

Step 2: Mix with Cream Cheese

Add softened cream cheese to the crumbled cake and blend until the mixture becomes dough-like and smooth enough to roll into balls.

Step 3: Shape and Chill

Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or freeze for 20 minutes to firm up.

Step 4: Coat with White Chocolate

Melt white chocolate until smooth. Dip each chilled truffle ball into the melted chocolate using a fork or toothpick. Tap off excess and place back on the tray.

Step 5: Decorate

While the coating is still wet, drizzle with melted pink candy or dyed white chocolate. Top with strawberry crumbles or sprinkles.

Step 6: Chill Again and Serve

Let the chocolate set in the fridge for 20-30 minutes. Once hardened, transfer to a serving tray or airtight container.
