These No-Bake Orange Creamsicle Truffles are a bite-sized treat that captures the nostalgic flavor of your favorite creamsicle pop.

With just a few ingredients—crushed vanilla wafers, orange juice concentrate, and a luscious white chocolate coating—these truffles are sweet, tangy, and absolutely delightful.

Perfect for holidays, summer gatherings, or as edible gifts!

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

No oven needed – a refreshing treat you can whip up without baking.

Classic creamsicle flavor – orange and vanilla come together like magic.

Perfect for gifting – beautiful and easy to package.

Fun for kids and adults – simple ingredients with big flavor.

Make-ahead friendly – store well in the fridge or freezer.

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Vanilla Wafers – crushed finely for the perfect texture.

Powdered Sugar – sweetens the truffle base.

Orange Juice Concentrate – provides that punchy citrus flavor.

Unsalted Butter – makes the filling rich and creamy.

White Chocolate Chips or Candy Melts – for coating the truffles.

Orange Zest & Vanilla Extract – optional, but adds even more creamsicle flavor.

Pro Tips Before You Start

Use softened butter – it blends better with the sugar and juice.

Crush wafers finely – for the best dough consistency.

Chill before dipping – helps the truffles stay firm during coating.

Work quickly – dip and decorate before the white chocolate sets.

Freeze extras – they hold up beautifully and taste great cold.

How to Make Orange Creamsicle Truffles

Step 1: Make the Truffle Mixture

In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter and powdered sugar until smooth.

Stir in the orange juice concentrate, orange zest (if using), and vanilla extract.

Add the crushed vanilla wafers and mix until the dough forms.

Step 2: Shape the Truffles

Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions and roll into smooth balls.

Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.

Step 3: Melt the Coating

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips or candy melts in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely smooth.

Step 4: Dip and Decorate

Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each truffle into the melted white chocolate and let the excess drip off.

Return to the baking sheet and immediately sprinkle with decorations (sprinkles, zest, etc.) before the coating sets.

Step 5: Chill and Serve

Refrigerate the truffles for 15–20 minutes until the coating is fully set.

Serve chilled or at room temperature.

What to Serve Them With

Holiday dessert platters

Tea parties or brunch spreads

Edible gift boxes

After-dinner coffee

Citrus cocktails or sparkling water

Variations / Substitutions

Swap the zest – use lemon or lime zest for a new citrus twist.

Chocolate lovers – coat in dark chocolate for a bold flavor contrast.

Gluten-free – sub in gluten-free vanilla wafers.

Add coconut – roll finished truffles in shredded coconut.

Vegan version – use dairy-free butter and white chocolate.

Storage & Leftovers

Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days.

Freezer: Freeze in a sealed container for up to 2 months.

Thaw in the fridge before serving.

Avoid heat: These melt easily, so keep them cool before serving.

FAQs

Can I use fresh orange juice instead of concentrate?
No, the concentrate is key for intense flavor and thicker texture.

Can I make these ahead?
Absolutely! They’re great make-ahead treats and even better the next day.

Can I skip the white chocolate coating?
Yes, but the coating helps hold them together and adds sweetness.

How do I crush the vanilla wafers?
Use a food processor, or seal in a zip bag and crush with a rolling pin.

Do they need to be refrigerated?
Yes, especially in warm climates. Keep them chilled until ready to serve.

Can I add food coloring to the coating?
Sure! A few drops of orange food coloring will make them pop visually.

Do they taste like creamsicles?
Yes! The combination of orange and vanilla gives that classic creamsicle vibe.
