Spooky Halloween Cake Pops Recipe

These cake pops feature a moist cake center, shaped into pumpkins and coated with orange candy melts. Decorated with green chocolate leaves and served on sticks, they make a delightful addition to any Halloween party. The recipe yields about 12 cake pops.

Ingredients

1 box of cake mix (any flavor)
1 cup frosting (store-bought or homemade)
1 bag of orange candy melts
Green candy melts for leaves
Lollipop sticks
Edible eyes (optional)
Sprinkles for decoration (optional)

Instructions

Bake the Cake: Prepare the cake mix according to package instructions. Allow it to cool completely before crumbling.
Mix with Frosting: In a large bowl, crumble the cooled cake and mix in the frosting until well combined. The mixture should be moist but not too sticky.
Shape the Cake Pops: Scoop out small portions of the cake mixture and roll them into balls. Then, shape them into pumpkin forms by slightly flattening the top and bottom.
Melt the Candy: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the orange candy melts according to package instructions until smooth.
Dip the Sticks: Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted candy, then insert it into the bottom of each pumpkin-shaped cake pop.
Coat the Cake Pops: Dip each pumpkin cake pop into the melted orange candy, allowing excess to drip off. Place them upright in a styrofoam block or a cake pop stand to set.
Decorate: Once the coating has set, melt the green candy melts and drizzle or pipe them onto the top of each cake pop to create leaves. Add edible eyes or sprinkles for extra decoration if desired.
Serve: Allow the cake pops to fully set before serving. Enjoy your Haunted Pumpkin Patch Cake Pops at your Halloween gathering!
