Festive Halloween Cake Pops Recipe

These cake pops are made from moist cake crumbled and mixed with frosting, shaped into balls, and dipped in colorful candy melts. The recipe takes about 1.5 hours from start to finish and yields approximately 24 cake pops.

Ingredients

1 box of cake mix (any flavor)
1 cup frosting (store-bought or homemade)
1 bag of orange candy melts
1 bag of green candy melts
Candy eyes for decoration
Black icing or edible markers for facial features
Lollipop sticks
Styrofoam block or cake pop stand for drying

Instructions

Bake the Cake: Prepare the cake mix according to package instructions and bake in a 9×13 inch pan. Allow to cool completely.
Crumble the Cake: Once cooled, crumble the cake into a large bowl until fine crumbs form. Mix in the frosting until well combined.
Shape the Cake Pops: Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll into balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Melt the Candy: In separate bowls, melt the orange and green candy melts according to package instructions.
Dip the Cake Pops: Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted orange candy, then insert it into a cake pop ball. This helps secure the stick. Dip the entire cake pop into the orange candy melts, allowing excess to drip off.
Decorate: While the candy coating is still wet, add candy eyes and use black icing or edible markers to create monster faces. Allow the cake pops to dry upright in a Styrofoam block or cake pop stand.
Serve: Once set, arrange the cake pops on a platter and enjoy your festive Halloween treats!
