The candy flames on top create an eye-catching effect, making these treats not only delicious but also visually appealing. The recipe yields about 12 cake pops and takes approximately 1 hour to prepare.

Ingredients

1 box of chocolate cake mix (plus ingredients required on the box)
1 cup chocolate frosting
12 oz black candy melts
12 lollipop sticks
Candy corn or orange and yellow candy melts for flames
Edible glitter or sprinkles for decoration (optional)

Instructions

Bake the Cake: Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions. Once baked, let it cool completely.
Crumble the Cake: In a large bowl, crumble the cooled cake into fine crumbs. Mix in the chocolate frosting until well combined.
Shape the Cake Pops: Use your hands to form the cake mixture into small balls, then shape them into cauldron-like forms. Insert a lollipop stick into each cauldron and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Chill the Cake Pops: Refrigerate the shaped cake pops for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Melt the Candy Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the black candy melts according to package instructions until smooth.
Dip the Cake Pops: Dip each chilled cake pop into the melted candy coating, allowing excess to drip off. Place them back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Create the Flames: Melt the orange and yellow candy melts (or use candy corn) and pipe or place them on top of the cake pops to resemble flames.
Decorate: Optionally, sprinkle edible glitter or sprinkles on top for added flair.
Serve: Allow the cake pops to set completely before serving. Enjoy your spooky Halloween treats!
