Cake Pops



Items needed
  • lollypop sticks
  • candy melts - any color
  • any flavor box of cake and ingredients needed to make the cake
  • 3/4 container of frosting
  • block of styrofoam
  • cookie sheet
  • wax paper
Bake the cake according to directions on the back. Once cooled, crumble the cake in a food processor or KitchenAid using the whisk.



Add 3/4 container of frosting and mix.



Line a cookie sheet with wax paper. Form into balls (or any other shape), line on cookie sheet, and place in the freezer until hard. Melt the candy melts in the microwave. Dip a lollypop stick in the candy melts and stick in the balls.



Once the candy melts have melted (a minute or so) coat the balls in the melted candy melts. Decorate with sprinkles, m&m's, coconut, or pipe on a design. Stick in a piece of styrofoam to dry.



Once coated and decorated, they are ready in just a few minutes!
