- 1 cup of water
- 1 can of frosting (any flavor)

Instructions

- Crumble the cooled cake into fine pieces in a large bowl.
- Add the frosting to the crumbled cake. Stir until fully combined and the mixture is moldable.
- Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Freeze the cake pop balls for about 30 minutes to help them hold their shape when dipped.
- Melt the candy melts according to package instructions until smooth.
- Dip the end of a lollipop stick into the melted candy for better adherence.
- Insert the lollipop stick into a cake pop ball, ensuring it goes in about halfway.
- Dip each cake pop into the melted candy until fully coated, allowing excess to drip off.
- Decorate with sprinkles or your favorite toppings while the candy coating is still wet.
- Place the decorated cake pops upright in a Styrofoam block or cake pop stand until the coating is set.
Notes
Choose a cake mix and frosting that complement each other for the best flavor. Work quickly when dipping the pops so the candy coating doesn’t harden before decorating.
