Follow the directions of your chosen cake mix to make your cake. The cake mix I used is the Betty Crocker Triple Chocolate Fudge.

Let It Cool!

After your cake is done baking, let it cool until it is room temperature. I let my cake sit for about an hour.

Put Your Cake in a Bowl!

After your cake has reached room temperature, add it into a large bowl.

Crumble!

Use your hands to crumble the cake into small crumbs. This may get messy!

Time for Frosting!

Add a little bit of frosting into your bowl at a time. Continue adding frosting until your mix can hold a ball shape. It is perfectly fine if your cake balls crumble a bit!

Form Your Cake Balls!

Follow the instructions on your candy melts bag in order to melt them. Dip the end of your cake pop sticks into the melted candy.

Cake Pop Sticks!

Immediately insert the cake pop sticks more than halfway through the cake balls.

After all of your cake balls are ready with a stick in them, pop them in the fridge for 20 minutes!

Almost Done!

Your cake pops are done in the fridge once the chocolate is set.

Decorate!

Melt your candy melts again. Then, dip your cake pops into the melt until it is fully covered. If you want to add sprinkles, pour them onto the cake pop after covering it with your candy melts.

Enjoy!
