Monster Eyeball Cake Pops

Fun and spooky Monster Eyeball Cake Pops perfect for Halloween parties or themed events. These bite-sized treats are delicious, creepy, and easy to make with cake mix, frosting, and candy melts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box cake mix (any flavor), prepared and cooled
  • 1/2 cup frosting (any flavor)
  • 1 package white candy melts
  • 1/2 cup red candy melts
  • 1/4 cup black candy melts
  • Eyeball candy decorations or colored candy for pupils
  • 24 lollipop sticks
  • Styrofoam block or cake pop stand (for drying)

Instructions

  1. Prepare and bake the cake according to package instructions. Let it cool completely.
  2. Crumble the cake into fine crumbs in a large bowl.
  3. Add frosting and mix until the texture resembles dough.
  4. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill for 1 hour.
  5. Melt the white candy melts according to package directions.
  6. Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into the melted candy, then insert it halfway into a cake ball.
  7. Dip each cake pop into the white candy melts, coating completely. Tap gently to remove excess.
  8. While the coating is still wet, press an eyeball candy or colored candy in the center to form the pupil.
  9. Place the cake pops in a Styrofoam block or cake pop stand to dry completely.
  10. Melt the red candy melts and use a toothpick to draw squiggly lines to mimic bloodshot eyes.
  11. Melt the black candy melts and add details like pupils or outlines if desired.
  12. Let all decorations set before serving or packaging.

Notes

  • You can use homemade cake and frosting if preferred.
  • Chilling the cake balls helps prevent them from falling off the sticks when dipping.
  • Use gel food coloring if you want custom eye colors.
