Description
These Trick-or-Treat Ghost Cake Pops are a fun and festive way to celebrate Halloween, easy to make and perfect for spooky parties.
Ingredients
- Store-bought mini pound cakes (or any simple cake)
- Nutella (or frosting of your choice)
- 1 package white candy melts wafers
- Lollipop sticks
- Pumpkin-shaped sprinkles
- Black edible marker
Instructions
- Crumble the cake: Break cake into fine crumbs using hands, a fork, or whisk.
- Mix with Nutella: Add a few tablespoons of Nutella and combine until the mixture holds together. Add more Nutella if needed.
- Shape the ghosts: Roll mixture into balls or slightly oval shapes. For arms, roll small pieces and attach with melted candy. Let set.
- Prepare sticks: Melt a small amount of candy melts. Dip one end of each lollipop stick into the candy, then insert into the cake ball. Let set.
- Coat the pops: Melt remaining candy melts. Dip each cake pop, covering fully, and gently tap off excess.
- Decorate: While coating is still wet, place pumpkin-shaped sprinkles on the sides as trick-or-treat baskets. Let set.
- Add faces: Once dry, draw eyes and a mouth with an edible marker. Optionally, add basket handles for detail.
Notes
Cake pops can be made 1–2 days in advance and stored in the fridge. Swap flavors for different tastes, such as using chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting.
