Tips:

  • If you don't have a candy mold, you can use a spoon to drop the melted chocolate into small dollops on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Once the chocolate has hardened, you can then stick the cake pops into the dollops.
  • To make the cake pops even more festive, you can decorate them with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or edible glitter.
  • Cake pops can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze them for up to 2 months. To thaw, simply place the cake pops in the refrigerator overnight.
