Directions

1. In a large bowl, crumble the prepared chocolate cake and combine with the frosting.
2. Use the cake mixture to create 1 ½-inch balls. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. Insert a pop stick into each cake pop.
4. Stand each cake pop (stick facing up) in the freezer until firm.
5. Melt the candy melts according to package directions.
6. Remove the cake pops from the freezer, and coat each one in the melted chocolate. Quickly place each pop back on the baking sheet (standing up).
7. Once the chocolate is dry and set, use your red cake decorating icing and create flames all around the base of each cake pop; repeat with the orange cake decorating icing.
8. Pick up each cake pop and smear a little green icing on the flat top of each "cauldron," then add the green candies for the bubbles in the cauldron.
9. Slide your decorative Halloween straws over each pop stick for an added decorative element.
