Turn leftover Halloween cake into an array of frightfully fun treats, including Jack-O-Lantern Pumpkin Pops, Creepy Crawlies, a Hungry Like the (Were)wolf, MMM-Mummy pops, Cake Pop Poltergeist, and a Haunting of Cake Pop House display.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Crumble the remnants of your Halloween cake until they form a fine, uniform mixture.
  2. Prepare your buttercream frosting and set it aside for assembling the treats.
  3. Form small pumpkin shapes using the cake mixture, then attach tiny licorice strips to craft expressive faces for your Jack-O-Lantern Pumpkin Pops.
  4. Submerge the chilled cake balls in dark candy coating. Once set, affix candy eyes and licorice legs, then use white candy melts to pipe delicate spiderwebs for your Creepy Crawlies.
  5. Dip a cake pop in candy coating, then use a toothpick to drag and pull the surface to create a shaggy, textured look for the Hungry Like the (Were)wolf treat.
  6. Dip cake balls in white chocolate or candy melts, then use a fine piping tip to draw bandage wrappings for your MMM-Mummy pops.
  7. Chill the cake balls thoroughly before shaping them into ghost forms for the Cake Pop Poltergeist.
  8. Assemble the Haunting of Cake Pop House scene by adding a skull and bones, a bat, and a large spooky moon to your display.
