Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare the cake mix according to package instructions. Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

Once cooled, crumble the cake into fine crumbs in a large mixing bowl, ensuring there are no large chunks.

Mix in the frosting a few tablespoons at a time until a dough-like consistency forms.

Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.

Melt the candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth and lump-free.

Dip the tip of each lollipop stick in the melted candy, then insert halfway into each cake ball.

Coat each cake ball fully in the melted candy and tap the stick to remove excess. Place upright to set.

Decorate with sprinkles, candy eyes, or melted chocolate. Get creative with your designs!

Allow the decorated cake pops to harden completely before serving and enjoying.
