Instructions
Start by preparing your cake by packaged directions. Beat cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a bowl. Pour the batter into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish or two 8x8-inch round cake dishes and bake in a 350 degree F oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely, then crumble it with a fork in a large bowl or in the baking dish. Stir the frosting into the crumbled cake, cover, and freeze until chilled.
Use your hands to roll the mixture into evenly sized heart shape. Freeze again until balls are hard. It’s easier to roll the cake & frosting mixture into perfectly round balls if it’s cold. The cake & frosting mixture is super moist, and at room temperature it makes it extremely difficult to shape them perfectly.
Melt candy melts in the microwave or in a double boiler. Dip each lollipop stick into the chocolate, then stick it into one of the cake pop balls. Do this with all of them, and put them back in the freezer until they are solidified.
Gently dip the balls into the melted candy melts or spoon the mixture onto the balls and twirl to coat. Decorate with sprinkles if desired. Place them upright in a Styrofoam block or a box to harden.
