Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Crumble the cake well into a bowl
* Step 2
Add the frosting and mix in
* Step 3
The mixture should be holding together but not too moist, get your hands in and work it well
* Step 4
Divide the mixture into 16 and roll into balls. Place on a plate
* Step 5
Melt a few squares of the chocolate and dip the tip of a cake pop stick in
* Step 6
Push the stick into a cake ball halfway in. Repeat for all
* Step 7
Let set in the freezer for 20 minutes
* Step 8
Melt the rest of the chocolate and get a foam block or a sturdy box with small holes poked in, enough for all your cake pops to sit in
* Step 9
Twirl each pop in the melted chocolate and gently spin to get rid of the excess. Heat the chocolate now & again to keep it runny enough to coat
* Step 10
Place in the box or block to set. They won't take long
* Step 11
Dab each sweet into the melted choc and stick to each cake pop to make an iris. You could also use ready roll fondant for this
* Step 12
Use black icing or edible pen to make the pupil of the eye and red to draw on the veiny lines
* Step 13
Any pops that don't come out smooth because the chocolate has cooled a little too much can be made into mummies instead by adding 2 dark chocolate chips for eyes. The untidy chocolate coating can be passed off as bandages!
* Step 14
I used a gluten free vegan coconut cake from my recipes, chocolate frosting made with sunflower spread, cocoa powder and icing sugar, Moo-Free brand choc chips and Whizzers brand chocolate beans, to make gluten, dairy, egg, soy & nut free pops. I also used my own white chocolate recipe which you'll find on my profile
* Step 15
You can use a fork instead of pop sticks for a bigger gruesome factor
