Step-by-Step Instructions for Starbucks Cake Pop Recipe
  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of cake crumbs with ½ cup of frosting. Mix thoroughly until well-blended and easy to mold.
  2. Scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into small balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter, for about 20 uniform balls.
  3. Insert a lollipop stick into the center of each cake ball, pushing it in about halfway.
  4. Place the baking sheet with the pops in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes to firm up.
  5. Using a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate candy melts according to package instructions until smooth.
  6. Dip each pop into the chocolate coating, ensuring the entire cake ball is fully covered.
  7. Insert the decorated cake pops upright into a foam block or pop stand to allow them to harden at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes.
  8. While the coating is slightly tacky, sprinkle on colorful decorations for a festive touch.
