# What You'll Need:

→ Cake Base

01 - 1 box chocolate or vanilla cake mix (prepared according to package instructions)

→ Frosting

02 - 240 ml (1 cup) frosting of choice, flavored or classic

→ Coating

03 - 200 g white chocolate melts

→ Decorations

04 - Red and green food coloring for vein effects
05 - 100 g dark chocolate chips for pupil detail

→ Assembly

06 - Lollipop sticks, quantity based on number of cake balls

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven as directed on cake mix box. Prepare and bake the cake according to instructions. Allow to cool completely.
02 - Break cooled cake into fine crumbs using hands or a fork until texture resembles fine sand.
03 - Add frosting to crumbled cake and mix until evenly combined and moist but not sticky. Adjust frosting quantity if needed.
04 - Roll mixture into 2.5 cm diameter balls and place on parchment-lined baking sheet.
05 - Gently insert lollipop sticks into each ball, then freeze on baking sheet for 30 minutes to firm up.
06 - Melt white chocolate melts in microwave-safe bowl using short bursts, stirring frequently until smooth.
07 - Dip frozen cake balls fully into melted white chocolate, allowing excess to drip off before placing back on parchment.
08 - Before coating sets, press one dark chocolate chip onto each pop to form the pupil.
09 - Using toothpick or squeeze bottle, drizzle red and green food coloring over white chocolate to simulate veins.
10 - Allow cake pops to fully set at room temperature or refrigerate to speed up. Arrange on a platter to serve.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Ensure cake is completely cooled before crumbling to prevent sogginess. Freezing strengthens structure for dipping.
