Spooky Blood Drip Cake Pops

A delicious and macabre blood drip cake pops recipe featuring a moist cake center and a white chocolate shell with realistic red drips.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cake pops 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 box (15.25 oz) vanilla or white cake mix (baked and cooled)
1/2 cup cream cheese frosting
16 oz white candy melts or white chocolate
4 oz red candy melts
1 tsp vegetable oil
24 lollipop sticks

Instructions

Step 1: Crumble the pre-baked and cooled cake into a large bowl until it forms fine crumbs.
Step 2: Add the cream cheese frosting to the crumbs and mix thoroughly until a dough-like consistency is formed.
Step 3: Roll the mixture into 24 even-sized balls (about 1.5 inches in diameter) and place them on a parchment-lined tray.
Step 4: Chill the cake balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 to 60 minutes until firm.
Step 5: Melt a small amount of white candy melts. Dip the tip of a lollipop stick into the chocolate and insert it halfway into a cake ball.
Step 6: Melt the remaining white candy melts in a deep bowl. Dip each cake ball into the coating, rotating gently to cover completely.
Step 7: Allow the white coating to set completely before proceeding to the drip stage.
Step 8: Melt the red candy melts and stir in the vegetable oil to create a fluid consistency.
Step 9: Using a toothpick or small spoon, apply the red chocolate to the top edge of the cake pop, allowing it to run down the sides in a drip pattern.
Step 10: Place the finished cake pops in a stand or styrofoam block to set completely before serving.

Notes

Ensure the cake pops are very cold before dipping in the white chocolate to prevent them from falling off the sticks.
