Start by baking your cake according to the instructions on the box or your recipe.

Let it cool completely.

Once the cake is cooled, crumble it into a large bowl using your hands or a fork. You want the pieces to be small and even.

Add a few tablespoons of frosting to the cake crumbs and mix well until it holds together but isn’t too soggy. You want the consistency to be like playdough.

Use a cakesicle mold and pack the cake mixture tightly into the mold.

Press it down firmly to ensure they hold together.

Place the filled mold in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes to set.

This makes the cakesicles easier to remove and dip.

Once the cakesicles are firm, melt your candy melts or chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second increments, stirring each time.

Dip the end of the popsicle stick into the melted chocolate before inserting them into the cakesicle to help them stay in place.

After the sticks are inserted, dip the cakesicle into the melted chocolate, making sure it's fully coated by gently swirling and rotating to coat them in an even layer of chocolate.

Gently tap the stick to remove excess chocolate.

If you'd like, add sprinkles, edible glitter, or drizzle more chocolate over the top for extra flair.

Wipe off any excess chocolate on your silicone mold and freeze for about 15 minutes until the chocolate sets.

Place the finished cakesicles on a parchment-lined tray and let them sit at room temperature until the chocolate coating hardens.

To remove the cakesicles from the molds, carefully loosen one of the corners of your silicone cakesicle mold and then peel the mold from the top to remove the entire pop.

Carefully push the sticks out of the mold. If any extra chocolate candy coating is on the outer rim of your cakesicle, use a pair of clean scissors or a paring knife to carefully trim the chocolate off.

Once the cakesicles have set at room temperature, consider placing them in individual treat bags or airtight containers for gifting or storing.
