Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cake: Bake red velvet cake according to package instructions or your recipe. Cool completely and crumble into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Mix with Frosting: Add cream cheese frosting to the crumbled cake. Mix until dough-like consistency forms, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Shape the Cake Pops: Form mixture into 1-inch balls and chill in refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
  4. Melt the Coating: Melt white chocolate in intervals, stirring until smooth. Cool slightly before dipping cake pops.
  5. Dip the Cake Pops: Insert lollipop sticks in each pop, dip into melted white chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.
  6. Drizzle with Red Candy Melts: Melt red candy melts and drizzle over cake pops to create a 'bloody' effect.
  7. Final Touches and Set: Place cake pops upright in a stand to set completely, about 15-30 minutes. Decorate with sprinkles while chocolate is wet.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Once set, enjoy your spooky treats at any Halloween gathering.
