How to Make Christmas Tree Cake Pops
  1. Prepare the Cake: Start by baking your chosen cake (vanilla or chocolate). Allow it to cool completely before moving on to the next step.
  2. Crumble the Cake: Break the cooled cake into fine crumbs. Aim for a texture that resembles sand.
  3. Mix the Ingredients: Gradually add your frosting to the cake crumbs. Mix until it reaches a dough-like consistency.
  4. Shape the Trees: Mold the mixture into cone shapes to resemble mini Christmas trees. Freeze for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Melt the Coating: Melt the green candy melts, adding coconut oil for consistency.
  6. Insert the Sticks: Dip the end of each cake pop stick into the melted candy and insert it into the base of each chilled cake tree.
  7. Dip the Cake Pops: Submerge each tree in the melted candy, ensuring it is completely coated.
  8. Decorate with Delight: While coating is wet, add sprinkles and drizzle with white chocolate.
