1

Prepare the Cake

Bake your favorite cake according to the instructions. Let it cool completely, then crumble it into fine pieces in a large bowl. Don't you worry if it feels like you're destroying a beautiful cake - it's all for the sake of spooky deliciousness!

2

Mix in the Frosting

Add a generous amount of frosting to the crumbled cake and mix it well. You want the mixture to be pliable enough to form into balls, but not too sticky. It should hold its shape when rolled. Think of it like the perfect monster clay!

3

Shape the Monster Eyeballs

Take a small portion of the cake mixture and roll it between your palms to form a smooth ball. These will be the base of your monstrous eyes! Repeat until you've used up all the mixture. Don't worry if they're not all perfect - monsters come in all shapes and sizes!

4

Insert the Stick and Chill

Insert a lollipop stick into each cake ball, making sure it goes about halfway through. Place the cake pops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, then pop them in the fridge for about 30 minutes. This will give them time to firm up and get ready for their ghoulish makeover!

5

Create the Red Veins

Using red decorating gel or melted red candy melts, carefully draw squiggly lines on the surface of each cake pop. These eerie red veins will bring your monster eyeballs to life! Feel free to get creative with the patterns - monsters love their unique style!

6

Add the Creepy Pupils

Using a small amount of black frosting or melted chocolate, create the pupils on each cake pop. Aim for uneven shapes to give your monster eyeballs a wild and mysterious look. Remember, the scarier, the better!

7

Let the Monsters Set

Return the cake pops to the fridge for another 30 minutes to let all the decorations set. This way, your monster eyeball cake pops will be ready to be devoured by your unsuspecting guests!
