Ingredients

• 1 box of cake mix
• 2-3 tablespoon frosting
• 1 lb candy coating
• 1 box soup spoons
• Sprinkles

• Step 1

  Gather all of the ingredients.

  

• Step 2

  Bake cake according to the directions on the back of the box. The cake I chose needed eggs, oil, and water.

  

• Step 3

  Pour batter into a greased cake pan.

  

• Step 4

  Bake according to chart on cake box.

  

• Step 5

  Let cake thoroughly cool.

  #SpoonTip: Place the cake in the refrigerator to speed up the cooling process.

  

• Step 6

  Once cake is cool, add frosting and mix cake using a fork or clean hands.

  

• Step 7

  Create balls of cake and freeze for 30 minutes.

  #SpoonTip: Place plastic wrap or parchment paper on the baking sheet so that the balls do not stick to the pan.

  

• Step 8

  Melt a small amount of candy coating according to directions on bag and place a dollop on spoon.

  

• Step 9

  Place frozen cake ball on dollop of candy coating on spoon and freeze again for 10 minutes.

  

• Step 10

  Melt the rest of the candy coating and dip the spoon into the coating until the cake is completely coated.

  #SpoonTip: Pick a candy coating that goes with the occasion. I chose red because UNM’s colors are cherry and silver.

  

• Step 11

  Decorate spoon pops however you would like.

  #SpoonTip: If using sprinkles, make sure to place them on the candy coating while it’s still wet so that the sprinkles will stick.
