Cakesicle molds
Popsicle sticks
Instructions
1. Bake the cake according to package directions and let it cool completely.

3. Mix in frosting a spoonful at a time until the mixture holds together like dough.
4. Scoop small portions and press firmly into cakesicle molds.
5. Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for 30–45 minutes until firm.
6. Melt candy melts with coconut oil until smooth and glossy.

Notes
Use different colored melts for a variety of monsters — green for Frankenstein, purple for witches, orange for pumpkins!
If the candy coating thickens, reheat it gently in the microwave for 10 seconds.
Store cakesicles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
