Ingredients
- 12 cupcakes, unfrosted
- 12 ounces Red Candy Melts
- 6 ounces Green Candy Melts
- Brown Bar Type Sprinkles
- 1 tablespoon frosting
- Lollipop Sticks
- Paper Straws
Instructions
- Take the cupcakes and crumble them into a bowl. Mix in about a tablespoon of frosting. Mix well.
- You're looking for the constancy of play dough, add a little more frosting if needed but don't make it too soggy.
- Roll tablespoon size balls of dough into ball/apple shapes. Pop them into the freezer for about 20 minutes.
- Once chilled, melt red candy melts according to package directions. Dip each cake ball into the melted candy melts, tap off excess and set on a piece of foil or parchment paper to harden.
- It doesn't matter if they're smooth, you're going to cover most of it with green "poison".
- I can normally cover about 12 apples with 12 ounces of red candy melts.
- Adding The Poison to the Poison Apples:
- Now, it's time to add the green poison drip to the apples.
- Melt the green candy melts according to the package directions. I normally only do half of the bag at a time with the green because you don't want it all to harden in the piping bag while you're working on them.
- Fill a piping bag, fitted with a small #2 tip, with the green candy melts. Piping 2 circles and a upside down tear drop onto the front of the "apple". This will be the eyes and nose. .
- Next, pipe some drips around the apple and fill in the top half of the apple with the green candy melts.
- Add some green candy melts to a brown sprinkle and stick it on top for the stem.
- Let them sit for about 10 minutes or so until the candy melts harden.
- Stick a lollipop stick into the bottom of the cake pop and then slide a paper straw over the lollipop stick to dress it up.
