Crumble the cupcakes into a bowl and mash together with your hands. Place in the freezer for fifteen minutes to firm slightly.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and roll 1-inch sized balls with the crumbled cakes, ensuring they’re compacted well.

Lay onto the baking sheet and insert a lollipop stick into the center of each one. Pop back into the freezer for ten minutes to chill.

Melt the candy melts in the microwave. Dip each cake pop into the melted candy and allow any excess to drip off before setting back onto the baking sheet.

Once set, use a little more of the candy melt to stick the candy disc or eye to the front of each cake pop. Use the red gel to make bloodshot eyes.

If using candy discs for the eyes, use the chocolate frosting to pipe the pupil in the center of each eye.

Allow to set, then serve.
