Form Cake Balls
Using your hands, take portions of the crumbled cake and roll them into 1-inch balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Melt Chocolate Coating
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 2 cups of chocolate coating in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until fully melted and smooth.

Dip Cake Pop Sticks
Dip the end of each cake pop stick into the melted chocolate, then insert it about halfway into each cake ball to help secure it.

Coat Cake Pops
Once all sticks are inserted, dip each cake ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.

Add Sprinkles
If desired, immediately sprinkle some sprinkles on top of the wet chocolate coating before it sets.

Set the Cake Pops
Place the coated cake pops upright in a Styrofoam block or a cake pop stand. Allow them to set at room temperature or refrigerate until the chocolate hardens.
