Instructions
Melt the candy melts until smooth, stirring gently to avoid air bubbles.
Spread a thin layer inside each mold, insert the popsicle stick while soft, and let it set. Add a second layer for a sturdier shell.
Crumble the cooled cake and mix with a few tablespoons of frosting until soft and moldable. Add more frosting gradually if needed.
Press the cake mixture into the hardened shells, leaving a little space at the top.
Cover with melted chocolate and smooth the surface. Let it set completely before removing.
Gently release from the molds, letting them sit at room temperature briefly if they stick.
Pipe bunny ears and feet onto parchment, let them harden, then attach with melted chocolate. Add a pink nose, eyes, and whiskers.
For carrot designs, drizzle orange chocolate over an orange base and add green on top for leaves.
For baby chicks, use a yellow base, pipe wings and a tuft, then add a beak, feet, and tiny eyes. Adjust details with a toothpick if needed.
Finish by drizzling colored chocolate and adding sprinkles while wet. Let everything set before serving.
