The footballs are pretty straight forward. Make your cake pop batter and shape them into football shapes. Dip them into chocolate and let them dry. Then add white for the laces and you’re done.

1. Shape 1.5 tablespoons of cake pop batter into a square shape. Don’t make a cube, you want it to be thinner than wider. Just don’t make it so thin that the stick will poke through. I didn’t measure, but I’d say my squares were about 1 inch wide by 1/2 inch thick. Place them on a cookie sheet lines with waxed paper, cover with waxed paper and refrigerate.

3. Melt some green candy melts. 1 minute in the microwave in a ceramic mug, give them a stir, then 45 seconds at 70% power and stir until completely melted.

4. Dip 1/4 inch of the lollipop stick into the green candy then insert it 3/4 of the way into the cake pop square. Complete adding all the sticks to the pops. Dip the pops completely, straight down and back up again. These are heavier so be gentle with them. Carefully tap off the excess candy with the pop hanging down then sprinkle on some green sugar sprinkles to give the look of AstroTurf to the lower half of the pop. Stand up the pop to dry. Complete dipping all the pops.

5. Melt white candy. Dip the dry cake pops straight down to cover the top half of the green. Carefully tap off the excess candy and add the rainbow nonpareils. Stand and let dry.

7. Once the pops are dry, use a sharp knife to carve out a small divot from the top of the pop. Write your message in the word bubble and attach with some melted white candy.
