Then gradually add the remaining chopped chocolate to the melted chocolate, stirring, so it melts in. You could use a different cake for the filling. As long as you make sure to include frosting to hold the mixture together, you could use a classic vanilla sponge or any other flavoured cake. Again with the bats, a little patience helps. You need to overlay the ends of each bat section so the pattern repeats properly and the skill is in keeping the cut out love as you carefully lay it in place. Remove the chocolate from the heat and set aside around 1/3 of the melted chocolate - keep it in a warm place, so it doesn't set. However, some ingredients like sprinkles, candy melts or candy eyes might contain animal-derived ingredients like shellac. Shellac is made using insects and is often used in candy to give products a shiny coating. The recipe will be vegetarian if you can choose to buy ingredients with no derived animal products.

Then, place 1/4 of your chopped chocolate into a bain-marie or heatproof bowl over a pot of boiling water, and melt the chocolate until it is 50 degrees centigrade while gently stirring to ensure it evenly melts. You need to use a chocolate fudge cake, candy melts, chocolate, candy eyes, and sprinkles to make Halloween cake pops. Chocolate fudge cakes include flour, and the other ingredients all include sugar.

Halloween is believed to have been initially a Gaelic celebration to honour the dead called Samhain. The original Gaelic festival involved making food to honour the dead. Some scholars believe Samhain became All Saints (or All Souls) Day, which eventually became Halloween. The new Christian version of the celebration kept some elements, including making food to honour the dead. One All Saints recipe was 'Soul Cakes' made with sweet ingredients and saffron, which were left for souls or shared between Christened people. Over the years, the celebration grew to reflect contemporary tastes, including sweet treats like candy and cakes. Halloween, as we know it today, is heavily influenced by the many Irish-Americans who emigrated in the 20th century and popularised the festival there.

So, there are often vegan cakes available in larger supermarkets or from vegan or health stores.

As you can see, it's much more complex to use melted chocolate, so it's probably better to save this recipe for when you can find candy melts. Can I make my own cake instead of using a store-bought one? This recipe uses a store-bought chocolate fudge cake, so you don't need to use a stand mixer.
