How long do Cake Pop Magic treats last at room temperature?

They last up to two days at room temperature in an airtight container.

Can I use homemade cake instead of a boxed mix?

Yes. Homemade cake works well. It may change texture. Adjust frosting to get the right firmness.

Why do my cake pops fall off the sticks?

Common causes are warm balls, insufficient coating on the stick, or too soft a mix. Chill the balls and dip the stick tip into coating before inserting.

Can I use melted chocolate instead of candy melts?

Yes. Use tempered chocolate or add a small amount of oil to keep it smooth. Tempering gives a shiny shell.

How do I prevent grainy coating when melting candy?

Heat in short intervals and stir well. Avoid water and overheat.
