Melt the almond bark or melting wafers in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second increments until it’s fully melted.
If using candy melts add 1 tsp of vegetable oil if the chocolate is not smooth (for use with candy melts, almond bark melts without it)
Spoon a spoonful of melted chocolate into the first mold cavity. Coat it fully taking special care to coat all the way to the rim.
Use the back of the spoon to spread the chocolate up the sides of the mold. Slide stick into the mold. They should NOT lean into the chocolate.
Wipe off any excess on the mold. Freeze for 15 mins. Remove from freezer.
Press cake pop dough into the cavities careful not to break the chocolate and slide the sticks if you need too to fill the cavity with cake pop dough.
Make sure the sticks inserted through the dough are all the same length.
Cover the top with melted chocolate and return to freezer freezing for another 10 mins.
Very carefully loosen one of the end pieces.
Start peeling the mold from the top, very carefully peel the entire pop free.
Carefully push the sticks up through the mold.
Rest on parchment lined baking sheet.
