Once the candy melt is melted, spoon about 1-2 tbsp of the melted candy melts into the cakesicle molds
Move the cakesicle mold around to ensure that the sides are coated in the candy melts
Place the mold into the fridge for about 10 minutes
Once the chocolate is set, remove from the fridge
Take about 1-2 tbsp of the cake mixture and carefully press into the mold, make sure the side of the candy melt does not break
