People always say "You eat with your eyes first," so start the feast with some googly eyeball cake pops!

These edible eyeballs come in a variety of different colors, just like real eyes, so you can customize colors to reflect guests or family, just to freak them out -- look, it's your eye! Aside from the cake ball itself, this delicious delight is made essentially of sugar -- lots of candies and icing.

Nothing quite screams a Halloween treat like [bloody eyeballs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tous-les-jours-spooky-delights), so feel free to douse these in some red decorative gel, food coloring, or even sprinkles. For some added fun, [mix some of the sprinkles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-sprinkle) with [red Pop Rocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bazooka-candy-brands-halloween). Trim the straws a little shorter and stick these eyeball cake pops into a Styrofoam cone to create your own eyeball mountain.
