aking for a good cause is the best. These Pink Ribbon Cake Pops for a good cause are not only delicious, they look pretty and are sure to bring in some nice donations. Making these simple, yet elegant, Cake Pops is easy! Really, really, easy.
As I was making my cake pop batter, I added in some hot pink nonpareils. Once they were dipped and dry, I added some pink Luster Dust and Silver Luster Dust to the pops to give them a pretty shimmer.
Check out the other cake pop recipes and tutorials.
Pink Ribbon Cake Pops
Ingredients
- 1/3 of a 9×13 Sheet Cake Vanilla or Yellow
- 1/8 Cup Vanilla Frosting
- Hot Pink Nonpareils
- White Candy Melts
- Pink Candy Melts
- Hot Pink Sugar Crystals
- Light Pink Sugar Crystals
Instructions
- Bake Cake and allow to cool. Cut 1/3 of the cake and mix with paddle attachment with frosting. Add in desired amount of Hot Pink Nonpareils. I used maybe 1 1/2 Tablespoons.
- Form 12 balls using a cookie scoop and roll smooth. Place in fridge while melting candy melts.
- Melt Candy Melts in separate ceramic containers being careful not to overheat them.
- Dip 1/4 inch of lollipop stick into candy and then add cake ball. Six sticks into White and six sticks into Pink.
- Dip Cake Pops straight down and back up again, coating completely, and allowing the excess to drip off. Stand up in cake pop stand. Six White Pops and six Pink Pops.
- Paint on Luster Dust with a DRY brush. The pink got “pinker” and the white took on a pearl look.
- Put a small amount of Pink Candy into a baggie and snip off an edge. Draw on a Ribbon design and then sprinkle with Sugar Crystals. I put the Hot Pink on the white pops and Pale Pink on the pink pops.
- Stand up and allow to dry.

Transporting your Cake Pops safely
That's an impressive walk. I don't think I could do it! These pops are great, and what a great cause!
I think you could. I KNOW we could!
Wow, 39 miles! That's impressive but I'm getting winded thinking about it. What a great cause. I bought a few buttons & pins for myself and the ladies I work with so we can show our support long after October is gone. Yay to celebrating more birthdays! I hope you & your family have a great weekend.

Such a great cause, it is wonderful that you are supporting your friend in fundraising. The cake pops are adorable. Tomorrow is our neighborhood cancer walk that I chair, sure wish we had a few of those for dessert!

I love paying it forward. It was so great reading your blog post. I am so in love with the Breast Cancer's new logo, "Help save second base". Thank you so much for sharing this at Foodie Friends Friday.
Those are so pretty! I love how they shimmer 🙂
Quick question: If the pops are put in a plastic baggy, will the luster dust rub off?
Great cake pops and a great cause! You always make such impressive cake pops, Karyn! I love your work! And your so generous about sharing your knowledge. That's why I referred my readers to your tutorials in my Spider Cake Pops post this week. Thanks for all the inspiration!
