You Will Need:

  • 1 Box of White Cake Mix + Ingredients to make
  • 1 Tub of White Frosting
  • Food Coloring
  • Black or Brown Candy Melts
  • Gold Sugar Sprinkles
  • Parchment Paper
  • Small Bowls
  • Cookie Sheet

Instructions:

  1. Make your cake mix according to the directions.  
  2. Pour your mix into 6 small bowls and tint each bowl a different color - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
  3. Line a cupcake pan with liners and pour each color into a cupcake holder.  My mix made two cupcakes of each color.
  4. Cook according to the package instructions.  Once cooked, allow the cupcakes to cool.
  5. Once cooled, crumble the cupcakes one color at a time.  
  6. Add a dollop of icing.  
  7. Thoroughly mix the frosting and cake together.  
  8. Repeat for each color.  Pop your cake mixes into the freezer for a few minutes to help it set.
  9. Line a cookie sheet with wax paper or parchment paper.  Take a small pinch of each color and roll together to form a ball.
  10. Place on a cookie sheet and put into the freezer to form for a few minutes.
  11. While it is in the freezer, melt your candy melts according to the package instructions.
  12. Coat your rainbow cake balls in the candy mets and back into the freezer for a minute!  
  13. Dip the top of your cake pop into the candy melts and cover with the gold sugar sprinkles.  It will now resemble a pot of gold! Freeze for another minute until fully set.
