1 box yellow cake mix, prepared according to package instructions
⅓ cup vanilla frosting
¼ cup white chocolate, melted
½ cup water, divided
1 ½ teaspoons gelatin, 1 packet
½ cup sugar
2 oz condensed milk
¾ cup white chocolate
light blue food coloring
purple food coloring
navy food coloring

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
Prepare the yellow cake batter according to package instructions and pour into greased pan.
Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
In a medium bowl, crumble the cake. Add vanilla frosting to give some moisture to the cake. If it is too dry add more frosting.
Using a small ice cream scoop, portion the cake and shape into a ball. Repeat with remaining cake.
Dip a popsicle stick tip into the melted white chocolate and insert into the cake balls. Freeze for at least 30 minutes.
In a small bowl, add the 3 tablespoons of water and gelatin. Let bloom for 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, combine ¼ cup (60 ml) water, sugar, and condensed milk. Bring to a boil over high heat.
Remove the pan from the heat and add the bloomed gelatin. Whisk until well combined.
Add the white chocolate to a bowl. Pour the condensed milk mixture through a sieve into the bowl of chocolate and let it sit for 2 minutes to soften the chocolate.
Using a emersion blender, blend the chocolate until smooth. Transfer the mixture into a deep container such as a mug.
Squeeze light blue, purple, then navy food coloring into the mug or bowl without stirring.
Dip the frozen cake pop into the chocolate and twist as you pull up creating a marbled pattern.
Stick in a piece of styrofoam and dry the pop completely. Repeat with remaining cake pops.
Enjoy!
