Step 1
Mix crumbled cake and frosting in a bowl until a dense dough forms. Scoop 12 evenly-sized balls and roll between your palms until smooth.
Step 2
Melt white chocolate and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring until glossy.
Step 3
Divide melted chocolate into small bowls. Add 3 drops of gel coloring to each bowl (pink, blue, purple) and stir until pastel shade.
Step 4
Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into melted chocolate, then into a cake ball to secure it.
Step 5
Dip each cake pop into a pastel chocolate bowl, then immediately roll in rainbow sprinkles before chocolate sets.
Step 6
Stand cake pops upright in a cup or bowl to set for 2 minutes, then serve immediately.
