These easy and adorable white chocolate spring candy pops not only look good but taste good. In the last few years, I’ve found I really enjoy white chocolate. I’m using it more in recipes, like my white chocolate orange pecan scones and winter white hot chocolate to name a few. I choose to use a good white chocolate for a couple of reasons. First, taste and second, a better quality melts better. Trust me on the last part.
I have made candies and bark with strictly candy melts but I really think taste is sacrificed. Plus I think that it’s just too sweet. I prefer to use that good white chocolate and swirl in colored candy melts. Get kids in the kitchen to help make these candy pops. They will have a great time swirling the colors. My teenage boys had fun knowing they could indulge after the photo shoot.
Let’s talk about the cute sprinkles. They are from sponsor Sprinkle Pop. This mixture is called Egg Hunt Sprinkle Mix. The company offers free shipping on US orders and no minimum order. The sprinkle mixes have a long shelf life and are manufactured in the US. My brown sugar pecan Christmas tree cookies use Sprinkle Pop sprinkles too.
These sweet spring candy pops would be a great addition to any Easter celebration. Wrap them up individually for Easter baskets, for a school party treat or as a favor for a spring luncheon with friends.

Recipe Notes
How cute are these for a basket suffer for Easter! A little wrap and a bow would make these such a fun addition to the baskets.
Those lollipops will be a bit hit wherever you go!
This is such a fun & easy idea! I totally agree about using only candy melts – their flavor is not nearly as good as when you use real chocolate!
