- Using a mini cookie scoop, make cake balls by scooping out some cake pop mixture and rolling between your clean or gloved hands to make evenly round balls.
- Melt the almond bark/candy coating in a bowl and dip a sucker stick into it, then add it to the cake pop until halfway inserted and place on a baking sheet with the stick side up (repeat until all cake pops have a sucker stick in them).
- One at a time, swirl a cake pop in the remaining melted almond bark to coat it and top with patriotic sprinkles while still warm.
