1. Gold Glitter Cake Pops
These bright, moist and glitzy lemon and vanilla cake pops bring the perfect summer flavor!
2. Glitter Lollipops
All I know is that if I show up at a party that has these, I might never leave. They are so gorgeous and sparkly!
3. Homemade Gold Cotton Candy
You might not realize it, but candy floss is actually not too hard to make! Once you master the technique, you'll be hooked on spinning your own stunning and delicious gold stuff. It's not as cloudlike as the machine-made cotton candy, but the unique texture takes on a life of its own. Plus, it doubles as a festive decoration. Can't complain.
4. Glitter Ice Cream Cones
You might not think it, but these luster dust-brushed cones are as easy as they come -- you can even make them with store-bought ice cream cones. Alternately, you can make a slightly different version like so.
5. Mini Mint Chocolate Chip Doughnuts with Glitter
Obviously, you can use just about any donut recipe you like. If, for example, you love gluten and hate mint -- this is a great basic donut recipe too.
6. Pink Champagne Glitter Cake
Pink champagne, peach preserves, vanilla buttercream and a ton of edible glitter -- it's the perfect summery cake for any occasion!
