3.9 from 5 reviews

Pebbles Pops are fun, colorful treats made by shaping Fruity Pebbles cereal bars around paper straws, dipping them in creamy vanilla candy coating, and topping with extra Fruity Pebbles for a delightful crunch and burst of flavor. Perfect for parties or a playful snack, these no-bake pops are quick and easy to prepare.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Fruity Pebbles Treats

  • 1 pan of Fruity Pebbles Treats (approximately 9×13 inches)

Candy Coating

  • 1-2 packages of vanilla CandiQuik candy coating (about 8 ounces each)

Other

  • Paper straws, cut in half (quantity depends on number of pops)
  • Additional crushed Fruity Pebbles for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Treat Bars: Allow the Fruity Pebbles Treats to fully set in their pan, then cut them into bar-sized pieces suitable for forming into balls around the paper straws.
  2. Form the Pops: Cut paper straws in half and carefully shape each Fruity Pebbles Treat bar piece around the straw, forming a ball-shaped pop that sticks securely to the straw.
  3. Melt the Candy Coating: Melt one package of vanilla CandiQuik candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, stirring occasionally until smooth and fluid.
  4. Dip the Pops: Dip each formed Fruity Pebbles Pop thoroughly into the melted CandiQuik coating, ensuring it is fully covered, then place it on waxed paper to set.
  5. Add Colorful Topping: While the coating is still wet, sprinkle the tops of the dipped pops with crushed Fruity Pebbles to add an extra splash of color and texture.
  6. Harden the Coating: Allow the candy coating to harden completely at room temperature until set and firm to the touch.
  7. Melt Additional Coating as Needed: If running low on melted CandiQuik during dipping, gently melt more as needed to maintain a smooth coating for dipping all pops.

Notes

  • Use waxed paper to prevent sticking while the coating hardens.
  • Make sure Fruity Pebbles Treats are fully set and firm before cutting and shaping.
  • Paper straws can be replaced with lollipop sticks if preferred.
  • Store finished Pebbles Pops in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • For a firmer coating, refrigerate after dipping until fully set.
