Yield about 36 cake pops

Steps:
- For the cake pops: Prepare and bake the cake according to the package directions for a 9-by-13-inch pan. Let cool completely.
- Meanwhile, put the white chocolate and heavy cream in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high in 30 second intervals until melted and smooth, stirring halfway through, about 1 minute. (You can also use a double boiler.) Carefully remove from the microwave and add the orange extract; stir to combine.
- When cool, crumble the cake finely into a large bowl and add the dried cranberries and orange-white chocolate ganache. Mix with a rubber spatula or your hands until the mixture is very well combined, completely moistened and holds together when pinched.
- Using a 3/4-ounce scoop, scoop rounded mounds of the mixture and shape into balls and place on a baking sheet. You should have about 36 balls. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
- For the white chocolate shell: Put the white chocolate chips and vegetable shortening in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high in 30 second intervals until melted and smooth, stirring halfway through, about 1 minute. (You can also use a double boiler.) Carefully remove from the microwave and stir once more to make sure no lumps remain.
- Dip the tip of a lollipop stick into the chocolate shell and stick halfway into a cake ball. Dip the entire cake ball in the chocolate shell, letting any excess drip off, then press the stick into the Styrofoam block to stand upright. Repeat with the remaining balls and sticks. Refrigerate the cake pops until completely chilled and set, about 1 hour.
- For the mirror glaze: Sprinkle the gelatin over 1/4 cup water in a small bowl; stir and set aside 5 minutes. Combine the remaining 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan with the granulated sugar and sweetened condensed milk. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat until the sugar has dissolved, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, then add the gelatin mixture and stir to dissolve.
- Put the white chocolate chips in a large bowl and set a fine-mesh strainer on top. Pour the gelatin mixture through the strainer to catch any small lumps; remove the strainer. Let stand 5 minutes for the chocolate to soften, then stir with a rubber spatula until smooth. Tint with food coloring (divide the glaze in half if you are using more than 1 color), then let sit, stirring occasionally, until thickened and a thermometer registers 90 degrees F. Transfer to a tall, wide glass container (such as a wide-mouth mason jar) for easy dipping.
- Working one at a time, dip the cake pops into the mirror glaze to completely coat letting any excess drip off. Return to the foam board (it may continue to drip for a minute or two). Transfer to the refrigerator to set completely, about 1 hour. (Even after setting, mirror glaze stays sticky, so make sure to space the pops apart).
- Using a small, clean art brush, dust the peanut butter cups with edible gold pearl dust, then place one on top of each cake pop "ornament" (see Cook's Note). Keep chilled until ready to serve.

Bake until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, 60-65 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before removing from bowls to wire racks to cool completely., For frosting, in a small bowl, beat confectioners' sugar and butter until smooth. Add 3 tablespoons cream and salt; beat until light and fluffy, adding an additional tablespoon of cream if needed to achieve desired consistency. Cover and set aside., Using a serrated knife, level the top (flat side) of each cake. To assemble, place a teaspoon of frosting onto cake plate; place one cake layer, rounded side down onto cake plate. Frost flat side of cake and top with remaining cake later; frost outside of cake, taking care to smooth the frosting as much possible. Refrigerate until frosting is set, 15-20 minutes., Meanwhile, for fondant, in a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 teaspoons water and marshmallows. Microwave on high for 30 seconds; stir. Microwave until completely melted and smooth, stirring every 30 seconds, about 30- 60 seconds longer, adding an additional water if needed. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer. Add shortening, beat until melted. Add confectioners' sugar, a little at a time, and beat until combined., Generously dust counter and hands with additional confectioners' sugar.

Remove 1/2 cup of the fondant; wrap tightly and set aside. Tint remaining fondant desired shade of red with food coloring paste. , Roll red fondant into a 17-inch that is 1/8-in. thick. Carefully roll fondant around rolling pin; unroll fondant over cake, carefully smoothing with hands and spreading to avoid wrinkles. Trim fondant, leaving 1/2-inch around base of cake. Carefully tuck fondant under cake. Roll reserved white fondant to 1/8-in. thickness; cut with assorted snowflake-shaped cookie cutters; reserve scraps and cover. Brush back of snowflakes very lightly with water; adhere to cake, pressing gently. Decorate with nonpareils; let stand until set. Using reserved white fondant, roll to 1/8th-inch.
