Hi, I'm Kristyn

The baker behind
the sprinkles.

I'm Kristyn Dingman — a wife, a mom of two hilarious boys with a supportive husband, and a treat-making machine fueled by coffee and chaos.

Creativity has always been my jam — whether it's photography, graphic design, or styling my dinner plate just right (for Instagram, obviously). But lately? I'm knee-deep in melted chocolate and rainbow sprinkles, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

What started as a fun outlet during a snack-fueled spiral turned into a full-blown passion. Making sweets lets me blend all my creative loves into one delicious form — and share it with you!

Life around here is messy, funny, a little wild, and totally full of flavor. I believe the best things in life are homemade, slightly imperfect, and shared with people you love. Now let's get poppin'!

The story behind the name

Ding + Dingman = Ding Pops

Ding Pops is named after us — the Dingman family. Two boys, one very patient husband, a whole lot of sprinkles, and a last name that was basically begging to become a cake-pop pun.

Ding Pops is a family affair. Between school runs, soccer games, and a kitchen that always smells like melted chocolate, it grew out of something simple: I love making people smile.

Since 2024, it's gone from a fun idea to a business I'm genuinely proud of — one custom order, one happy celebration at a time.

The design story

I designed this brand myself.

From the bitten-cookie logo to the sprinkle-inspired color palette, the whole Ding Pops identity is my own design work — built from the ground up to feel playful, warm, and a little bit premium.

Curious about the process? I broke down the branding, packaging, and results in a case study.

What I'm about

Handmade joy, one bite at a time.

Made with care

Baked, dipped, and decorated by hand in small batches, so every treat looks and tastes like it was made just for your day.

Your vision, in sprinkles

Bring a color palette, a theme, or a photo. I'll design treats that match your event down to the little details.

Proudly local

A proudly female-owned, home-based business — made in Peoria and shared across the greater Phoenix area, from Glendale to Scottsdale, Surprise, and Anthem.

Let's make something sweet.
