If you’ve seen pictures of the Kim Kardashian engagement ring, you know it’s one ring that doesn’t skimp on sparkle (at $2 million, it better not!). Now, the candy brand Bazooka, which makes [Ring Pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milk-chocolate-ring-pop), has recreated Kardashian’s hefty 20.5 carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond ring in a sparkling candy version!

The candified remodel of the $2 milion ring is similar to Kardashian’s in that it features a large central stone, encompassed on all sides by smaller “diamonds.” In comparison, the real-life Kim Kardashian engagement ring features a huge emerald-cut diamond in the middle and two flanking trapezoid-shaped diamonds.

This sweet remake of the Kim Kardashian engagement ring is a special edition treat from Bazooka. It will be given to three lucky [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hardees-show-us-your-meemaws) fans who write the winning story about their own dream engagement proposals on Ring Pop’s Facebook page.
