Yes, the so-called "bubblegum" corns are simply snowcorns that are line-bred for more vivid pink coloration. There are so many different types of pink corns in the hobby now, such as coral snows, coral ghosts, specter ghosts, and strawberry's of all these morphs too that it makes your head spin. The precise genetics behind many of these high-pink corns aren't well understood, or even known alot of the time. It takes many years of work to isolate some of these genes, and even THEN, one has to know the origins with certainty along with breeding trials. But those bubblegum corns did not originate from hybridization.
