I love a white ultra fish 14mm from ub baits but he isn't doing any custom orders no more (good thing I order loads before he stopped) so I would go cc Moore northern special +

Should get more response if you put it in the bait section.

Whichever brand you use, none of the high viz pop ups put out unadulterated food signals like a proper food bait, thus you're mainly but not completely going for the colour. in terms of colour recommendation whilst you can go for eye wateringly bright I've noticed a definite edge in slightly subdued white colours, almost the colour of the inside of white bread, a cream colour if you will. something to consider?

My stand outs over the years have been DNA Milky malts, white sticky krills, Northern Specials. I'd use all with confidence.

Mainline milky toffee seem to produce consistently wherever I have taken them, along with northern specials which are my go to hookbait all year round if I'm using a bright hookbait. Something about them milky toffee that seem to get me a bite when all else fails, they just work.

RH Ballistic B pop ups.
Used them for a few years now and in spring they often beat the pineapple hi-attract baits.

Just pick one from a reputable company and you won't go too far wrong. I'm a big fan of the northern specials, but as said you'll get a hundred different answers.

Just pick one and worry more about where you put it than what brand or flavour it is.

Northern Specials and Nash Citrus are the ones I've found most consistent over the years.
Both consistent fish catchers and consistent buoyancy, both important IMO.

I did pretty well on some mainline cell white pop ups last year as the weather got a bit warmer.

By way of a tangent, if white is your colour and you aren't casting too far, you can do the business on a bit of bread fished as a pop up...
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
