In order to remove the text, you require the pen tool, the eyedrop tool, the gradient tool and the text tool. The eyedrop tool for selecting the two main colors in the gradient; the dark and light ones; one taking the place of the foreground color and the other taking the place of the background color. The pen tool for tracing around the part of the ribbon that has the text. After tracing, you convert the path to selection, then fill the selection with the gradient tool with the bi-linear effect (i think it's what it's called). In Photoshop, you can create a path, and with the text tool write on that path.
