We received a Zoku Quick Pop Maker last Christmas and opened it just a few days ago after all the hullabaloo of the season settled down.
I rarely feed Anya ice cream and other frozen delights. Got to keep her sugar intake in check for the sake of maintaining her weight and thus, her legs. But of course that does not stop her from begging for some, especially this summer. Thank goodness for this Christmas gift.
Because now, I can make popsicles on demand and control the ingredients.
Just place the Zoku base in the freezer for 24 hours. Take it out of the fridge, place the re-usable pop sticks and pour juice. You'll have a popsicle to hand over to your eager child in about 9 minutes. Way cooler than using molds!
Growing up as a kid in a tropical country, my mum always made sure our freezer is stacked with "ice candy". She or my aunt will regularly make different flavors from whichever fruit is in season. I particularly love coconut and mango.

But because the plastic casing is hard to find here, I had no choice but to use popsicle molds. But as I said, the Zoku is way better and cooler.
How do you keep cool this summer?

9 minutes?
That's WAY faster than the tupperware pops I had when my kids were little. but I won't be buying one of these machines, I simply have no space for it. But I might get some tupperware type pops again because I think I'd like to try fruit flavours like you're doing. I like the idea of pineapple/coconut; rockmelon/watermelon.
