Fruit Juice Pops |
Pureed fruit gives you a thicker, pulpy pop. Fruit juice gives you a lighter pop. My kids prefer pops made from juice. I like pops from puree.

PRO TIPS:
1. Sweetening Fruit - If you need to sweeten a fruit puree or juice, use powdered sugar or simple syrup. It dissolves and blends quickly and won't leave granules of sugar in your pop. (To make simple syrup combine 1 part water and 1 part sugar. Heat until sugar has melted. Cool and use.)
2. Use a chop stick or a straw to open the ice pop sleeve before you pour in mixture. It will just make your life easier.
3. When serving a frozen ice pop, cut the zip closure off. This makes pops easy to enjoy.
4. You are only limited by your imagination so be creative!
Here are a few other ideas:
* Freeze leftover breakfast smoothies.
* Freeze Yogurt and toss them in a lunch box (DIY Gogurt!)
* Make jello in ice pop sleeves
* Layer various fruits, juices and smoothie for rainbow pops
WHERE TO BUY MOLDS
I typically buy ice pop molds from Amazon. I pay about $10 for 100. They are also available at Target, Walmart and similar stores.
