Hop on Pop(sicle)

by Chocolate-Covered Katie on April 20, 2009

Hop.

Pop.

We like to Hop.

We like to Hop on top of Pop.

 .

  

 A few Easters ago, while we were living in China, we came across bunny popsicle molds :) .  Of course we had to buy them. 

 

This year, I rediscovered the popsicle molds hiding in one of our boxes of Easter decorations.  It’s been non-stop popsicle making ever since!

There are so many choices!

 

·         Juice pops

·         Homemade yogurt pops

·         Pumpkin Pie pops

·         coconut milk pops

·         …or even Any-flavor Pudding pops!

.

 

.And don’t forget about the chocolate possibilities:

·        Chocolate Mousse pops

·        chocolate soymilk pops  

·        Chocolate Pudding pops…

 

 

Below, an Apple-sicle (apple juice pop)

And an Acai-sicle (acai juice).

(The “recipe” for the acai-sicle can be found in this post)

.

 

I’m having entirely too much fun with this.

 

 

 

 

Now what about that Mystery Grain from this post?   

The mystery grain is yet another one of those awesome-licious Eden Grains: Rye Flakes.

 

Rye-licious Chocolate-Covered Meals:

Tex Mex Chili, steamed green beans, Quickie Coleslaw, and mystery grain du juor

.

 

z-246More of (almost) the same: Tex Mex Chili,  kale chips, Quickie Coleslaw, and rye pilaf

 

Back to popsicles for a minute: What would be your Perfect Popsicle flavor?

Orangesicles, cranberry-sicles, banana-sicles, poma-sicles… or perhaps a Margarita-sicle?  Seems like almost anything would work in popsicle form.  Spinach-sicle? 

Well, almost aything!

Oh man, I remember making popsicles all the time when I was a kid. I loved busting out that popsicle mold and making all sorts of juicy flavoured pops. Alas, I don’t think my mom has it anymore :( I should buy a new one. HA!

Cutest popsicles I ever did see!

Aw man, this reminds me of this phase I went through in high school. I became obsessed with my popsicle maker and would freeze just about anything. I made some pretty killer choco-nana pudding pops!

They look great and your polka dot nails look so cute!

I think strawberry banana popsicles would be delicious and very refreshing for this 90+ weather we have been having lately!

I think we actually tried making margarita-sicles once, but the tequila kept them from freezing (I think my dad might have been a bit heavy-handed with it). Oh well, the slush was good.

I loved the ones we made last year with strawberry puree and coconut milk.

OH OH KATIE … you should freeze some of those coconut milk (turtle mountain ones?) those wud taste so awesome I bet!

you lost me with those nails.

LOVE.

necesseaties April 21, 2009 at 11:39 am

Love your nails xD!
They compliment your colorful variety-filled meals (hahha that sounded weird but true!)
My ideal popsicle would have to be a custardy creme brulee with frozen raspberries in it *pardon my drooling

I mix almond or coconut milk into my homemade pops to make them creamier. The almond milk (or even sesame milk) also adds protein and calcium which is a total bonus.

Great nails and great lollies! On a hot summer’s day, I prefer ice lollies rather than creamy ones and I’m quite partial to cider lollies. Yum!

Happy Vegan Lady April 21, 2009 at 2:07 pm

And the rye flakes sound really interesting. I’ll have to get some the next time I go shopping.

Your nails = awesome

Too cute and tasty! Except not sure I’d be a fan of a spinach-sicle… ;)

I love the coconut milk pop idea! I can’t wait to start making fun seasonal foods like popsicles and homemade ice cream. Our temps will FINALLY hit the 80s by this weekend and I CANNOT WAIT!

Mmm, those acai-sicles look totally yummy! What cute pops–and such potential. It’s about 90 degrees in my apartment right now; I could totally go for one of those pops!

Hahahaha! I actually have these exact (i’m pretty sure they’re exact) bunny moulds in the cupboard somewhere. I’ll have to dig them out!!

Adorable popsicle stick!! I love it!

Reply

Sina April 22, 2009 at 2:07 pm

Oooh, that reminds me of searching our popsicle-molds!
I’d like to try a Pina Colada-popsycle (minus the alcohol) because I like coconut-flavoured stuff!

Reply

Chocolate-Covered Katie April 22, 2009 at 3:14 pm

Sina,

I’m right there with you. Anything with coconut is awesome in my book! (And if it’s coconut-chocolate, that’s even better!)

What a hoppy little friend! Thanks for the punkin’ recipe. I always have cans of pumpkin lurking in my cabinets that need using.
