Yo I read a review of that Zoku thing, and it apparently works astoundingly well. I think it was a Cook's Illustrated review, even, not just some chucklehead.

I have a set of popsicle molds, just the old plastic kind, that I've used a couple of times. I've made juice pops, and also chocolate pudding pops. They normally come out kind of crystalized, though, which is unfortunate. The Zoku may prevent that.

Ethan. Do you wrap the molds in plastic? That should prevent the frosting.

thanks for the tips!

the prob i have with the zoku is 1.) cost (50 bucks!) 2.) IT ONLY MAKES 3 AT A TIME! and you don't have anywhere to store said pops (unless you buy the zoku carrying case.)

if i was a bored housewife with kids I'd get the zoku!

NO MEAT

(imaginary)libi said, (449 days ago)

i bet carrot juice popsicles would actually be pretty tasty.

rink said, (449 days ago)

MWAHAHAHAHA. SHATTERER OF DREEEAAAMMMSSSS


if y'all ever visit my neck of the woods, i'll take you all for locopops!

rink said, (449 days ago)

oh, and also, they totally make stick-less popsicles (i.e., a block of flavored ice) that include meat for dogs in the summertime at locopops.

There's a popsicle food truck down here that goes to all the meet ups. POPSICLES ARE OLD MEME TWIGZ.

But whatever I read on a review of that Zoku thingie that you can actually make like 9 at a time before you have to re-freeze the thing, so that's not so bad. Certainly better than only 3 at a time. I guess you'd have to buy extra sticks though?

IDK LOOKS KINDA COOL YOU SHOULD BUY IT TWIGBY

Naturelle Rivera said, (449 days ago)

OH MAN AND MAKE SOME KEY LIME PIE POPS AND MAIL ME SOME

Naturelle Rivera said, (449 days ago)

One of my dogs loves fruit popsicles. He'd eat a whole box if I let him. He also used to eat mangos straight off the tree the little monster.

the way i get by said, (449 days ago)

well there's 3 slots and you can make 9 popsicles before you have to freeze it again

but since there's no way to STORE the popsicles (unless you buy the zoku carrying case) you have to eat them then make another 3
