The Range Rover of Popsicle Makers

 

With the weather creeping up to almost 20 degrees these days, people are pulling out their garden furniture and baring those oh so white shoulders…which means it is also time to start thinking about summer’s healthiest treat, the popsicle.

Homemade popsicles give you another chance to ensure your kids are eating at least one of their five a day as you can control what your children are consuming by filling the Pops with non-concentrated juices, innocent smoothies or organic juices!

You could run down to your local pound shop to grab the run of the mill Popsicle maker that will break half way through the summer and somehow give juice freezer burn, or you could pop online for the ‘Range Rover’ of popsicle makers and and buy the Zoku Quick Pop Maker (£39,95).

Made of non-stick cast-aluminium moulds that enable rapid uniform freezing, the Zoku Quick Pop Maker makes nine frozen popsicles in seven minutes and can be found online here.
