"homemade popsicles" news and stories

When I was a kid, we had a set of popsicle molds that I loved. They produced round popsicles and the handle part had little circus animals on them. My sister and I would always fight over who got the elephant or the lion. In later years we got one of those sets with the build-in straw, that allowed you to slurp up the melting juice so that it didn't spill out all over your hands. In those days, there was just nothing better than a homemade popsicle made from orange or applejuice.

With summer undeniably here, what better time pull out those molds and make some of your own homemade frozen treats.
