One for you...
Three for me...
And I thought I was cool when I made juice pops with less water so the kids didn't chip their teeth on them while talking about how much they suck.
Of course someone had to "Martha-size" the homemade Popsicles, and take it to to such a sophisticated level that will make your friends turn green with envy and want to talk about you behind your back.
I must admit, though, they had me at the Thai Iced Tea and Blueberry Cheesecake Pops...
With "Pops!: Icy Treats for Everyone," by Krystina Castella, not only will you learn how to say Ice Pop in 12 languages including Swedish and ASL (OK, this part I find absolutely superfluous and otherwise useless), but you will learn the basics such as which "bases" to use, how to get a creamy smooth texture, and freezing times.
You can find just about every possible "mix-in" or topping sure to inspire you to create something fun, festive, and surprising.
Personally, I find the most practical part of this book the section on alcohol pops. It shows you how to make a martini pop among many others, and shows you how to get the most alcohol in the pop (since alcohol freezes at a much lower temperature) such as by marinating your fruit, cookies, or cake in the alcohol before adding to the mixture.
Sounds like a party to me.
