Frequently asked questions
The key to softer and non-icy popsicles is to add some sort of yogurt like Greek yogurt or full-fat coconut milk.
If your popsicles aren’t creamy or milk-based, then we recommend that you add a tablespoon of cornstarch. This will prevent the popsicle from being too icy and hard to eat.
If you don’t have popsicle sticks don’t worry. There are other things that you can use in place of popsicle sticks. You can use reusable paper or metal straws.
