THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO HOMEMADE POPSICLES
When it comes to making homemade popsicles, there are some guidelines and tips that can make the difference between failure and success. And that’s why you might want to read the master article on this subject.
Different ingredients freeze at different temperatures, thus making the process of making homemade popsicles a little tricky.
Plus, you’ve got to consider the amount of air inside the ingredients and how to keep your pops from being hard slabs of ice.
For example, smoothies have lots of air whipped inside, so you need to leave more room in the mold for expansion. And alcohol freezes at much lower temperatures than other ingredients, so recipes need to be adjusted accordingly.
So you can see, there’s a little more to making fabulous popsicles than just pouring liquid into a mold.
That’s exactly why I created my “Pop Primer”. It’s a “cheat-sheet” that will make sure you know exactly how to work with any ingredients you want to make pops with.
My 6 Page downloadable PDF is full of the facts you need to know to make perfect popsicles each and every time.
