Tovolo Groovy Popsicles Molds Set of 6 for Homemade Frozen Treats, Reusable Popsicle Molds with Sticks and Drip Guard, Dishwasher Safe BPA Free Ice Pop Molds for Kids and Toddlers, Blueberry

Who knew I wax poetic about plastic ice pop molds?! I adore these. No, I don't have kids; I just need something cold after a hot afternoon in the garden or when I get home from work. "Natural" juice pops are hideously expensive, so I tried these with big jars of juice. The result is fabulous. SPACE You don't need the stand once the pops have frozen, and possibly not even then IF you are careful. The tops kind of "click" shut, and that seal is fairly good. None have leaked yet, but I'd still take care making sure each was upright before it froze. My frezzer is often stuffed too full to accomodate the bottom stand, so I just put each between things, on the freezer's door shelves. No problem. CLACKITY CLACK OF PIECES & MISSING PARTS? not. Now, usually, I really dislike kitchen gear that has too many parts or parts that are clumsy and therefore hard to store. This stores beautifully -- it takes up just enough space for what it is and no more than that. I throw both parts in one of the dish washer's flatware bin, so it makes clean up really easy. I use the bottom stand for storage, tho to tell you the truth, they are in almost continuous use. PROBLEMS? I want to list problems, but I don't have any, expect perhaps that at first, I found it difficult to get the tops off. Remember I said the tops "click" shut with the bottoms? Well, after a little experimentation, I found that you really just have to hold the bottom for, say, 20-30 seconds OR leave one out for two minutes at most. That melts the frozen juice just enough to easily release the tops. It is also important to note that although I really put a lot of pressure on the handles trying to get them off (by leaning them left and right), none ever came close to breaking off. They have withstood similar abuse from visiting children and impatient adults, no problem. I also tend to chew on pens, and I can barely get a tooth mark on the inner handles of these. I also have tried freezing juice that I mashed up in my bullet blender, and most versions make excellent frozen pops. You know, as if you froze a smoothie. Freezing gazpacho was my only non-winner, BUT these molds did not retain any onion smell -- hard to believe, but true.

I read the reviews before purchasing, so I made sure my product was coming from Amazon to ensure I was getting an authentic one and not a smaller knock off version like some of the others warned. So, I was quite disappointed when I retrieved this package from the mail and it was clearly not in a box. A telltale sign that it was a knockoff. Also with a higher possibility of arriving damaged. As it turned out, it did come in branded packaging, just not the one I was expecting. It was exactly as I ordered, and the perfect size with no damage from shipment. I cleaned them right away, which was was easy. They come the perfect size to fit a standard sponge into. It's a bit snug so you can get a real scrub going if you wiggle it around with purpose. A bottle brush would be much more convenient, but I don't happen to have one, and the sponge worked anyways. I then immediately set to making lemonade popsicles. They came out easily when following the directions and were so very yummy! The portion sizes are definitely too large for a younger child, so I'll have to keep these stashed when my nephew comes over. But for an older child or an adult who doesn't think popsicles come with an age limit, they are perfect. Pro tip: whole lemon slices are a great aesthetic but are very inconvenient when actually eating the popsicle lol. I will definitely be buying more. Hopefully this corona business will be ending soon so I can fill my freezer with these things, fill them up with margaritas and throw a pool party. Until then, it'll be a popsicle party of one. So, them being able to be removed separately is a real convenience.

This product has a number of pluses: 1. It's well made, not flimsy 2. very easy to use, pops right in and out of base 3. size is enough for adults as the molds hold about 3.8 ounces, almost a half cup liquid, plenty for a satisfying popsicle 4. makes an attractive "grooved" treat There are 2 MINOR neatives (hence only 4, not 5 stars) 1. Because of the long popsicle stick you may have to eat the very bottom of the popsicle with a spoon unless you have a very big mouth or no gag reflex. 2. If you have a powerful freezer like mine which "deep freezes" everything, you may need a full 20-30 seconds under hot water to release the mold.

These sturdy pop molds are PBA free and hold 1/2 cup of liquid. Fill half full for children and small eater portions. or all the way (with 1/2" space) for larger portions. The tray holds the molds perfectly upright until frozen, then you can remove the pops and store flat if space is an issue in your freezer. There are so many pop recipe books here on Amazon that it is hard to choose which one to get. I like to make fruit pops with just fruit puree and a touch of sweetener if necessary (stevia liquid, Sweet Drops), and I also take plain yogurt and add fruit, stevia and blend, then freeze. Generally, I have heard that alcohol based flavor extracts like vanilla will prevent freezing, but frankly with low fat or fat free yogurt, fruit with lots of water in it, and low fat milk, the mixture will form more ice crystals than if full fat products and cream were used, like with icecream. Adding the extracts will help keep the mixture from freezing rock hard, and that's a good thing! I have also tried adding a cup of whipped topping to both my pop types and, although this is not real cream, it has lots less calories and helps keep the pops a bit creamier, and less icy. A couple tablespoons of actual alcohol in the mixtures for the adults really makes for a tasty treat! Think creme de mint or kalua! The bottom tray measures about 6"x 6" and stands about 9" tall with the pop holders. Very compact unit, does not take up much space at all. The little tray at the bottom of the pop holds the drips nicely. I looked at other pop molds as you no doubt have, and found that these are more useful because you have the option of making a large or small size pop. The other molds look cute with their swirls, ridges and cute shapes, but pops made with them would be very difficult for a child, even an adult to eat. These molds are smooth sided and far easier to get your mouth around. Simple to use, and so much better for you than eating ready made pops with all their bad-for-you chemicals, food colorings, additives, sugar. P.S. go organic with organic milk, fruit and yogurt!

Wow. So many great things to say about these popsicle molds! The snap-in tray keeps everything neat, upright and level in the freezer. And when the posicles are frozen, you snap the molds out of the tray and store them right in their molds in the freezer - mess free. When you want to enjoy one, take one out and run it under warm water for a few seconds to loosen it from the sides and they slide right out of the mold very easily. And I love the built in sticks / drip catcher design. They not only keep your hands clean when enjoying the popsicles but they act as covers when everything is in liquid form - they snap on tightly so nothing leaks out. These are very easy to clean - you can soak them, scrub them and dry them easily. They stack (like a sleeve of cups) for storage when you aren’t using them. And one very underrated feature is that because they are all separate molds - you can choose to make just 1 or 2 individual popsicles or all 6. I had a silicone popsicle mold and these are WAY better. Five stars!

Decent basic popsicle mold, but sometimes it can be a struggle to get the popsicles out so you have to run them under hot water.

Love it, works great, easy to use and clean

I love these Tovolo molds for popsicles. I just make smoothies in the blender and fill the molds with the mixture. Love it for summer or almost year round in California. The stand is nice and keeps your popsicles in a neat, compact place. They are a great size, too. I have some smaller Kootek popsicle molds and those are nice, too, but about half the size - a little small. 1 caveat: measure your freezer space. These molds stand taller than the smaller 2 oz. popsicle molds. There is only one shelf in my freezer that I can put these on. Make sure you have the room in your freezer. Another consideration is that with molds where you are not using wood sticks, it's pretty hard to freeze them and lay them flat in a drawer. You can, but then, you won't be able to refreeze another batch until you're done eating them. If you want to make a freeze a bunch over a few days, get the kind of molds that use the wooden sticks. Of course then you have to store them IN something, which means using plastic bags and I don't like to do that. Cleaning these is pretty easy. I use a bottle brush with fairly soft bristles. Unmolding the frozen pops: Heat some water for 2.5 minutes in a tall glass measuring cup or a tall jar - where the height of the container is a bit taller that the mold and stick. Hold the frozen pop by the stick and turn upside down into the water for about 15 seconds. Then check to see if it's ready to come out by slightly twisting the handle a bit to see if it will give. If not, put it back in for 5 for seconds and try again. Don't put too much pressure on the plastic handle. It feels sturdy to me, but you wouldn't want to break it. Recipe for Strawberry Yogurt smoothie or popsicles: 10 oz. yogurt ( I use Whole Foods 365 organic whole milk plain, but you can switch it up. I don't like the powdery texture that happens with Greek Yogurt); 3/4 c. Whole Foods 365 organic almond milk; 1/2 tsp. vanilla (I use Nielsen Massey vanilla); 4 packets Organic Stevia; 2 cups frozen strawberries. If your strawberries are not very sweet or you just want to kick that flavor up a notch, add 2 tablespoons strawberry jam or strawberry spread to the container before blending). Delicious! It will make enough for about 4 of these Tovolo popsicle molds.

After reading some reviews on Amazon, I settled on these moulds and they have been perfect. A good size - not as big as a Magnum but not far off. None of them have broken, they go in the dishwasher and have all survived intensive use over the hot summer. It's really easy to make your own ice-cream lollies, I just mix cream, yoghurt, condensed milk and whatever extras I feel like e.g. chocolate chips, crumbled biscuits, raspberries, lemon curd. You do need some height in the freezer for the base and moulds - if you have an upright freezer check the height of the shelves. To remove the lollies from the moulds I leave them in a jug of cold water for 3-4 minutes.

Esse molde de picolé é ótimo já vem com o palito e o molde é grande.

These work as intended. Larger than I expected when I ordered them, these make popsicles about the length of your hand. Make great popsicles and are easy to remove once frozen if you run under hot water for a moment. Last bites in the bottom of the handle are hard to get to without a spoon, but the drip catching feature makes it worth it.

If you are looking for a perfect mold for your homemade Popsicles please really consider buying these. You will not be disappointed. I don't usually write reviews but I love these pop molds so much I think everyone should invest in a set or two. They come out perfect every single time. It's very easy to clean. Just run the ice pops under hot water to remove the cap before eating. Enjoy!
