About these frozen desserts
Like popsicles? By purchasing a set of reusable popsicle molds, you can make pudding pops, yogurt pops, and fruit-based popsicles. So refreshing! And easy! Keep an adequate supply in your freezer – they’ll keep for up to three months – whenever you feel the urge.
Or maybe you prefer it milkshakes! If you have a blender, you can make a milkshake. Hand blenders work great too!
Did you know you can make your own ice cream? You don’t even need a fancy ice cream maker! As an alternative to ice cream and a less indulgent treat, strawberry sorbet or berry mint granita offer lots of fruit flavor and fewer calories.
The weather is scorching hot and you’re going to get dizzy from the heat, so open your freezer and treat yourself to some homemade frozen food. Find a nice spot in the shade, listen to your favorite summer music and enjoy a little taste of heaven! You will not regret it!
Ice Cream Toppings
Don’t forget the toppings! Try the classic, delicious hot fudge sauce. If you’re not a chocolate lover, try bourbon caramel sauce, or maybe both for a fancy turtle sundae!
