ZOKU | The Quick Pop Maker!

With the first official day of summer just around the corner, I can’t think of a better way to enjoy hot sunny days than with a good ol’ homemade popsicle.

If you have not yet heard of Zoku let me introduce you, post-haste.

Their Quick Pop Maker is popsicle-instant-gratification-heaven. Simple to use, it freezes popsicles on your countertop, in as little as seven minutes—no electricity, no fuss! Simply freeze the unit for at least 24 hours prior to popsicle making, pour in your juice, fruit puree, yogurt, lemonade—-the possibilities are truly endless (margarita pops anyone?) and your popsicle will freeze right before your eyes. Yes, it is that easy!

And how could I not mention Zoku’s slow pop molds that you just add your ingredients to and freeze the old fashioned way–in the freezer. A must see/try are their “Fish Pops” wherein you can create a shark, clownfish, octopus, whale, pufferfish or scuba diver popsicle. What!? As an added bonus these popsicle sticks have hilarious little “skeletons” that are revealed as they are eaten.

So go ahead and try your hand at homemade popsicles—they’re a great way to make healthy summer treats for your kids/with your kids—get them involved in the fun! And maybe your inner kid is in need of a popsicle too. (Hello Nutella Fudgesicle!)

We have just about everything you could need here at Healthy Living to make the Zuko pop of your dreams!
