How many of you enjoy eating popsicles? My family loves them! I try to keep popsicles on hand year round for everyone to enjoy. I would rather my kids grab a popsicle from the freezer than a bag of potato chips from the pantry when they need a snack.
When it comes to these icy-cold treats do you prefer homemade or store bought? Have you ever made your own ice pops and if so, what is your favorite flavor to make? When it comes to store bought which flavor is your favorite to buy?
Some of my personal favorites include: Strawberry Eclairs, Root Beer Ice Pops, Fudgesicles, and Orange Creamsicles. My children enjoy Rocket Pops, Freeze Pops, Chocolate Eclairs, Chocolate Covered Banana Pops, etc. My husband will eat a popsicle from time to time, but he’s much more an ice cream man.
I really enjoy making homemade popsicles and love getting creative with the ingredients that I use. I will often toss some fruits, yogurt and/or ice cream into my blender to make a smoothie. I then will spoon it into our popsicle molds and freeze. Oh my, so good! I will purchase generic brand root beer soda and will make our own root beer flavored ice pops with that. It’s a lot cheaper to make them at home than buy them at the store.

I have made my own popsicles and my favorite is strawberry. However, I also enjoy some store bought such as chocolate eclairs.
I do enjoy many store bought ice pops in the summer and I do purchase them often. My daughter does like to make her own and they come out good also!
I have never made them myself but that is a good idea. I am sure it is healthier too!
I have the Popsicle forms and made some a long time ago. I need to dust them off and make some for this summer.
We always had homemade popsicles growing up. I think ours were kool aid though! Nowdays you can find store bought but I do still make them for myself. I think my favorite is strawberry banana.
I have never made them but have bought a lot of different trays to make them. My great niece and great great nephew love popsickles. My niece makes her daughter a lot of banan pops
I used to make popsicles when the kids were small. I have not made them in years but I think I should for a treat for me.
I have never made my own popsicles at home gotta try that. I love the root beer flavored ones.
Oh, I’m a big fan of banana popsicles. The root beer are great, too, but I have a hard time finding them.
