What’s the Best Popsicle Mold?
There are tons of popsicle molds available, and it can be hard to know which is the right one to buy.
I’ve been so impressed with this popsicle mold lately!
It’s made out of sturdy silicone, which makes it easy to move it from the counter to your freezer without having to put anything underneath it.
Plus, the silicone has a little bit of give, so you can squeeze the bottom of the molds to help get the popsicles out.
It’s also pretty compact and won’t take up much room in your freezer.
Oh, and the lid is awesome! The sticks only go down as far as you put them, which is nice.

Homemade Popsicles FAQs
It can be frustrating when popsicles get those little ice crystals on them. You can always add a little corn syrup or corn starch to alleviate the issue.
If you don’t want to invest in a popsicle mold, you can always use little Dixie cups, ice cube trays, small yogurt containers, muffin tins, or small plastic cups. Then, just put a layer of aluminum foil over it and poke your popsicle sticks through it.
You can use pretty much anything that is stick-shaped and food safe. Easy options include plastic spoons, straws, or chopsticks. Unfortunately, craft sticks are not food safe, so avoid using them.
