My Fruitsicles!

I've been toying with idea of me making popsicles with fruits for the longest time.  So after buying fruit I decided to do just that on Sunday (July 7, 2013).

As usual something had to go wrong with my plan right.  I had previously bought fudge sticks as this was not my first foray in creating healthy frozen products (cause mi love ice cream bad bad lol). Anyhoo I own a big bag of fudge sticks but then I thought about what would I use to create the shape of my fruitsicles?I tried finding the popsicle plastic moulds but found none to my liking.

Here comes Sunday (July 7) and its my turn to cook (yeah yeah I know!). Any how still disappointed about not finding the mould I focused on making my smoothie none the less. In the midst of blending my fruits I started thinking about items I could use to make the popsicle. I thought about the small plastic containers in my household and wondered how the fudge sticks would work if I use them. Finally it dawned on me that I could use the small plastic disposable cups to create the popsicle-like shape. I searched my cupboards high and low for cups and I found some, operation fruitsicle ready to go!!!!

I poured my smoothie mixture into the cups and I had enough to make four cups and I put them into the freezer.

Now like some clown I kept opening the freezer checking every half and hour to see if any progress was made with my fruitsicles but alas they remained drinkable, I decided to give it some time and I figured I would check on them later in the night. Upon my night time check some progress was made but not enough to call them fruitsicles. My fruitsicles were not ready until the following day, when I got home from work. Finally, they were ready, fully frozen and ready for sampling, Yaaay! Yummy! Brain Freeze! Still Yummy!

I was pleased with my end product (as seen below). One thing I know for sure my quest will continue for the popsicle mould of my liking as I foresee more fruitsicles in my quest to accomplish a fit and healthy lifestyle!
