GIVEAWAY is now CLOSED and winner has been notified. THANKS FOR ENTERING!
It's HOT!
When it's hot outside my kids like to cool off with a popsicle.
Now is the perfect time to share some popsicle tips and recipes with everyone!
I love to make homemade popsicles. There are so many different popsicle molds to choose from now days. Here are two of our favorites :
If you don't have a popsicle mold then DON'T WORRY because all you need is some of those small paper cups and some sticks. Pour your mixture into the cups, freeze and then when it's time to eat just peel the cup away from the frozen treat!!
Now here is my favorite popsicle recipe to use :
12 ounce can of juice concentrate
4 cups water (2 cups plus 2 cups)
1 envelope unflavored gelatin (1/4-oz)
Molds, Sticks, Freezer
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in the microwave or in a sauce pan. Remove from the heat. Stir in the unflavored gelatin. Stir a lot, to dissolve it completely. Pour in the juice concentrate and the remaining 2 cups of water. Mix well. Pour into molds and freeze.

TIP:The Gelatin will prevent the popsicle from dripping.
Here is another great site for popsicle recipes.
And if you are going to be eating alot of popsicles then you will definately need to buy one of these...
The DripStik is AMAZING! I could spend an entire post raving about this product. When we recvd ours (GREEN AND PURPLE!) in the mail we had to try them out asap. I no longer have to worry about the kids getting their clothes messy nor do I have to constantly wipe fingers and chins (Popsicle drips). I LOVE DRIPSTIK and every mom that comes to my house is just amazed at the product as well. You can read more about DripStik products here.
Here is my little princess with one of our DripSticks.

WOW! Popsicles, I haven't had one like those pictured with the Mickey Mouse ears since I was a kid. I just loved when summer came and we got to make KoolAid popsicles. The lazy days of summers when we were kids, those were good times!

I would love to win and love you popsicles idea with the cup!
Thanks!

Thanks for the "no drip" gelatin tip. Crossing my fingers for the BR giveaway.
Loved the rocket shaped popsicle mold! have yet to see one of them in the store!
we always used coffee filters to help with the drip factor!
Love your page!
Good luck to everyone!
I never thought about using gelatin in a pop. I have to try that.
Please enter me in your giveaway. That's a very generous giveaway and will buy a lot of ice cream for the kids here in NYC (me being one of the kids of course)
Baskin Robbins is our favorite Ice Cream store. My favorite is Cookies and Cream.
Thanks for the great sweeps.
I know this is silly for a girl in her 40's but a baskin robbins ice cream cake is the only thing I ever ask for on my birthday. Because of family emergencies this year, I missed my treat! This prize would totally make my day... Thanks for the great giveaway!
I had no idea about the gelatin. I love ice cream, and would love to win!
My friends would love me thank you
Ice cream.....mmmmmmmmm.

MMMM. I have been craving chocolate and everything unhealthy lately. This would definately hit my sweet tooth. With this, I would not hold back (also get a couple Java Chillers to drive my husband crazier)
I'd love to win this. Baskin Robbins is only about 1 mile away from our house. It's one of the extras we had to cut to tighten our budget for the high gas costs.
We make our own popsicles too with the Tupperware popsicle maker.
It's 91 degrees outside. Ice cream sounds great!
gkstratos @yahoo.com
Oh, BR Blasts and shakes sound so refreshing for the hot summer!
My favorite flavor is chocolate fudge ~ thanks for offering the chance for a taste!
I remember going to Baskin Robbins by my house all the time when I was little. I loved the cookie dough ice cream.

This would be the perfect "after" father's day present for my husband who is awefully fond of ice cream as are my three kids. Being a housewife with no extra income coming in, it left us with nothing to give good ol' dad for the special day. This would do just great for us...
Would love to win!!!!
The Baskin Robbins three blocks from me closed. I miss it so much. Winning the Baskin Robbins would be great and give me my BR fix.
My kids will thank you for this giveaway

My girls love popsicles and ice cream. Thanks for the great giveaway!
My husband just had a birthday and he had been dropping hints about an ice cream cake for months. I got a BR e-mail (yes, I love them so much I signed up for their birthday freebies) about a new fudge crunch cake. SIGN ME UP! I headed over to order one only to find out our local store doesn't make them. I ended up with chocolate oreo crunch ice cream and chocolate cake instead and it was out of this world. If you love chocolate I highly recommend it.
Hmm...do I even try to win this?? I def. don't need extra ice-cream, but it would be good! So I'm going to try for it!!
i love ice cream it has vitamin d in it and i would love to win this.
mmmmmmm Baskin Robbins!
Thank you!
I'd love to win this for my son's upcoming Birthday party!
