Fresh fruit with a splash of juice makes a fresh and healthy snack. Use whatever fruit you're heart desires. A perfect summer treat!
These are so simple and so darn cute, my one year old probably had just as much fun playing with them as she did eating them. Super easy to make and no fancy gadgets required, you'll need small 5 oz disposable cups and some craft sticks.

Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup diced kiwi
- 1/3 cup diced watermelon
- 1/3 cup diced strawberries
- 1/3 cup diced pineapple
- 1/4 cup fresh pineapple juice or orange juice
Combine diced fruit in a bowl and fill each 5 oz cup with fruit. Add 1 tbsp of juice and insert craft sticks into each cup. They easily stay in place because of all the fruit. Place in the freezer a few hours until firm. To remove the pops from the cups, run under warm water a few seconds. Enjoy!
So cute. I love that the fruit is left chunky. We will add these to our summertime list.
ReplyDeleteLooks like someone is having such a yummy dessert! :)

ReplyDeleteYour daughter is adorable! I love all the fresh fruit in these! It has been so darn hot here that I have been craving cold treats!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute!!! My kids would love them....going to make them soon. Thx for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteDoes the baby come with the fruit pop!? Your daughter is gorgeous Gina! And the pops look mouth watering. Definitely a special treat in the summer. And for 1 point?! You can't beat that.
ReplyDeleteThese look so delicious and colorful! I love food with a lot of color, it looks way more appetizing.
ReplyDeleteI just got over a really bad sinus infection and have been getting sick a lot last week. My appetite still haven't fully come back yet, but these look good enough to make me want to go make them and have them ready when I get off work tonight. Plus, we just bought a bunch of fresh fruit.
Great idea!
I don't have orange juice, but would Sunny D would as a juice substitute?
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of studding it with all the fruit. How yummy & creative.
ReplyDeleteGina - these look delicious. I was thinking you could also make them in ice cube trays with no stick, and drop into a nice summer drink!
ReplyDeleteIsn't she a cutie!
ReplyDeleteAny fruit juice would work, even Sunny D if that is all you have.
Jillian- great idea making them into ice cubes!
The ice cube idea sounds awesome and like it'd be cool to do for a party.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I'm so glad Heirtoblair mentioned your onion rings, I love your site. I'm headed back now to do more drooling and recipe planning!
ReplyDeleteThis looks GREAT! Might be a good use for all that fruit we're getting these days at the farmer's market.
ReplyDeleteYour little girl is adorable! Who cares about looking at the fruit pops when we could look at that cute little one! ;)
ReplyDeleteBest,
Gloria
P.S. Oh, OK, I might try the fruit pops too - they are very healthy looking!

So that's the tomato-poking culprit. She is absolutely adorable.
ReplyDeleteThe pops look really good and I'm glad you posted this. I'm thinking sangria with fruited ice cubes. Just got some star-shaped cupcake "molds" and think this recipe in those molds floating in a pitcher of white sangria ....
I love white Sangria!
ReplyDeleteThis is perfect! I think we'll have these at my daughter's birthday party instead of icecream! =D
ReplyDeleteThat is truly heaven in pops...great idea to make this frozen fruit pops for the weather here is horrible hot and humid. Thanks Gina for sharing this delicious summer treat :)
ReplyDeleteElin
Have you tried to make these without the stick and keep them like an italian ice or do you think it would melt down too quickly??
ReplyDeleteNow, I know what to do with all the empty yogurt cups I had stashed somewhere.
ReplyDeleteThese are a great summertime idea!

My 6yo and his friend made these yesterday - we forgot to eat them so they are eating them for breakfast! How cool to give them an "dessert: for breakfast and not worry about it being totally inappropriate!
ReplyDeleteAs an aside - I ended up adding more than a tbsp of juice..........
They look so refreshing and good!
ReplyDeleteI made these over the weekend. What a fun idea!! Thanks for a great way to get more fruit in my diet.
ReplyDeleteNicole, no I haven't tried that.
ReplyDeleteSazzy - dessert for breakfast, my favorite!
Angela, isn't it fun!
What a great idea! These look so refreshing - and your daughter is darling. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan : )

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness Gina...everything on this site looks esquisite....I'm so glad the girls at Whipperberry featured you....I'm in love...:o)
ReplyDeleteLucy
Thanks Lucy!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an inspired idea - it's Winter "Down Under", but I still can't resist trying these! Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteI rarely comment for anything but I have to post one for this recipe. I just hosted a picnic with a good number of guests ranging in ages from 2yrs to 75 yrs. We even had some food allergies added to the mix. This dessert was a HUGE hit and loved by everyone. Thanks a million for all you do. My family greatly appreciates it.
ReplyDeleteMy siblings are gonna love these! Thank you for such an amazing twist to classic frozen pops!
ReplyDeleteAwesome ... They look very delicious and home made things are always better to give to your child.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing.
I can't wait to try this. It looks so.....good!!
ReplyDeleteMade them last night.. frozen and ready for breakfast this morning! Absolutely LOVED them. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous and look delicious! I featured them today on Friday Finds. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteMight be a silly question. But could I just use frozen fruit, put in a cup and add the juice and freeze???? Or some frozen and some fresh?? That way I could use up the frozen fruit I have already and organics are cheaper that way.
ReplyDeleteCute idea! I will make these tonight. That's a good idea for my chickens, too. I'm going to make them some during these hot days!
ReplyDeleteCan I use these great pictures of the fruit pops in my newsletter?

Love that hunk of kiwi right in your first picture! These look so good and easy. :)
