My kids are popsicle professionals. They LOVE frozen treats. Popsicles and freezies are on constant rotation in our house. We’ve made amazing cherry popsicles in the past and this time around we wanted to take advantage of the deliciously sweet summer strawberries.Strawberry popsicle with a bunch of strawberries

It is a constant struggle to keep our freezer filled with freezies and popsicles. I fill up the freezer and the kids empty it. Which is okay, except that it can feel like they are eating a lot of sugar. Yes, the frozen treats keep them hydrated, but the artificial colours and sugar are my only worries. This is why I started adding homemade popsicles.

My girls and I have figured out how to turn seasonal fruit into delicious popsicles. With summer strawberry season being our favourite time of the year, this year I wanted to try making strawberry creamsicles. After all, strawberries and cream are a classic flavour combination for a reason.

Strawberry Creamsicle Recipe

2 cups hulled strawberries
1 tbsp water
1 cup whipping cream

Let the kids hull the strawberries. Use a small spoon to scoop out the stem of the strawberry. Place strawberries and water in a small pot, over medium heat.

Soften strawberries over medium heat. Use a potato masher to crush strawberries.

Once strawberries are softened, remove them from the heat and pour them into a blender. Be careful, the strawberries will be very hot.

Puree the strawberries until smooth in the blender. Hold the lid on tightly as the liquid is very hot.

Transfer the pureed strawberries to a bowl and place them in the fridge to cool.

In the meantime, the kids can whip the cream with a hand mixer or inside a stand mixer. Whip for 3 minutes, until the cream begins to thicken and become frothy.

If the strawberries you are using aren’t quite sweet enough, add a tsp of maple syrup or honey to the warmed strawberries. When your freezer is filled with homemade strawberry creamsicles and other ice pops, you won’t mind if the kids eat them all. Making your own means you control the sugar content.
