Puddin’ Pops!

Old toy, new fun! 

Remember the Jello Frozen Dessert Kits? Jello chocolate pudding pops were always the go to. This kit was so simple to use, easy for kids, totally messy but worth it. I have seen many variations of pudding pop kits recently, and have used a variety of them. The cheap plastic ones are exactly that. Cheap. I don’t like a flimsy handle that bends. They feel like they will break and I don’t really feel like taking care of it because it feels so cheap. The handles that are made from a heavy duty plastic are a winner in my book. I have yet to find this Jello Frozen Dessert Kit anymore but there are other decent ones available on the market.

Fun Facts about Jell-O!

Kraft foods sells more than a million packages of Jell-O each DAY!

Fruits that sink in Jell-O: seedless grapes and fruits in heavy syrup like fruit cocktail, peaches, pears etc. 

Fruits that float in Jell-O: fresh fruit like bananas, citrus sections, sliced peaches, apples and fruit in light syrup. 

Jell-O came out with a cola flavored Jell-O but it was dropped the following year. Original flavors were orange, lemon, strawberry and raspberry. 

Jell-O is America’s most famous dessert. In fact it was once considered a very decadent dessert and served by the upper class. They used fancy Victorian molds to create desserts that were both beautiful and tasty.
