Chill out! How to make lovely lollies

● To release your lollies from the mould easily, gently run them under warm water first.

● We used the Norpro Frozen Ice Pop Maker Lolly Mould, which comes with wooden sticks. If you don’t want to buy lolly moulds, you could try using washed out yogurt pots or paper cups instead. To keep the stick in place, cut a slit in an upturned cupcake case and put it over the top.

● Give it a dip! Sprinkles don’t just have to be for ice creams – once frozen, you can dip your lollies in chocolate or yogurt and cover them in sprinkles, nuts or even granola, then pop back in the freezer to harden up.

● Don’t fill lolly moulds right to the top as they will expand a little as they freeze.

● Lollies can take up to eight hours to freeze, so it’s best to make them the day before. Also, if you’re adding alcohol, this will increase the time they need in the freezer.
