Notes

*The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of 1 popsicle. Actual calories will vary.
 
*The frozen whipped cream has a light, airy consistency even when frozen. It doesn’t freeze the same as liquid heavy whipping cream.
 
*For a creamier strawberry puree, strain the mixture through a mesh sieve to remove the seeds prior to pouring into molds.
 
*Taste the strawberries ahead of time and adjust the honey accordingly. The puree may need more or less depending on how sweetness of the strawberries.
 
*To use whole milk or almond milk, simply combine the milk with remaining honey and vanilla using a whisk attachment. You don’t have to beat the liquid into a soft cream stage. Just mix the ingredients and continue on with the recipe at step 3.

Strawberry Cream Popsicles Tips

  • To make it easier to remove the treat from the mold, place the mold in a warm water bath for about 30-seconds just before serving.
  • Want to remove the seeds, then strain the strawberry puree before placing it into the molds.
  • The honey or maple syrup amounts may vary. Taste test the fresh berries beforehand and adjust the sweetener according to taste.
  • For strawberry and cream popsicles with almond milk (or dairy milk) simply combine the milk with other ingredients as indicated in Step 2. However, the mixture doesn’t need to be whipped for 5-minutes. Everything can be mixed together for about 1-minute, then move to step 3. With that being said, the layers may blend together.
