I got my ice lolly moulds at Superdrug for 99p - they work well with straw thingy in holder to suck up melting juice.
To remove lolly from mould, just run briefly under warm water then lift out.0 -
I got some lolly moulds from wilkinsons today. They weren't in the kitchen section though - they were with the summer stuff so ask an operative if you can't find the blumming things.
mmmm...lollies0 -
Hmm, this thread might be 4 years old, but I just found it via a link in DFW. I have some lolly moulds I got last year (on ebay, but pound shop were doing them in summer too). I am inspired to try make some more inventive lollies with DS this year.0

just caught this thread from the NSD thread and thinking I might try the frozen bananas as sometimes I buy bananas and we dont use them all, so if I see we arent going to get through them I am going to put them in the freezer. so do you eat them straight from frozen?MPs left feb '08 276- Dec 13 36 :T MB Jan 10 ~ £82,377 Dec 13 ~ £29987
EMFD was Feb 32 :eek: NOW Dec 2013 its Dec 2016
MF new target Dec 16 REACHED!! :j0 -
frozen frubes work really well and taste good to they are a bit like a milky calipo0

tinned peaches, yoghurt and a little sugar whizzed. Add raspberries for peach melba.
Banana, kiwi and a little oj whizzed
tinned pineapple, coconut milk or desicatted coconut
a simple custard made with milk, cornflour, cocoa and sugar - just like choc mini milks! Same without the cocoa and some vanilla instead
Banans cut in half and a lolly stick shoved in the frozen, even better dipped in melted choc and nuts!
Blueberries and yoghurtPeople seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.

I slice bananas then dip in chocolate before open freezing on a tray. Once frozen, you can put them in a bag and just have one or two at a go for a little treat.Trust me - I'm NOT a doctor!0

But I have no ice lolly mold to make them in
And they're probably expensive and I have nowhere to keep them, so I don't want to buy them either :money: Does anyone have any good suggestions on what I can use?
probably? Why not find out? I have just bought a pack of 8 lolly moulds off ebay for £2.99 p&p free.They take up only as much room as a box of 6 eggs. Of course if you only live in a broom cupboard I can see that this might be an issue but for normal people in normal small houses and flats, I can't see this being an issue. If you don't want to buy lolly ,moulds and haven't a tiny space to keep some if you bought them, I can't see how else you could manage. Best carry on buying them I guess.0 -
I know this is an old thread, but it's the right time of the year for resurrecting it..
just wanted to say that I've tried using bananas in my lollies and they are absolutely delicious
I found some interesting recipes here:

The moulds are £1.50 at Asda, if anyone is looking.0 -
Reawakening this thread as the temperatures rack up.
Here's an idea for the grown-ups to replace your liquid tipple: DIY gin & tonic ice lollies. This recipe is pretty fancy, but you can easily forgo the mint leaf and cucumber to keep things simple.0
