Popsicles are a wonderful summertime treat, and while it is entirely possible to make popsicles without a mold and get great results, it’s always a little bit more fun to have some neat molds for making ice pops. There are all kinds of popsicle molds out there – both in very plain and more elaborate designs – but one of my favorite molds are in the shape of the rocket/bomb pops that I was a huge fan of as a kid. So, I decided to share the pop-love by giving away a set of Tovolo Rocket Pop Molds! These molds, which I reviewed here, give pops a fun rocket shape time and again. They’re durable and it is easy to get the pops out of them, no matter what flavor of pop you’ve made .
To enter the contest, just leave a comment below and mention your favorite frozen treat – whether it is something simple, that you might find at an ice cream truck in the park, or something more elaborate that you might put together at home or have at a gourmet ice cream shop. The contest ends Sunday at midnight (07/01/2012) and one winner will be randomly selected from the entries. Don’t forget to fill in your e-mail on the comment form (it will not be made public), as that is how I will contact the winner, and good luck!
