How to Make Frozen Fruit Pops
1. Mash the strawberries (or blitz in a food processor). Spoon or pour the strawberries and its juices into the 4 compartments of an Ice Pop Mold to make the first (top) layer.
2. Mash the banana. Spoon the mashed bananas into the same Ice Pop Mold to make the middle layer.

Extra Tips:
- Don’t be limited to these 3 fruits! Use any overripe fruit and turn them into frozen fruit pops.
- If you have strawberry monsters at home… A case when you will never have overripe strawberries because the kids devour them at first sight. An option is to add 1 teaspoon of sugar to fresh strawberries. Let the strawberries sit in sugar for 20 minutes. This process makes the strawberries soft and mushy, which then makes it easier to mash.
