Ingredients

  • 3 mangoes peeled, seed removed
  • 275 ml of coconut cream
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • lime juice and zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or paste

Instructions

  • Peel and chop your mangoes, removing as much flesh from the inner stone.
  • Combine all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until the mango puree is smooth and free of any lumps.
  • Pour the mango mixture into popsicle molds and place in the freezer for one hour.
  • When the mixture is semi-set, pierce a popsicle stick through the centre of each popsicle. Place back in the freezer and allow the mango popsicles to set for a minimum of 4-6 hours or overnight before serving.
  • To serve the mango popsicles, run the molds under warm water for 10 seconds to set them loose and serve immediately. Alternatively, dip them in a bowl of warm water.

Notes

  • This recipe made 10 ice pops. Each mould holds 100ml so the total quantity should equal 1 litre. If you want to use the same moulds to make ice pops at home, try this set from Amazon.
  • Use in-season, ripe mangoes for best results.
  • Use a blender or food processor to blend the mixture until smooth. When poured into popsicle molds, the consistency should be thick enough to not drip down the sides.
  • Use a good quality popsicle mold.  
  • Wash the popsicle molds in hot soapy water and dry them off before using.
  • If you don't have the necessary equipment to make these popsicles - consider making mango ice cream instead.  Pour the mango puree into a loaf pan, freeze for up to 4 hours and serve as a delicious dessert.
