When temperatures soar, the freezer seems to be the most tempting place to set up camp for the day.

However, with the concern of rapidly defrosting food on our mind, the next-best option is found in the haven of an ice-cold popsicle. Better yet, popsicles with the flavours of the tropics layered in. I always think the next best thing to actually being in the tranquility of a palm tree-lined beach is to eat like you’re there.

You’ll want to anticipate the heat when making popsicles, so make a day or more before the heat really hits as they take a good couple of hours to freeze.

Now with that done, it’s just time to kick back on the imaginative beach and relish in the childlike joy of licking an iced lolly on hot summer’s day, or maybe more than one. Bliss.

I tried to make frozen yoghurt last week but it’s turned into a brick and I’m not sure why! I used Fage and a punnet of strawberries (that I cut up and put some sugar on for a day), mixed them all up together and popped into a couple of clean ice cream tubs. I thought it would be fine, but… Had to use a bread knife to cut some off after it’d been out the freezer for half an hour! It tastes nice though, once it’s defrosted a bit.

Hi Katherine,
Thanks for your comment! That must’ve been such a disappointment to find.
The problem with making frozen yoghurt is that because of yoghurts high water content and lower fat content you can get a frozen ice-block from the water crystals rather than a creamy texture. The best thing to do is use full fat yoghurt, and add another creamy element so you can get a creamier result rather than icy, such as cream, mascarpone or labneh. And as you did with strawberries, add sugar (or even honey or maple) which helps to stop the formation ice crystals.

I hope this helps! And all the best with your future fro-yo endeavours!
