I don’t know about where you live, but in Southern Utah, it’s hot, hot, hot! Occasionally we get a slight breeze, reducing the temperature to merely scorching, but then it returns to hot, hot, hot! (You get the picture.) To retaliate, I’ve gathered 50+ popsicle recipes that are perfect for summer! I’m sharing yogurt pops, fruit popsicles, creamy creamsicles, and pops perfect for dessert! Which will you try?
I haven’t made popsicles since I was a kid. My preferred method involved Kool Aid, an ice cube tray, and toothpicks. (If you ask me, that’s still a yummy treat, and you and your kids would have a blast making them together!) Today I’m sharing popsicles that are a bit more creative and a heck of a lot tastier!

If you can’t find a popsicle that sounds good from this huge list, then I’m afraid you’ll have to just stick to putting your head in the freezer to cool off! (Kidding, but I have been known to do it!)
Popsicle Molds and Methods
Now that you’ve found a great recipe, what type of mold will you choose?
For the most frugal among you, I suggest you stick to the ice cube tray and toothpicks method! But, for those of you who want your popsicles to be a little more fancy (and a lot less bite-sized) one of these popsicle molds might be right for you.
The Zoku Quick Pop Makers make Popsicles outside of the freezer in about 7 minutes. (They come in lots of fun colors, too.) They’re your most expensive option, but, let’s face it, it’s pretty cool to be able to make a popsicle in 7 minutes! Zoku also makes classic pop molds that go in the freezer.
If you just want fun molds to pop into the freezer, try some of these:

Oooh, Heidi! Those all look so yummy! I can’t decide which one to try first… so, thanks for that dilemma. =) Awesome collection! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Krista. I have the same dilemma. So many choices, so little time!
Now that is a list. I love these because they are sweet but don’t fill you up.
Does that mean that I can eat three of four without guilt, Candi? (If only!) :-)
Stopping in from Wonderful Wednesday blog hop and love all your popsicle ideas! Perfect for summer, you’ll be putting a smile on my kids faces :) Enjoy your week!
Thanks so much, Heather. I always love linking up at your party!
My son loves frozen treats! There a lot of great recipes for me to try! Thanks for sharing!

I love this! Great roundup idea, Heidi!
Thanks so much, Heather. It was honestly hard to narrow it down this far!
Some of these look super yummy!! Can’t wait to try them, thanks Heidi!
I hope you like them, Megan! I’m not sure which one to try first.
AWESOME round up! All of these look amazing! I really want to try that Dole-Whip Inspired one. I’ve heard great things about that Disney legend but never found it when I went there several years ago. Thanks for linking up!
Thanks, Lauren. That’s so sad that you missed the Dole Whips at Disney. I’ve tried them, and they are as good as people say.
Love these! We just got a popsicle making kit and I needed some recipes. I’m going to try that sour worms one when the kids are older – but I’m also going to test out some of the dairy free options for me!
I hope you like them, Clare. Enjoy the popsicle-making kit. I have to find my old molds. I think they are older than I am!
I haven’t made popsicles in years too and these recipes definitely have improved since the kool aide years :) My kids will love these, they’re always asking for popsicles. Thanks
I know, Sami. Kool aide is all I used to use for popsicles. I can’t wait to try some of these, too.
I’d love to try some of these. A fun new mold is also on order! I have a cheap one but things have changed!
I think my popsicle molds are older than I am, Krystal! It might be time for new ones for me, too!
These all look so yummy! I truly can’t decide what to try first. Thanks for sharing these great popsicle recipes. Great collection.
Thanks, Karen. I have the same dilemma! So many popsicles, so little time! :)
