Skinny Dippers-Popscicles
« on: June 28, 2010, 12:43:41 PM »
I found this 'popcicle' type product at a local grocery store and since it has zero cals, zero net carbs and zero sugar, I tried it.  I tried the Tangy Tangerine flavor.  They are very good... but a bit expensive.  How does one make a popcicle out of say crystal light or similar product that isn't hard like ice?  These Skinny Dippers were 'solid-soft' like a regular popcicle.  Any suggestions? Thanks, Founditatlast

Freeze it in ice cube trays and stick toothpicks in it?

My son made the crystal light popsicles and you are right! They come out ROCK hard....just like flavored ice cubes. WE bought the forms to put them in at Walmart and made them.

They have popscicle forms at kmart and the dollar store.Add alittle cream to your orange soda mix  and it will soften it up, not slushy like the skinny zippers though. ;)
