Made these a while back for a friend's gathering. Been wanting to repeat this so that I could get a better individual shot but taking too long so thought I'd post it anyway.
Fresh Watermelon Popsicles.
Super easy to make and taste fantastic especially when the weather is hot.
Ingredients :
Sweet watermelon
Sugar - caster, brown or honey (to taste. For me I used about 2 tbsp honey and 2 tbsp caster sugar for 500g watermelon. Next time I'll probably use brown sugar instead.)
pinch of salt
Method:
- Cut the watermelon seeds and remove the seeds.
- Blend watermelon flesh.
- If you prefer it chunky then skip this step. For a smoother texture, sieve watermelon juice at least twice.
- Pour into moulds and freeze overnight.
These bento picks came in very handy. Colourful sight huh? Used ice tray as moulds to make small and fun servings for adults, not to mention the size just nice to pop the whole thing into the mouth!!
The younger children preferred these cool sticks as they were much BIGGER!! Ha ha
Even if you can afford this, would you pay USD58 (approx) for a watermelon??

u made for a friend's gathering but how did u transport them, wouldn't they melt very fast, puzzle??? but i'm sure for home consumption, this is real great :D
jacss, u are right, melts fast - so with airconditioner switched on full blast to friend's house, only few min away and then stick them into freezer before unmoulding for dessert time. Serve only when ready to eat, otherwise will make a lovely cold watermelon juice drink!! :)
homemade popsicles is better than buying from outside!
