What are Layered Popsicles?
The popsicles that have two or more flavors and are separated distinctly in their appearance are called Layered Popsicles. These popsicles are very simple to make. All you have to do is get the mixture for your chosen flavors ready. In this case, I have Strawberry- Rhubarb Mixture and Lemon Cream Mixture. If you are using a Silicon Popsicle Mold like I do, you want to freeze it a couple of hours before. When your mixture is ready, you want to pour in your first mixture in the mold and freeze it for about 30-45 mins. After this you want to add the second mixture, here its the Lemon Cream mixture and then cover the popsicles, insert the popsicle sticks and freeze it for about 6-8 hours and ta da… layered popsicles will be ready.
What will you need to make Strawberry- Rhubarb and Lemon Cream Popsicles?
This recipe makes 5 Popsicles. For this recipe you will need Rhubarb, Strawberry, Lemon, Lemon Zest, Sweetener of your Choice (Here I have used Blue Agave Syrup), Whole Milk, Heavy Cream, Vanilla Extract, Lemon Extract and Poppy Seeds. You any of your favorite cookies for the crumble and you are all set.
Are you new to using Rhubarb?
Rhubarb is a medium to long stemmed vegetable which looks very similar to Celery. You will mostly be able to find this vegetable in your local grocery store in Summers. Rhubarb has a very tart flavor and is usually paired with different fruits and eaten in the form of desserts like pie, crumbles, popsicles, etc… Because of their tartness, they are usually soaked in sugar, honey, agave, or any sweetener to balance their tangy taste. Mostly Rhubarb is sold without its leaves, but if you buy Rhubarb with its leaves, you want to cut the leaves and throw it away as they are Poisonous and Inedible.
Can you make these Vegan?
Absolutely we can make these popsicles vegan. Replace the whole milk with full fat coconut milk and Cream with Coconut Cream. These are very simple to make and can be made vegan friendly easily. I have inserted the links to the products I have used to make this recipe. Do check it out! I really like them and recommend them for you to try if you are looking to purchase these.
