Enjoying an ice cream or an ice block on a hot summers day is one of life’s simple pleasures. And with a beautiful day forecast for the weekend I made two fruit packed varieties, banana and kiwifruit and boysenberry coconut – both of which were delicious. The good thing about making your own is there’s no artificial colours or flavours – just all natural, fresh ingredients.
And all you need is a set of ice block moulds, a few basic ingredients and some patience while you wait for them to set!
Here’s how:
Banana Kiwi Ice block
4 kiwifruit, peeled and chopped.
1 kiwifruit sliced into rounds
2 large bananas
4 tablespoons of thick vanilla yoghurt
Blend all ingredients until smooth, except the extra kiwifruit. Slice the extra kiwifruit and slip down the sides of the ice block moulds. Spoon in the blended fruit/yoghurt mixture and insert popsicle sticks. Freeze until set.
Boysenberry Coconut
1 cup boysenberries (I used frozen ones)
2 tablespoons coconut cream
1/2 cup vanilla yoghurt
Blend all ingredients until smooth. Spoon into popsicle moulds and freeze until set.
