Deliciously creamy Strawberry Popsicle infused with strawberry and cream is a fun & easy recipe. A perfect way to cool you down on a hot summer day!
Summer brings an amazing array of fresh fruits and veggies that are loaded with deliciousness and great texture. To enjoy this fresh produce, every summer I shop at my local farmers market. Creamy Strawberry Popsicle
This week our farmers market was flooded with the pretty sight of gorgeous, bright and juicy strawberries. I couldn’t resist myself and ended up buying 6 pounds (appx. 3 kilos) of delicious and super sweet strawberries.
Since the fresh strawberries were so juicy, some of them were washed and eaten as is. The leftover batch is transformed into yummy frozen treats – called popsicles.
These creamy strawberry popsicles don’t last very long in my house. Everyone loves them because they are –
- super easy to make
- bursting with fresh fruit flavor
- have a ton of texture (sliced strawberries are added to the Popsicle)
- no preservatives or un-pronounced ingredients added
- is naturally sweetened with honey
- and a total kid-friendly recipe!!
As an added bonus you can customize this recipe to your liking. Substitute strawberries with the fruit of your choice. Some other options are –
- Blueberries
- Peaches
- Blackberries
- Raspberries and not to forget
- My favorite MANGOES!!

Now onto the recipe!
These creamy strawberry popsicles is made with 5 simple ingredients. You probably have all of these ingredients at home right now. Simply blend all the ingredients together until smooth and creamy. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, cover, and freeze. You are done!
I prefer strawberry seeds in my popsicles. Well, why waste the good stuff? But if you don’t have a liking for seeds, feel free to strain the pureed strawberries through a fine mesh strainer and continue with the recipe.
The homemade whipped cream was whipped WITHOUT SUGAR for this recipe. A little tartness from the strawberries was adjusted with honey.
