I need to make a heap of these to use up the last of my mango stores in the freezer from last year. Mango season is upon us again so I will need to chop and freeze new stores for the coming year.

Hmmmm, I think I sound like a squirrel.....

These taste awesome, I made them into small bars by freezing in a square silicone cake tin - then sliced when both layers frozen.  My photos don't do them justice because they have a definite 2 colour layer like the commercial ones you buy (my photo is a bit over exposed and makes it look like they are all the same colour). Next time I will try coconut cream and I like the idea of the icy pole moulds too. The recipe made about 20 pieces which I cut up and store in plastic container separated with baking paper. They are easy to eat in a small bowl with a small fork (spoon might bounce around a bit until they melt a bit). Yummy - thanks for the recipe !!

I bought a box of 12 mangoes for $5 yesterday and couldn't wait to get home and start making these. They are heaven on earth and just like the real thing.

My local fruit and veg place is awesome. They package up fruit which has marks on it and sell them as a bulk lot at the front of the store. Every time I go in I check what bulk fruit is at the front and I'll ask the manager how much she's charging. It's normally $3, doesn't matter what it is! Mangoes are obviously a bit more expensive  ;D. I've bought tomatoes, bananas, strawberries, lemons, anything they're selling then I get them home and plug the key word into the forum search!
