zoku pops
« on: December 14, 2010, 12:02:56 am »
Has anyone tried these?  They sound very intriguing and healthy

They freeze in 7 minutes. Thinking it might be a good thing to have for the school holidays and to try and get the grandkids to eat moe variety.
They cost about $69 I think

Someone from UK posted this a while ago. This site only ships to US. :'( It looks fantastic - they have other tools and so on from the last time I looked at it - can't wait til Australia get it in!!

It looks great!  The kids would love it ........ shame they only ship to the US though.  Wonder if there is any other way to get hold of them?  Maybe ebay??

I saw them advertised in the lastest Delcious magazine, so they must be available in here now.  They were advertising them at $80 i think

I also saw them in the Peters of Kensington ad page in the Weekend Australian. You can buy online and they ship everywhere.

They've been advertised in quite a few magazines. (I'm a bit of a magazine freak)

I've seen these at The General Trader and any good kitchenware shops. Definitely available at Everten online and Peter's of Kensington, just about my favorite 2 online kitchenware shops on the planet. They look good and if they do freeze ice creams, icy poles in 7 minutes as claimed, they will be great to use this summer.I haven't bought any yet but plan to. Just need to hide them from my husband as he'll kill me for buying more kitchen stuff. Has anyone tried them yet??

They look good but I can imagine they are like an ice-cream maker in that they would need to refreeze or maybe it  just permanently lives in the freezer?

I am "blessed" to have 2 children that don't like ice cream and ice blocks because they are too cold!  I would love to make them something like that......but then I would have to eat them both. Hmmm....good excuse to eat 2 ice creams I think!

I think you keep it in the freezer and take it out when you want to use it. It only holds 6 ice-cream paddles at a time. I don't think you have to put it in the freezer again to freeze your ice creams etc. Only put it back when you have finished your creations.
