{Simple Sorbet : Icy Poles}


Ahoy!
A couple of days ago I made strawberry and pear purée for Miss 3 who is going through a non-eating stage. 
I have these adorable reusable food pouches I purchased through Little Mashies. 
I filled 7 of these 100ml pouches with this purée and I was sure she would love them. I have been buying the supermarket equivalent which are $1.30 each and are only 70mls. 
But after all my effort, poaching, purreeing, and filling, Miss 3 turned her nose up at them and continued with her diet of canned peaches and Greek yoghurt.
Miss 5 decided they weren't her cup of tea either. So what was I supposed to do with all this purée? 
I had an idea! A little while back we bought the girls a fruit icy pole from a store named "Scoops". They came in the cutest reusable cow molds which you get to keep when you buy the icy pole. Yay! 
Cutest little cow molds around.


So I armed myself with all the pieces and my "Little Mashies" pouches.

I filled the mold almost all the way to the top using my Little Mashies Food Pouch to get into all the little corners.  
Leaving a little bit of space to put the back on.
The back clicks into place easily and firmly and once it's on the thick puree can't leak out. A thinner liquid would if you held the mold upright.
All filled and ready to go into the freezer overnight.
Miss 3 oblivious to the fact that she is indeed eating the fruit puree I made her!
Delicious! One happy Mamma, no wastage here.

Until Next time.... Stacey xx
