About Jelly Custard Popsicles

Jelly Custard Popsicles is a unique twist from regular ice creams or plain popsicles. It is creamy, and has a nice mix of texture. The base is vanilla custard which gives a rich taste, while the jelly cubes add light chewiness and color in every bite. Kids loves watching the colors swirl inside and its so fun to eat.

This recipe is very flexible, you can use any flavor of jelly you like - rose, strawberry or pineapple all taste great. It is a great way to use leftover jelly too. The best part is it does not need any fancy ingredients or equipment. Just mix, freeze and enjoy. I add it with small fruit pieces too, which makes it more tastier.

You can also make them ahead and keep in freezer for small parties or family get-together. They stay fresh and tasty for many days. Also kids enjoys picking their favorite jelly colors and helping to pour the mixture into molds too. It's a simple way to involve kids in cooking without much mess.

I often make this when I want something cold and quick without any heavy effort. The look itself is so pretty with those bright jelly cubes peeping through the creamy custard. Even adults can't resist having more than one in a go.

Jelly Custard Popsicles Ingredients

• Milk - I add full cream milk for rich taste and creamy texture. You can also use toned milks.
• Custard Powder - I used this as main thickener and gives that soft creamy texture. I like vanilla flavor, but you can try mango or butterscotch also.
• Sugar - This add sweetness and it balances the mild taste of custard. You can add more or less on it how you want.
• Jelly - I just added rose jelly cubes, it gives a pretty color and fruity taste. You can use any flavor like strawberry or orange or even mix few.
• Cardamom Powder - Optional, but it gives mild aroma that goes well with custard flavor. I add only little sometimes.

How to make Jelly Custard Popsicles Step by Step

1.Boil milk(reserve a tablespoon of milk) for 5 minutes until its bubbles up nicely. Simmer and then add sugar. Mix well.

2.To a tablespoon of milk add custard powder, mix well to form a runny paste without any lumps. Add this to simmering milk.

3.Keep cooking ,slowly it will get thick.

4.Cook in low flame and keep mixing so that there are no lumps. At one stage the custard will nicely form a thick coating, it will coat the ladle like this, it should be thick as shown below. At this stage, switch off and cool down completely.

5.Now take your jelly cubes and add it to the custard mixture. Mix gently.

6.Spoon the mixture into your favorite popsicle mold till ¾th.

7.Close with lids and freeze at least for 6-8 hours. I freeze it over night. Then carefully show the bottom part in running tap water, set aside undisturbed for at least 2-3 minutes then slowly pull out the lid.

Serve immediately.

Expert Tips

• Custard - I usually cook it till slightly thick but still pourable. Once it cools down, it becomes thicker, so don't overcook.
• Mixing jelly - Always cool the custard completely before adding jelly cubes, else jelly will start melting. I made that mistake once.
• Sweetness - I always taste the custard before freezing because after freezing sweetness reduces little bit. You can add little more sugar if needed.
• Unmolding - When removing, I dip the bottom part of mold in water for few seconds and wait before pulling out. It comes out clean and neat.
• Flavor idea - You can try different jelly flavors for colorful look. Mango with rose or pineapple with orange works really good.

Serving and Storage

Serve Jelly Custard Popsicles chilled straight from freezer. You can sprinkle few chopped nuts on top while serving to make it look rich. It tastes best when eaten soon after unmolding as it melts slightly fast. If making ahead, keep it covered tightly and freeze up to 2 days.

FAQS

1.Can I use readymade custard?

Yes, you can use instant custard mix too, just make sure it is thick enough before adding jelly.

2.Can I skip jelly?

You can skip but then it will be just custard popsicle. Jelly adds nice color and taste.

3.Can I make this without mold?

Yes you can pour in small cups and insert ice cream stick after half set, works same way.

4.Which jelly flavor suits best?

I feel rose, strawberry and pineapple are my top picks. You can try any based on what you like.

5.How long it takes to freeze?

Minimum 6 to 8 hours needed to get firm popsicles. I usually freeze overnight for best result.

Kulfi is a rich, creamy and frozen dessert, perfect for summer or for any festive meal. It is made by reducing milk slowly to thick malai and adding nuts, khoya, sugar and little saffron. The texture is dense, smooth and melts slowly in mouth, giving that traditional kulfi feeling.

You can try this when you want special dessert that looks fancy but is actually simple to make. Kulfi take some time because milk needs to reduce slowly, but taste is totally worth it. Kids and adults both love it, because it is sweet, nutty and very creamy. It is bit of work, but so satisfying when you serve and see everyone enjoying it.

[feast_advanced_jump_to]

About Malai Kulfi

Kulfi is a creamy ice cream, that's rich, flavorful and loaded with nuts. This is made from milk reduced to thick consistency along with khoya and nuts which gives it rich taste. Saffron and cardamom gives it lovely aroma and bit golden color. I usually top it with chopped nuts for extra crunch and taste.

The texture is smooth but also slightly grainy from nuts. You can grind the nuts coarsely or fine depending on your preference. It is thick enough to hold shape in popsicle molds and melts slowly in the mouth. The sweetness is balanced by the natural creaminess of milk and richness of khoya.

Many variations of kulfi exist. Some are flavored with mango, rose, or pistachio, some use condensed milk for faster preparation. But malai kulfi is classic and gives that traditional taste which feels very homely and special. You can even serve it with falooda or just plain after meals.

I usually make kulfi when I have some time in the evening. I prefer to freeze overnight so it sets properly. Showing the mold under running water makes demolding easy.

Malai Kulfi Ingredients

• Milk - I just used full cream milk for rich taste and creamy texture. You can use low fat milk but malai will be less creamy and a bit thin.
• Sugar - I used sugar which adds sweetness. You can adjust it to taste, little more or less as you like.
• Almonds - I have used almonds, ground with sugar and pistachios. This adds crunch and nutty flavor. You can also roast them slightly before grinding, it gives nice aroma.
• Pistachios - I used pistachios with almonds. This adds color and rich taste. You can also use only almonds if you prefer, it still tastes good.
• Cardamom - I have used half cardamom. This adds lovely fragrance.
• Saffron - I added a pinch which gives color and mild aroma. You can increase little more for deeper golden color.
• Khoya - I used unsweetened khoya which gives richness and thickens to the kulfi. You can use fresh or store bought, both works fine.

How to make Kulfi Recipe Step by Step

1.Grind together sugar, almonds, pistachios, saffron and cardamom together to a slightly coarse mixture, Set aside. Boil milk in a pan.

2.Simmer for 15 minutes till milk reduces. Stir in between to avoid burning at the bottom. Now add nuts sugar mixture.

3.Add khoya and cook for few more minutes. Malai will start collecting.

4.Scrap the sides and keep cooking till the mixture is thick and creamy like shown below.

5.Keep cooking till it coats the ladle as shown. Cool down completely. Then pour it in kulfi molds / popsicle molds. I used my kulfi shaped popsicle molds.

6.Wrap with silver foil, insert ice cream stick and freeze for 6-8 hours at least, I always freeze it over night. Then show the popsicles side part under running tap water. Slowly remove the kulfis and serve.

Serve immediately.

Expert Tips

• Grinding nuts - I usually grind almonds and pistachios fine. You can just make it a bit coarser if you want some crunch in kulfi.
• Milk - I boil milk and simmer it slowly, stir often so that it does not burn. This adds natural thickness and creaminess to kulfi.
• Adding khoya - I add khoya after nuts mixture. This helps malai collect and gives very rich taste.
• Freezing - I usually wrap molds with foil and insert sticks. Freeze for 6-8 hours or overnight for best setting.
• Demolding - Show popsicle mold under running tap water for few seconds, then slowly pull stick. Kulfi comes out clean and keeps shape nicely.

Serving and Storage

Serve them as dessert or snack. You can also cut into pieces if using big molds. Leftovers can be stored in freezer covered with foil for few days. For easy serving, show mold under running water slightly, then pull gently. Kulfi stays creamy even after freezing.

FAQS

1.Can I skip saffron?

Yes you can, but saffron gives nice color and aroma. Without it kulfi will be ivory in color.

2.Can I use condensed milk?

Yes you can, it makes preparation faster. Reduce sugar accordingly.

3.Can I make it without khoya?

Yes, but khoya gives richness and helps kulfi set well. You can add little cream as substitute.

4.Can I grind nuts coarsely?

Yes you can. Coarse nuts add texture. I grind fine for kids so they don't pick nuts.

5.How long to freeze kulfi?

Freeze at least 6-8 hours or overnight. Longer freezing makes kulfi set firm and easy to demold.

Pista Popsicle is one of those summer treats which is very refreshing and tasty too. It is nothing but frozen milk ice flavored with pistachios, essence for that nutty aroma. The creamy taste with pista flavor makes it more special than a normal ice pops.

On hot afternoons, I feel nothing beats a chilled homemade popsicle. It is very easy to prepare, needs just few ingredients and kids always ask for one more. This pista popsicle is also a nice idea to make after a heavy lunch on weekend to surprise family.

About Pista Popsicle

Pista Popsicle is a frozen milk based dessert flavored with pistachios. It is very common to make such ice pops during summer as it cools the body and gives relief from the heat. Pista adds a nutty flavor and also gives light green color which makes it very attractive to see.

In India, pista milkshake or pista milk is already very popular, so turning it into a popsicle is natural. The flavor is creamy, nutty and not too heavy, so you can even have two without feeling very full. Pista kulfi and pista ice cream are other popular variations but this one is more simple to make.

The texture is smooth with little crunchy bites of pistachios if you grind them coarse. If you add pista essence it gives strong aroma and mild color too. Some people like adding cardamom also, but I usually keep it plain so that pista taste is more.

I usually make this pista popsicle on weekends or when kids have holiday. It hardly takes time to prepare, only the waiting for freezing is long. But once it is ready, the happy faces makes it worth the time.

Pista Popsicle Ingredients

• Milk - I added full cream milk here as it gives a creamy texture to the popsicles. You can also use toned milk too but it will not be very creamy.
• Pistachios - Fresh pistachios give nutty taste and light crunch here. I usually grind them coarsely, you can make it fine if you prefer smooth texture. If pista is not available you can replace with cashew or almonds.
• Pista essence - I have used pista essence which adds a very strong flavor and mild green color.
• Sugar - Regular white sugar works fine and blends easily in milk. You can even use cane sugar or brown sugar but taste will slightly change.
• Spice powders - I usually don't add but little cardamom powder can be mixed for extra aroma. It pairs well with pista flavor.

Why This Recipe Works

• This recipe is very easy to make and needs only few simple ingredients.
• This popsicle is light and cooling but still has nice creamy taste.
• This recipe suits both kids as well as adults.
• You can easily customize it with cardamom or even saffron for rich version.
• This recipe is a perfect summer dessert that can be stored and enjoyed anytime.

Expert Tips

If using paper cups you can keep them covered to avoid ice crystals forming. When ready to eat, take out and allow a minute at room temperature or dip the mold in warm water to remove easily.

FAQS

Yes, you can skip it. Popsicle will still taste good with just pistachios.

Yes, almonds or even cashews can be used. The flavor will change but it works.

The combination of vanilla and chocolate is so good as it is a match made. Homemade popsicles are best as you can customize it according to your liking. This recipe is so simple that even kids can make their popsicles, This way, they are involved in the making and the restlessness involved while it is freezing.

The very first time I made this Popsicle, the idea itself was exciting for my little one. My little one kept opening the freezer door every half an hour just to check if they were ready.

The simple joy of making popsicles during summer is very special to me. I tried my hand with vanilla popsicles first to check if they were truly worth the try, and everyone at home was in love with the Popsicle.

This time, I wanted to add a twist to the Popsicle and added a chocolate layer. It was truly exciting to see both the flavors coming together, where vanilla is simple and light, while the chocolate adds a rich flavor.

Vanilla Chocolate Popsicle Ingredients

• Milk – This forms the creamy base for our popsicles. For the chocolate layer, mix cocoa with milk. It keeps the base very light.
• Sugar – It adds the sweet flavour to the milk without making it heavy and balances the bitterness of the cocoa powder.
• Vanilla essence – This balances the aroma and enhances vanilla Popsicle flavour.
• Cocoa powder – this brings the deep chocolate flavour to the Popsicle.
• Choco chips – this tiny burst of melted chocolate adds extra indulgence to the Popsicle.

4.Then add choco chips and let it melt. Whisk it well and switch off. Cool down completely.

5Then pour over the vanilla layer. Close with lid and freeze it. If you want to insert sticks, Wrap it with a aluminum foil and then insert ice cream sticks if you are using them. Freeze for 8 hours or over night. Then carefully show the bottom part in running tap water, set aside undisturbed for at least 2-3 minutes then slowly remove the popsicles.

Serve immediately!

Expert Tips

• Boil the milk – it is advisable to boil the milk before using it. It gives a better texture.
• Stirring is important – stirring is important to dissolve sugar and cocoa powder completely before using. Otherwise, it might taste grainy.
• Freeze the first layer first – it is important to freeze the first layer completely before pouring the second layer. Freezing should be done for at least 1 hour.

Yes, you can, but choco chips add a nice bite. You can replace with nuts, sprinklers, or leave them plain.
