    My eldest son loves PJ masks so I just had to make him some special PJ Masks inspired popsicles for his birthday. I have used whole fruits here and minimized the sugar where possible, but it is treat food.

    To get the really bright popping PJ Mask-themed colors I resorted to using standard food coloring, mostly because I ran out of time to track down the more natural stuff. The Owlet raspberry strawberry did not need any coloring at all, the berries have a natural red color.

    The Gekko grape was more challenging. Initially I tried using spinach to color them but ended up with dark green bits floating in them, not a good look! You could try juicing some spinach leaves instead to get the juice and a more natural green color. The blue was really hard. There are not many blue foods and those that exist tend to give a purple color, such as my blueberry and cashew ice cream. Amazing color, but not blue. If you really want natural blue there are a few options you could try, such as blue spirulina powder or blue pea flower powder.

    Or you could do the easy, time-poor thing as I did and resort to good old food coloring.

    No matter how you color them these fun fruit popsicles are sure to be a welcome addition to any PJ Mask party for your little ones 🙂

    To make the PJ Masks inspired popsicles

    PJ Masks popsicles ingredients

    This recipe makes four of each color of popsicles. If your popsicle molds hold less than 12 popsicles in total you will need to make them in batches over a few days like I did.

    To make the Owlet strawberry raspberry popsicles

    Adding raspberries to blended strawberries
    Blended strawberries and raspberries

    Hull the strawberries and cut-off tops. Add to the chopping bowl of an immersion blender or food processor and blend well. Add raspberries and blend until combined. Taste the mix, if using out-of-season berries they may be a little tart and you may need to add sugar.

    Transfer to popsicle molds, add sticks and freeze for four hours, or until solid.

    To make the Gekko grape popsicles

    Adding food colour to blended grapes

    Pick grapes off the stems and add to the chopping bowl of an immersion blender or food processor and blend well until smooth. Taste the mix. If it's too sour you may need to add a bit of sugar. Mine were sweet enough so no additional sugar was needed. Add several drops of green food color until desired brightness of green is achieved.

    Adding owlet and geko mixes to popsicle moulds

    Pour into molds, add sticks and freeze for four hours, or until solid.

    To make the Catboy blue lemonade popsicles

    Slicing and juicing lemons
    Straining and adding lemon juice
    Adding sugar to lemon juice
    Adding blue colour to lemonade mix

    Juice the lemons, measure and strain lemon juice into a large measuring jug. Add sugar and top up the jug with water until it reaches 1 ¾ cups (400ml). Add several drops of blue food color until desired brightness of blue is achieved.

    Pour into molds, add sticks and freeze for at least four hours, or until solid.

    PJ Masks popsicles

    To serve the PJ Masks inspired popsicles:

    Remove from molds. I recommend doing this in advance of the party and popping them into a container lined with baking paper in the freezer. Hand out the delicious treats to your little superheroes and bask in all your hard-earned work the make the PJ Masks party a success!

    Instructions
     

    Owlet popsicles

    • Hull strawberries and cut in half.
    • Add strawberries, raspberries and sugar to the chopping bowl of an immersion blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
    • Pour into popsicle molds, add sticks and freeze overnight.

    Gekko popsicles

    • Add grapes to the chopping bowl of an immersion blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add several drops of green food colour until desired brightness of green is achieved.
    • Pour into popsicle molds, add sticks and freeze overnight.

    Cat boy popsicles

    • Juice lemons, strain lemon juice and add to a large jug
    • Add sugar and top up water to 1 and ½ cups plus 2 tablespoons (400ml), stir well until sugar dissolves.
    • Add several drops of blue food colour until desired brightness of blue is achieved.
    • Pour into popsicle molds, add sticks and freeze overnight.

    Notes

    I used regular food colouring to give these popsicles extra colour pop!
    The Owlet popsicles didn't need any food colouring, they were already a beautiful bright red.  If you prefer more natural coloured popsicles you could try juicing some spinach for the Gekko pops and some blue spirulina for the Catboy popsicles.
