review 1: In my family's opinion, nothing could be better in the summer than a popsicle or paleta. Gerson offers recipes for 24 different paletas, 11 for raspados or shaved ices, and 12 for aguas frescas or cool drinks. We have tried strawberry, blackberry, grapefruit, and yogurt with berries. We loved them all. Today we're debating whether to make coconut or watermelon, and I hope to try them all eventually. I'm so glad summer is nearly here again.Update: now in midsummer, we have made the watermelon and coconut, which were both too sweet for my family's taste. I love coconut so much, however, that I plan to remake them with a reduced amount of sweetened-condensed milk. I will not remake the watermelon; I think I prefer my watermelon straight up as a fruit. We have also made roaste... mored banana, which my kids loved and thought tasted like frozen banana bread, and our new favorite, lime pie. We're steadily working our way through all 24 and may complete them by summer's end. Up next: Hibiscus Raspberry.
review 2: OMG! This book was a completely frivolous buy. I don’t know what I was thinking? You see, I bought this ridiculously expensive stainless steel popsicle maker, and I wanted some recipes I could make with it. I definitely got that with this book. This book has crazy recipes like spicy pineapple and avocado. I think several of them are pretty healthy for you too. For instance, I’ve already made the blackberry yogurt pops with were yummy, yummy. Most of these recipes are easy to make too. I am very happy with this book! less
