Popsicle season usually means popsicle drips and messes. An easy way to slow the ice pop melt is to add a bit of gelatin to your homemade popsicles.
Amber Lou on The Paisley Cake shares this tip: Add a package of Jell-O to the juice you're using for the popsicle and freeze as usually. Gelatin is the ingredient used in "slow-melt" ice pops you find in the grocery.
Besides reducing the chances of stains, the added gelatin should also improve the texture and consistency of the popsicle. (For a vegetarian option, Popsicaholic notes you can use agar or carrageenan instead.)
