Calypso Jubbly Ice Lollies

My youngest son is going through an ice lolly stage at the moment (even though it isn't excatly cornetto weather at the moment) and though I do buy and make our own (we have some very funky plastic moulds you know!) I find that there isn't always room in my freezer to accomodate them. What to do? On a recent trip to my local Iceland store I spotted a box of these ice lollies that came unfrozen..in other words they are glorified ice pops. I liked the look of these as my little boy is not normally a fan of 'normal' ice pops but I felt confident he would like these because of the shape. So the product.. Price and packaging ...  Read the complete review

'Luvvly Jubbly' as Del Boy would say! It's starting to get a bit summery out there and even though I doubt it will last for long, those weathermen are saying that this weekend will be the hottest one of the year so far! So, in honour of that I decided to pop down to the supermarket (which transpired to be a bad idea - packed? On a bank holiday weekend? Who would have thought?!) and see what summery treats they had on offer. I naturally found myself in the ice cream aisle but felt that I didn't want to feel weighed down by bowls of ice cream. I wanted something nice and refreshing. Now I'm usually a strawberry split girl but these caught my eye, firstly because ...  Read the complete review

In this hot summer weather it's great to cool down with an ice lolly, or should I say that between downpours of rain we like to kid ourselves it's hot and eat an ice lolly, that's British summer for you. Anyway with such a large range of ice lollies for sale it can be really hard to decide which one you want to buy. I chose Calypso Jubbly Ice Lollies because they stood out from all the others with a blinding difference. What's so special about them? Well the come in liquid form and you can freeze them yourself! This is great news for if you want to stock up on them because you can store boxes without having to keep them frozen. I bought a box of 10 ice ...  Read the complete review

Way back in May, after we'd been promised a BBQ summer, I stocked up our freezer with an assortment of frozen lollies, ice-cream & Calypso Jubbly ice lollies, The jubblies were on offer at £2 for 2 packs of 10 so it seemed a good deal & the choice is good - strawberry, orange, blackcurrant & tropical. I opted for a box of orange & 1 of the tropical. They can be found in the drinks aisle as they aren't bought as frozen - you can drink as they are or pop in the freezer for a few hours & because of their triangular shape they are easy to slot into empty parts of the freezer. They come in brightly-coloured boxes & there's a banner ...  Read the complete review
