Zoku Dino Pop Molds

I am getting ready for Shark Week 2016 with this fish mold by Zoku. Before I talk about pop making, I just want to say something about Zoku. I have purchased several of their products and I have never had a problem with any (I have several ice ball makers, and ice cream freezer bowl and several different pop molds, including this one). Also, I have tried many of their other products during my time working at Williams-Sonoma. This is a Brand that you can count on. The quality of their products is outstanding and I mean that about every Zoku product I have ever had the pleasure of using. They back their products and they provide excellent customer service if you have a problem, need a replacement part or have a question about use or care. This pop maker includes six silicone molds of a shark, diver, octopus, clownfish, whale and puffer. They make a perfect size pop for little hands or for that little something cool and sweet on a hot summer day. There are a lot of recipes online for fruit pops or you can buy a book. Although these are “slow” freeze pops (Zoku makes an excellent quick pop maker too), meaning you put them in the refrigerator and wait for them to freeze the old-school way, they seem to freeze faster in the silicone molds. Even my Zoku silicone ice balls freeze faster than plastic ice ball molds. The real joy of making pops in a good-quality silicone mold is the ease of removing them when they are frozen because you can just pull them and the silicone will pull out and peel off the ice easily. The sticks are nice and have the standard holes in them so that the ice freezes through and the pop stays securely on the stick. But they kick it up a notch by adding little fish bones, and skeletons to each of the sticks. Very adorable. Each mold has its own dedicated stick (for example the whale has a whale tail and the diver has legs with flippers). I have not used this to make lollipops or chocolate but I am sure this is perfect for that, chocolate in particular. You could probably make a cute cake with white chocolate sharks popping out of blue water frosting. BPA and phthalate free. Cannot be put in the dishwasher but VERY easy to wash by hand.

I couldn't be happier with this lovely fish popsicle mold. They are the perfect size for my baby son, and each of the sticks is easy to hold and fun to use. There are little markers on the top which tell you how to orient the stick within the silicone popsicle mold so that your fishes come out well. My one complaint is that since the sticks are white, my partner threw two of them away after the meal time because they blended in with the color of the plate and he thought they were disposable. I was extremely upset given the price of the set, but then I realized that I could buy some replacement sticks on the website for a quarter the price of buying a whole new popsicle mold set. The shipping was extremely reasonable and probably below what it costs them. That made me feel so good about the company that they weren't trying to gouge people that I'm now looking at other products from the brand.

We already have two mini popsicle molds and have loved them for our very young children. These are so fun and easy to use. No complaints. Highly recommend!

I love these molds!! My kids enjoy looking at them. The mold comes out perfectly every time. They're fun for kids. Easy to use, clean up and store away. Easy to unmold - hassle free.

Adorable! So far works well! It's a very nice size. I have the Zoku minis and the Zoku Classic as well, and this is a nice in-between size. Enough to feel like a treat for a kid, but not so much that you start to worry about all that sugar. I will probably go back and get the dino ones, too. A humorous detail that I don't know if you really notice from the pics, is that once you've eaten the popsicle, the remaining eaten-side stick looks abstractly like a skeleton - but each one is a little different. Thus the skeletal part of the fish looks kind of fishy, and the whale skeleton looks a little more like a whale, etc, without being gruesome in detail. Ok, grim humor, maybe, but I feel it's done in a cute and non-offensive way.

Freeze evenly, the only popsicles that are easy to remove from the mold. These last for years (still have mine from like 10 years ago). Size is good for little toddlers and adults.

The quality of this product is amazing. I bought it as we love to make fresh and healthy popsicles at home and my daughters love them! the mould has really good details which will blown up the mind of your kids when you take a popsicle out. It is super colorful wich also help your kids to be engage and help to "cook". It gave as a healthy option to make our own flavourfull ice cream

Such a fun way to eat a popsicle! I love these molds! I have several and my grandkids look forward to their popsicle’s!

Unsere Kinder sind begeistert.

I love these. I have tried several other popsicle molds, but these are absolutely the best. (In fact, after trying them, I ordered two more.) For one thing, the silicone makes it really easy to remove the popsicles. You may have to tug a little, but they really do come out cleanly and easily. I will never go back to using the kind that you have to run under hot water in order to loosen them. For another, my four-year-old grandson loves the dinosaur shapes. And finally, they are the perfect size for a toddler or pre-schooler. Other popsicle molds make popsicles that are too big for little kids. He never finishes them and I end up having to try to store the half-eaten popsicle in the freezer (and then I have to convince him to finish it the next time he asks for a popsicle). These, he finishes in one go, and without dripping or making a mess. I can't imagine how these could be any better. They are the only popsicle molds I'll use now.

Gute verarbeitung

Won’t be able to use any other kind from now on. So simple and fun! Kids love it and so do I. Love the shapes it makes and how easy it is to remove straight from the freezer!

Bought it for my niece who loves cooking (although I realise not much cooking is involved here). We have a different zoku ice pop mould (sea creatures) and my boys absolutely love it. They come out great as long as you use it with juices. Doesn't work well with creamy ice lollies (milk, yogurt or cream based if that make sense). The mould is bit pricey, but totally worth the money and it's really great quality. We usually use apple or orange juice. Highly recommend
