What the heck are Push-Up Pops, anyway?
Individual Party Desserts in a Push-Pop Mold
Push-up Pops, also commonly known as "Push Pops" after a type of novelty candy, are dessert treats (frozen or no) that you make in a single-serving plastic mold.
The special clear push pop containers have a plunger on the bottom, so you can eat the dessert with no fork or spoon - and no mess.
Just push in the plunger and the dessert rises up out of the plastic tube!
Almost any kind of dessert can be made as a push pop, from layered cheesecakes to strawberry shortcake to Jello dessert concoctions to frozen-juice pops for kids and adults alike.
Push pop containers come with lids so you can take them along to a party with no mess, no spills - and the dome-shaped lids leave space enough for a dollop of whipped cream or a festive a swirl of frosting. The party dessert ideas are unlimited!
Push-Up Pops Recipe Book
This is the famous first idea-and-recipe book ever dedicated to the culinary art of the push-up pop cake. Push-Up Pops is called a "must-have book for party lovers" by Tori Spelling, who almost single-handedly brought the "push pop" back into vogue when she raved over the pink Sprinkle push cakes served at her daughter Stella's second birthday party. Spelling's review? "Genius idea!" she said.
