Peach Raspberry Popsicles

Peach Raspberry Popsicles are easy to make with whole berries and fruit. Our homemade ice pops taste way better than those Dole Fruit Bars!
Making homemade popsicles is one of the most fun parts of the summer season for me- so many delicious flavors to choose from, like peach and raspberry. If you’re in the mood for more desserts, try some Custard Peach Pie or some No Bake Raspberry Cheesecake!
Peach Raspberry Popsicles
Hot days call for cold treats! That’s definitely one of the biggest appeals of the summer season: it’s the perfect time of year to enjoy delicious chilled foods and treats. Every winter, I’m always making a list of all the delicious cold desserts that I’m wanting to enjoy during the coming summer. Popsicles are almost always guaranteed to make that list of cravings!
These Peach & Raspberry Popsicles are a delicious flavor combo that I think is perfect for the dog days of summer this year. Separately, peach and raspberries already make for great summer fruits- peaches especially. Pureed and frozen into ice pops is one of the best ways to enjoy those tasty fruity flavors.
You can make these homemade popsicles however you like! Keep them healthy by avoiding any added sugar. While they’re not sugar-free popsicles, they’ll be sweetened enough by the natural fruit sugars. In a way, they’re kind of like those Dole Fruit Bars- except better tasting and better for you!

Ingredients for Homemade Raspberry Peach Popsicles

-
Raspberries – Again, fresh or frozen work here.
How to make popsicles from scratch
-
Blend your fruits separately until they reach a puree.
-
Pour the purees, one after the other, into a popsicle mold.
-
Insert popsicle sticks and let freeze completely before enjoying.
Start things off by using your favorite blender or food processor to work your fruits down to purees. If adding sugar or any sweetener, mix it in with a few pulses from the blender to keep things easy.
You could use these purees however you want. You could make a few Peach Popsicles and/or Raspberry Popsicles alongside some layered ones if you want! You could also add extra layers to the layered ice pops.
However you decide to fill these up, be generous and try to fill as close to the top as possible.
All that’s left is to let the popsicles freeze. Don’t forget to stick in some popsicle sticks after the pops have had about an hour to set up a bit in the freezer.
Depending on your freezer, these homemade popsicles should take about 8-10 hours to freeze fully. To stay on the safe side, we usually just wait and let them sit overnight in the freezer. Once fully frozen, carefully remove your fruity ice pops from their molds and enjoy!
How long do popsicles last?
Since these ice pops are basically nothing more than frozen fruit puree, they’ll keep very well in the freezer! I would try to enjoy these popsicles within 3 months. They will likely last longer- 6-8 months, I’d guess- but they’ll have lost some of their flavors by that point. Besides, I doubt most folks will be able to ignore these Peach Raspberry Popsicles for that long!
