Did the heat break where you live? It finally stormed off last night, thank goodness. I grew up in Texas, as most of you know, so I should be able to handle this. But, even I need little tricks to keep things cool and comfy.
So, when I came across this beautiful popsicle recipe from 100 Layer Cake, I knew it was worth sharing!
These packaged violas from Terrain would be perfect to use in these popsicles or in ice cubes, on salads or for topping cupcakes! I picked up several packages the last time I was there and have been gifting them to friends for these very purposes.
How pretty are these floral popsicles? Wouldn’t they would make for a great little project with the kids? What a perfect treat for after camp or after work….simple summer goodness!
Stay cool!!
Almost too pretty to eat!! I love them, what a beautiful idea for a party, talk about a conversation starter…..so pretty. Thanks Elizabeth for a great idea that I think I am going to try:)
Enjoy your Monday, SOOOOO happy the heat wave broke, it was unbearable. Cheers to cooler days ahead and pretty Popsicles!
So glad that things are cooling off for you on the East Coast! I agree with Tina, they are almost too pretty to eat. Love the edible flowers. Such a clever idea!
Have a lovely week! XO
Mmmmm! So pretty, fun and refreshing!! My nieces would really enjoy making these with their friends. Can't wait to share it with them. Have a great week, Elizabeth.

The boys may think it a bit strange to have flowers in their popsicles but we think these are lovely! And very cool…

So pretty Elizabeth! Edible flowers are so much fun to add to a salad, cheese plate.. and a Popsicle! Perfect for a summer dessert or ladies luncheon.

Prettiest popsicles I think I've ever seen! The heat just broke here too and the temps were in the 70's today (most of the summer it's been mid-90's to 100). It literally feels like a breath of fresh air! When it's sooooooo hot, it's hard to find the energy to do anything! lol Happy summer, Elizabeth 😉 xo ~S
