Popsicle Tips:
After 30 minutes, adjust the sticks if you see they are not standing straight up.
For cleaner divisions between the layers, wipe the inside of your popsicle molds clean after you add a layer. Or, pipe in the layer using a bag fitted with a round tip.
To remove the pops from the mold, run the outside of the mold under warm water just until they begin to loosen when you pull on the stick.
