You might remember frozen push-up pops from your childhood, and now these sweet treats are back as the latest party trend.
There are no rules with push-up pops! From frozen novelties to cakes and pies, almost any dessert recipe can be transformed to fit in these little dishwasher-safe containers (for a list of places to buy them, see Resources). In this book, you’ll find a collection of fabulous sweet recipes for push-up pops. Following are some tools and equipment that will make creating your push-up pops as easy as can be.
Jelly Roll Baking Pan
A jelly roll pan is similar to a cookie sheet but with raised sides. Recipes in this book were developed using an 11 x 16-inch jelly roll pan. For cakes, cookies, and bar recipes, simply spread your batter or dough out to fill the jelly roll pan. There’s no need for a cookie cutter. Simply flip your push-up pop container over and use the container itself to cut and push out circles. Flip it back over to fill the push-up pop with your baked goods.
Frosting Tips
Many recipes in this book call for piping frosting, whipped topping, or various fillings. If you don’t have a frosting dispenser or a pastry bag with tips, simply place your frosting
