I used these molds Zoku Fish Pop Molds. Love them! They pull out super easy and they come in the shape of a shark, whale, fish, octopus and diver (featured in the picture).
Zoku also makes these popsicles molds with spill guards.
Healthy Popsicles With Cacao Powder
Why Add Cacao Powder?
- Raw cacao is a delicious source of antioxidants, magnesium, iron and fiber
- Cacao powder is a healthier alternative with all the chocolate taste, but without the sugar and processing
- Helps with cavities… if you can believe it!
- You can purchase Cacao Powder from our Amazon store
It is a strong flavor for me, but when it’s cold, the flavor is very mild. I was worried the first time I made these healthy popsicles, but my twins loved them! And I ate a few too. What a wonderful treat.

If your banana is over-ripening, then toss it in. The more ripe a banana is the sweeter the taste.
