Excellent choice! I would buy them again.

I am happy with the Tovolo brand in general. I own several different Popsicle form styles (bug, star, ice cream cone, rocket, ring pop). I like the company's choice of plastic, durable quality and fun styles. I thought the price was a bit high; however, when I considered the quality and years I would get out of them, I was sold. As a mom, I like the forms that allow you to easily slip the popsicle back in if the form if/when your child wants to take a break from eating it. They all fit back in; however, some of them (rockets for example) only fit in the form one way. It is a bit tricky for my 2 1/2 yr old son to get the rocket pop back in the form and by the time he tries a few times, some of the wings have scraped off and made a little mess. The star and ice cream cone forms on the other hand are a cinch to slide the half eaten pop back in. Many people have said that the ring pops are too small; however, I knew they were going to be small when I bought them...they are ring pops and are supposed to be small. There are times I only want my son to have a small popsicle and they work perfect in those situations. He gets to choose which popsicle he wants and he does not seem to care about the size if it is his choice to pick the little one. Another thing I read about in reviews is the ability for the stick to "catch" drips. I have found that if you fill the form a little less than full that a gap remains between the popsicle and the base of the stick, which allows for the stick to catch the drips. Keep in mind that even if they are caught, they will still spill out when your child tips the popsicle at an angle. The form with the biggest reservoir for catching drips is the ice cream cone by far. All of that being said, if I had to choose a favorite shape, I couldn't do it...I like all of them. So far, my son has chosen the rocket the most, then it is a tie between the ice cream cone, the star and the ring pop. He has not yet picked the bug shape. I ordered my forms from Amazon and hoped that I would like them. I am pleased to say that I am incredibly happy with them! After I bought all of the ones I did, I found them at Whole Foods. So, if you are on the fence and wish you could get a closer look at them, check your local Whole Foods store to see if they carry them or can possibly get them.

fun

love this product for various reasons: i make my own freshly squeezed juices for my children's popsicles, so to have these nice and small, enables the juice to go a long way! It satisfies kids craving for ice pops without being too much. my eldest is 5 yrs and she and her friends love them, so i wouldn't target these solely for toddlers. great idea. however, they are a little tricky to get out of their star shaped insert - you have to be careful. the reason they didn't get 5 stars was because 2 plastic bottoms of the rings (which insert into the stars) broke off.also i'm not experiencing the drip catcher to be any good ... but that wouldn't be an issue for me not buying these.bpa free is good - but i'm not sold on the 'bpa free' products just yet - convinced they'll find something wrong with the alternative in a couple of years. one company does sell stainless steel molds, but they are obviously far more expensive.
