Beat the Heat with Mega Prime Corn Ice Pops!

Sino nga ba ang hindi nakakaramdam ng matinding init ng panahon ngayon?! Sobrang intense ng init di ba?! This is the very reason why many of us prefer to stay indoors, enjoying the cold atmosphere that the air-con brings. And this is most especially true during daytime.

But wait, it is summer! Are we supposed to just let this season pass by? Of course not! We need to find a way to beat the heat!

Luckily for all of us, Mega Prime have came up with an easy-to-prepare dessert that will surely help us solve our problem - the Mega Prime Corn Ice Pops! Sounds yummy, right?! It is a cool treat that is made of easy to find ingredients, such as the new Mega Prime Cream Style Corn!

Excited ka na ba to learn the recipe? Actually, I have already tried this recipe, and now I am sharing the step-by-step procedures of how to make the Mega Prime Corn Ice Pops!

Last but definitely not the least that I pour in the mixture is the Mega Prime Cream Style Corn.

Mix the mixture well and let it simmer.

The mixture is now starting to simmer! Remember, do not let the mixture simmer or cook for too long! Once it simmer, remove the pot from the stove and let it cool. Again, do not take much time cooling the mixture as the gelatin moulds so fast!

Pour the cooled mixture to the ice pop moulds/maker.

Then place it in the refrigerator and let it chill overnight! I placed mine inside the freezer, though. :) And look, I am able to make extra ice pops (ice cream cone ice pops)!

At first, I really had a hard time popping the ice pops out of the container. But thankfully, I immediately learned that all it needed is a little shake, tap and knock for the ice pops to easily come out! Success! :)

The Verdict

So how's the taste?! If you're going to ask my panganay, she would say that the taste is okay as she is somehow a fan of corn. She was able to finish her share of the ice pop but she definitely wouldn't want to have another one!

But if you are going to ask my bunso, she doesn't like it that much. Not only is she not fond of corn, she also find the gelatin in the ice pop so odd. She was only able to eat a little bit of her ice pop, one to two bites, I think. 

As for me, the ice pop is okay. It reminded me of maja blanca, a cold or frozen maja blanca! :) So I guess,  based on our reactions and observations, this cool treat can be enjoyed more by adults, rather than the kids. So a big hurray for all the adults out there! Now, we can finally beat the heat!
