Popsicle mold in Toronto?

July 31, 2009 8:39 PM

Where in Toronto (or failing that, online) can I buy a popsicle/ice pop mold? You'd think they'd be everywhere, but I can't find one.

Bonus points for silicone or other easy-release option.

I also would think anywhere. I've seen them at No Frills, Loblaw's, Honest Ed's... However, I'm never looking for them so don't know if they're there right now. Definitely saw them at No Frills most recently, which was about 3 weeks ago.

Oh, they weren't silicone though. Just plastic.

I got mine at Dollarama at Yonge & Charles about a month ago. But, predictably, they're pretty cheap. You might want to try Kitchen Stuff Plus at either of their Yonge locations - they often have things not listed on their website.

I bought a plastic set from Ikea ages ago. I'm probably dropping by tomorrow, so if I see another set, I'll post about it, but a dollar store is probably more convenient and cheaper.

Tupperware. I just saw a cute set at the "home showcase" hall at the Calgary Stampede, so check it out at the CNE. They're almost exactly the same exhibitors at the CNE, Capital Ex, Stampede, PNE, etc.

Dollar store, zellers, canadian tire, walmart?

There are some cute silicone molds on this page if you decide to order online.

Do you need a nice shape or could you do the 'small paper cup + popsicle stick' combo?

Honest Ed's.

I bet that The Cook's Place or IQ Living, both on Danforth would have popsicle molds - both stores are good for gadgety kitchen things.

Sorry, I didn't see anything appropriate at Ikea today. They did have novelty ice trays in silicone, which could create very tiny popsicles if you added your own stick -- popsicle appetizers? -- but nothing else.

Ikea has a great set for $2. I don't think silicone/easy release is necessary. Run it under hot water for a second or two, and it'll slide right out. Never had any problems, and I've had mine for 6 months.

Amazon has tons of cute shapes. Ring pops, Twisty shape, Rocket Ships
