The only thing better than dessert is a dessert made from more dessert. That's the essence of the new Skittles Freezer Lollipop. According to Skittles, they're a frozen popsicle that tastes like a rainbow...or at least a rainbow.
Skittles freezer pops were first spotted in the refrigerator aisle earlier this summer, PopSugar reports . As the name suggests, the popsicles come in five Skittles-inspired flavors: lemon, orange, strawberry, green apple and grape. If you're looking for new and delicious ways to enjoy your favorite fruity treats, this is the rainbow salve you're looking for.
Reviews have been overwhelmingly positive, with most noting that the frozen soda tastes almost exactly like Skittles. Indeed, the only negative reviews on Walmart.com come from a few people who received leaky boxes. To be on the safe side, you can buy a box at a store. A box of 70 popsicles sells for just $6.98 at Walmart. In other words, you can get a delicious, ice-cold dose of nostalgia for just 10 cents a bottle. Not only will each pop remind you of your candy-coated childhood, but it will also help cool you down in the sweltering heat we're currently experiencing. If nothing else, these new Skittles Popsicles will be an excuse to cool down with some candy.
Really want to go all out and express your admiration for Skittles? You have several options. In 2019, the confectionery brand launched Skittles Coolers, fruity ice cream bars filled with rainbow Skittles chunks, in the UK. Last year was clearly a lucky year for Skittles innovation, as the brand also released Skittles Singles To Go, single-serve pouches of Skittles flavored powder that can be mixed with water. So, not only can you taste the rainbow, you can also drink it. Lest you think this is the only drinkable Skittles product made last year, think again. In October 2019, Taco Bell launched a new Sour Skittles Freeze, a sweet and sour frozen drink.
Why reach for Skittles when the internet is your oyster for candy and other treats? There's Sour Patch Kids Cereal here, so you can definitely have candy for breakfast. There are also Nerds Slurpees, which I guess would pair well with Taco Bell's Sour Skittles Freeze. Just this week, The Cheesecake Factory launched a new chocolate caramel cheesecake made with Snickers bars. Classifying candy into its own food category has truly never been easier.
