Mango and Mixed Berry Frozen Yoghurt Sticks

We’re well and truly feeling the heat of summer and icy poles are a delicious way to cool off. George loves them and asks for one most days. Making my own with seasonal fresh fruit allows for endless flavour combinations and by avoiding unwanted artificial colours, flavours and preservatives I can feel good about him enjoying them.

Nutrition Note: Homemade frozen yoghurt is super simple to make and a nutritious, calcium rich alternative to ice cream.
