Watermelon, kiwi and lemon ice lollies (traditional method & Thermomix)
Description
These homemade ice lollies are not only adorable, but also 100% natural and perfect for hot days. A layer of melt-in-the-mouth watermelon, sprinkled with chocolate chips to imitate seeds, a layer of smooth lemon yoghurt in the centre, and a tangy kiwi base – a real treat to make with the kids (and even more so to eat!).
