These adult ice blocks are great for summer entertaining.

Grated zest of 2 limes, plus 2 teaspoons lime juice
1/2 cup (110g) caster sugar
1/2 small pineapple, peeled, cored, sliced
1/4 honeydew melon, peeled, sliced
1/4 rockmelon, peeled, sliced
2 kiwifruit, peeled, sliced

Limoncello & lime popsicles

1/2 cup (125ml) thickened cream, whipped
395g can condensed milk
1/4 cup (60ml) limoncello
Grated zest of 1 lime
1/2 cup (125ml) lime juice (about 6 limes)

Method

1.

Start the popsicles the night before. To make, combine all the popsicle ingredients in a bowl, whisking gently to combine. Pour into 12 ice-block moulds, then freeze for 1-2 hours until firm but not completely frozen. Insert a popsicle stick into each mould. Freeze for at least another 2 hours or overnight until firm.
2.

To make the sugared lime zest, pound zest, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt with a mortar and pestle, or blend in a mini food processor, until combined.
3.

To serve, dip the bases of the moulds in warm water and slide out the popsicles. Place fruit on a platter and drizzle with the lime juice. Serve the popsicles immediately with the fruit, and sugared zest to sprinkle.
