  • 1
    Mix 1/3 cup sugar and your first color of gelatin mix in medium bowl. Add 1 cup boiling water; stir 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Add enough ice to 1/2 cup cold water to measure 3/4 cup. Add to gelatin; stir until ice is completely melted.
  • 2
    Repeat Step 1 with a second color of gelatin.
  • 3
    Spoon 2 tbsp of the first color of prepared gelatin into each of the 16 cups. Freeze for at least 30 minutes.
  • 4
    Spoon 2 tbsp yogurt into the cups on top of the gelatin mixture. Freeze for another 10 minutes. Then gently pour 2 tbsp of the second color of prepared gelatin mix on top of the yogurt layer in each cup. Insert a stick into each cup, then freeze for 3 hours or until frozen.

    NOTE: If the flag of the country you are making does not include white, eliminate the yogurt and do a 3rd gelatin color as described for the other colors in this recipe.

    IDEAS: Make pops in the colors of the competing countries. Host a kids around the world party. Make pops in the colors of your child's team or school. Color the pops to coordinate with another party theme (pink, white and purple for a princess party, for example). Cheer your favorite NFL team for the big game with pops in their colors!

More About This Recipe
  • Cheer on your favorite country or team with these colorful and cute frozen pops!

    I admit that I’m multitasking writing this. You’ll have to forgive me, but like people all over the world, I'm rooting for my favorite teams! Without a doubt, one of my favorite things is cheering for the athletes with my good friends.

    It is just so much more fun to “oooh” and “ahhh” and cheer together! So, for a snack to bring when we watch together, I decided to make these patriotic Flag Freezer Pops to celebrate the different countries.

    Granted, I went a little overboard and made freezer pops for about 15 countries, but you could easily just make a batch for your favorite country. Or for the top few countries in a specific race or event. Either way, these are super easy, and a super fun way to show your spirit as you watch the excitement from London!

    First, decide what colors your pops will be. I went a little overboard and did a bunch, which I admit was a little crazy to coordinate.

    Then follow the instructions to make your first batch of gelatin to create your base layer, and pop them in the freezer. Repeat every 30-60 minutes with each subsequent layer.

    Then once they are frozen, feel free to pop a cute label on the sticks. Or for something simpler, you can also just write something directly on the stick with a good marker. (Such as “Go USA!” or "Vive la France!" -- both in the same colors, by the way!)

    Then squeeze the cups and slide the pops out!

    And cheer on!
