Mango Ice Candy Ingredients :
- 2 ripe mangoes (peeled and chopped)
- 1/2 cup coconut milk (or regular milk)
- 2-3 tbsp sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp lemon juice (optional)
- 1/4 tsp cardamom powder (optional)
- A pinch of salt
How to make Mango Ice Candy :
Prepare Mango Puree: Blend the chopped mangoes into a smooth puree.
Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the mango puree with coconut milk, sugar, lemon juice, cardamom powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.
Fill Molds: Pour the mixture into ice candy molds or small popsicle molds.
Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer for about 4-6 hours or until fully frozen.
Serve: Once frozen, remove the ice candies from the molds by running warm water over the outside of the molds for easy release.
Recipe Notes :
This freezer-friendly dessert is best made ahead—freeze for 4–6 hours, then enjoy at your leisure or serve straight from the freezer for maximum chill.
A quick summer snack that takes just 20 minutes from prep to freezer—perfect for hot afternoons or after-school treats.
Keep the mango fruit-forward flavor front and center by using ripe, sweet mangoes; the coconut milk adds a creamy twist without overpowering the mango.
The addition of cardamom or lemon juice is optional, depending on personal taste.
You can also experiment by adding small fruit chunks for added texture.
