Sometimes a name just doesn’t do the product justice. ย While I decided to callย these treats strawberry cheesecake popsicles, my husbands thinks they should be renamed strawberry shortcake frozen bars.

These strawberry cheesecake popsicles surprisingly taste quite similar to the bars by Good Humor.

The success of this roasted banana cheesecake ice cream led to the exploration of other frozen cheesecake treats.

Recommended Equipment and Alternatives

I use this plastic popsicle mold. It’s the same one photographed above. However, there are plenty of other options available.

These silicone molds are another great option. Those molds were used to make these ruby chocolate strawberry swirl ice cream bars and these chocolate dipped funfetti ice cream bars.

The post for these almond mocha ice cream bars show you how to make ice cream bars without a mold! Simply use a rimmed baking sheet tray.

Crunchy Crumb Coating

Pulse together graham crackers, rice cereal, and freeze dried strawberries in a food processor. This interesting concoction has the perfect amount of crunch and texture the popsicles need!

Use melted white chocolate to stick the crumb coating to the frozen strawberry cheesecake popsicles.

    I like the flavor combinations you chose, and the crunch on the outside puts them over the top.
