A little update before we get to this incredible post. I lost my phone. It’s somewhere in the ocean.
I was walking my fussy son on the beach, while my family and I were on a little vacation in Hilton Head. I was a single parent for the week since my husband had to work. So, I had Liam in the moby wrap and had taken a couple of photos of his first beach walk. I slipped it into what I thought was the solid pocket of the moby. Yeah, it wasn’t. It slipped out somewhere while I was wading in the surf. I lost ALL of my photos from the last 4 months…including all of the precious photos of my darling son. It sucks. Just saying. Moral of the story, back up your phone regularly.
My phone is how I am connected to the world. It’s how I communicate with all of you amazing people through the blog, facebook, instagram, twitter, pinterest, etc. I hope that I’ll be back up and running with a phone eventually, but until then, bare with me….and enjoy this refreshing post!
Remember this magic shell?
Yeah, I took it a step further.
These just may be my greatest creation ever.
I just recently purchased a popsicle mold. Let me just say, it’s an excellent investment, especially for the summertime.
It’s so easy to whip up a batch of frozen treats and only takes a few hours of freezing before you get to enjoy them!
These beauties are made purely out of fresh strawberries, then dipped in the amazing dark chocolate magic shell. They are our new favorite go-to dessert in the freezer for a quick and healthy sugar satisfaction!
So, while it’s summertime and fresh produce is at its peak, go ahead and whip some of these popsicles up and thank me later!

So sorry to hear about your phone… I know how frustrating an experience that can be!
On the plus side, these popsicles look fabulous =).
I lost my camera a few summers ago and was heartbroken… I totally feel for you!
These look fantastic and are so pretty!
Oooooh…such a bummer about your phone! But hopefully you can enjoy a little vacation from the social media world for a few days.
These look amazing! I would never have thought of magic shell for popsicles — perfect!!
I’m sorry for your phone..
And WOW for the popsicles!
These look so good Caroline! Have a great weekend
Oh noooo, I’m so sorry to hear about your phone! I’m having sympathy anxiety.
These look fantastic. Now I feel like I need to buy popsicle molds stat.
Oh no, SUCH a huge bummer about your phone and the lost photos. I really need to get better about backing mine up. I love these popsicles! Strawberries and chocolate is a match made in heaven
First, these look amazing, what a great idea! And second, I am so sorry about your phone, I am sure that must be just gut wrenching!!
That SUCKS about your phone and all the pictures, I’m sorry!!!!! Ugh, my heart hurts for you losing all those precious first pictures of him.
We lost EVERY SINGLE ONE of our honeymoon pictures as we were backing them up after our honeymoon, so I sorta know how you feel when such precious, once in a lifetime memories, are just LOST!
But your popsicles look amazing
oh my goodness, i’m so sorry to hear about your phone. i know how sad it must feel to have lost your pics. i feel for you, friend!
Oh, my I just want to cry for you! I can’t imaging loosing newborn photos!
The popsicles look delicious though. I guess I have a good reason to go get some molds now!
So delicious! I have to try this!!
Sorry about your phone. I’ve had mine stolen before. It’s pretty aggravating that you don’t have your photo memories with you anymore.. I get it
So sorry to hear about your phone! So not fun!!!!
But this recipe looks so dang good! Ill be looking forward to this when Im back in the summer heat in three weeks
this is such a fun recipe and definitely perfect for summer! I’m so sorry to hear about your phone!!
I know how you feel… I lost some very special pictures years back when my computer fried.
I didn’t check anything yesterday and was confused by your latest Instagram post when I woke up today. I’m so happy that you got your phone back! And these popsicles look amazing. I love that they don’t have sugar other than what’s in the magic shell! And they look super pretty too.
So sorry to hear about your phone! I wouldn’t even know how to call my parents without my phone because I don’t know their phone number by heart. (how sad is that!!)
But these popsicles are beautiful, and I can tell they would taste amazing!
Thank you for sharing where you got your ice pop molds at. What an awesome twist on chocolate covered strawberries.
These look so amazing! I will make them and use them to bribe my children
Yes! Finally learned that lesson about backing up, the hard way. Love that you used nothing but strawberries and water for the pops.

I’ve been reading your blog for a while but never commented before. But, I used this magic shell on popsicles I made from banana pureed with a little coconut milk and it was so good I had to comment. I’m thinking peanut butter & banana pops + magic shell would be even better! Thanks for the great idea.
You are a genius! That sounds fabulous! I’m so glad you commented.
That sounds amazing!!!!!! What a great idea!!!

Where did you find the popsicle molds?
I purchased the mold at Amazon.
how do you make puréed strawberries
Hey Barb,
I’ve modified the instructions to make it more clear. Hopefully that helps!
Thanks for pointing that out! Best, Caroline
We lost my husband’s phone and about 8 months of pictures. We found this nice website/app dropbox.com any time you take a picture on your phone it automatically uploads it to their website where you can download a full version of the picture or video. I’m always forgetful about backing up things and this makes one less thing to worry about.
That’s exactly what I signed up for as soon as I got a new phone. Luckily I was able to recover all of my photos from my old phone, but my heart was racing there for a while!
Thanks for the great tip Rebekah!
Love the colors for these popsicles! Strawberry and chocolate are great together. Definitely need to try. I got myself a popsicle mold last summer, but I have only used it once. It is about time to take them out again.
Hi:) I can’t see the recipe for the chocolate:) it won’t let me go there. Would you mind posting it on here?
Weird. The link works fine for me! Here’s the link for the magic shell again.
Thanks:) I finally got to it. Yay!!:)
These sound amaze-balls! I love the chocolate magic shell and use it all the time. I also make frozen banana softserve pretty often and have been experimenting with flavors. I recently tried using wine as the liquid to make the bananas move in my processor and then refroze in tupperware. It came out more scoop-able and super yummy. All that to say that if you replaced half or all of the water in your strawberries with wine? This might be a fabulous parents only treat! I think I’ll try it soon, both ways.
I like the way you think Amanda! Sounds amazing!

These popsicles look AMAZING!! I wanted to let you know that I featured your incredible recipe in a blog post today as one of my favorite pins of the week!
http://chattingoverchocolate.blogspot.com/2013/04/oh-how-pinteresting-2.html … Have a fabulous day, Caroline!
Hey Brenda! What a great idea and thank you so much for including me!
these look delish!
I know this is nit-picky but it really irks me when I see a recipe that says – just three ingredients when one of those ingredients is a made product (or a mix). Some of us make everything from scratch. Making the magic shell only really adds 1 ingredient so why not say you can make these from 4 ingredients. I don’t follow your blog but found it because I was curious about the 3 ingredient chocolate covered strawberry pops.
Hey Sara, That’s a very good point. I never said anywhere that there were just three ingredients in my post. The ingredients list contains just three things (the magic shell as one of them) because I wanted to share how to make the magic shell in a separate recipe instead of making the popsicle recipe any more complicated. I’ve found that simple recipes are the way to go. Plus, when I made these popsicles I already had the homemade magic shell waiting for me in the pantry, so it really only took those three ingredients. I apologize that the place that sent you here advertised that there were only three ingredients and wasn’t clear on the fourth. But, hey, if you make the magic shell and just keep it in your pantry for a ‘rainy day’, you’ll only need the three ingredients too!
Have a great rest of your day! And thanks for visiting!
Totally gorgeous! I’d love for you to add them to our link party at The Hopeless Housewife!
I’d love to Erika! Thank you!
