Treats by Patti, an online business based in Los Angeles, CA, is proud to announce they have recently released their Simpler Treats food grade silicone ice pop molds on Amazon. The molds, which make six individual frozen pops on a stick, are available in lime green or purple and can be purchased at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B011CXAT18.
"The majority of molds for ice pops on a stick are plastic, and silicone molds tend to be roll-ups," says Patti Miner from Treats by Patti. "We believe silicone has a variety of advantages over plastic, so we wanted to make silicone molds available for pops on a stick."
Among the advantages of silicone is its flexibility, which means it will neither break nor crack when frozen. Silicone is becoming increasingly popular in the kitchen and for good reason. More details can be seen at http://thesoftlanding.com/is-silicone-toxic/. The material can withstand temperature extremes without breaking or disintegrating. Because the Simpler Treats ice pop maker is made from food grade silicone, it is perfectly safe for creating edible products. It is also dishwasher safe.
"Our mold has been designed to stand up easily in the freezer, even when some of the pops have been removed," adds Patti Miner. "It is also easy to remove the pops from the mold itself, as long as it sits on the counter for a few minutes to thaw, or you hold it under running warm water. Kids will love it and since it is BPA free, you will love it too."
The fact that the Simpler Treats mold is BPA free is important. Full details on the dangers of BPA can be found in a recent Mayo Clinic article at http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/expert-answers/bpa/faq-20058331. BPA is very controversial. It is believed to have negative effects on the behavior, brain and prostate glands of fetuses, infants and children. It should be noted that the FDA has stated that the levels of BPA in some of the plastic products and foods that contain them are so low that they don't actually cause any damage. However, at the same time, they continue to review the effects of BPA and support research on its effects and toxicity. Choosing BPA-free products is therefore a safer choice for parents.
