It’s Popsicle Week!!! I LOVE popsicle week. If you’re unfamiliar, let me give you the low-down. Amelia’s uncle and one of my favorite humans alive, Billy Green of Wit and Vinegar, hosts it every year. This year over 100 bloggers are participating!! WHAA!!! Amazing. You might’ve noticed this in your Instagram or blog reader this week and it’s all bc of his passion for all things popsicles. Last year I made these very fun and festive Funfetti Cake Batter Popsicles. This year I wanted to get a little bit more grown-up, a little more sophisticated. Enter: black sesame paste. It’s one of my favorite ingredients (remember these cookies?). Think black tahini. That’s basically what it is and tastes like. If you’re having trouble finding black sesame paste, then just use tahini—it’ll taste EXACTLY the same. Another cool thing I found out when making these, sesame paste/tahini and strawberry go REALLY well together. I sprinkled crushed up freeze-dried strawberries on these and wasn’t really sure how they were gonna taste but MAN OH MAN SO GOOD. I shot these a day when my weather app on my phone was reading 105 degrees F outside. Well, as soon as we took them …
