Suggestions:

If you like, you can make this recipe using plastic ice-pop moulds instead of the paper cups and popsicle sticks.

For a cool-looking snack, fill your cups only halfway with one flavour of yogurt in Step 1. Follow Steps 2, 3, and 4. Remove your pops from the freezer, take off the plastic wrap, and spoon in another flavour of yogurt that's a different colour. Put the plastic wrap back on and freeze once more. When your pops are frozen, you'll have two-coloured treats!
