First of all, having a tropical flavor to a Popsicle is so delightful and the packaging of this product is eye catching and inviting, with graphics that clearly highlights the pineapple flavor. This product comes in an easy-to-open clear plastic wrap that surely helps keep the popsicle's freshness. The quality of this popsicle is smooth, without being too icy or hard. It will melt perfectly in your mouth, giving you a nice and satisfying experience with each bite. According to the packaging the product uses 33% golden pineapple juice giving it a really fruit juice flavor. I personally like pineapples so I can definitely say it has an authentic flavor to it, although it contains a whole lot more ingredients but I guess it taste just fine.

Normally popsicles hold its shape well, even in warm temperatures, allowing you to enjoy having them at a slow pace, but for this one I guess you have to consume it right away or it will break up and melts fast. Maybe because of its smooth and soft texture that is why it does not hold up its shape well. Nevertheless this Popsicle is still delicious and refreshing! Again, the balance of sweetness and acidity is definitely spot on, making each bite invigorating. Compared to some other fruit popsicles I've tried, this one doesn’t taste artificial, which is a plus. They definitely added a generous amount of sugar to it probably, but I think it's okay as long as you don't eat it on a daily basis. One pack has five popsicles and it's worth keeping it in your fridge this summer.
