Cupboard Lust: Zoko Instant Ice Lolly Maker

It's too hot! I want ice-cream! But...I also don't want to leave the house, much less clothe myself in suitable attire for visiting the supermarket, corner shop or chasing the ice-cream van down the street. So, what's a girl to do when sunshine-induced cravings for ice lollies strike?

Avail yourself of the Zoku Instant Ice Lolly Maker, that's what. This snazzy new invention lives in your freezer, and when the ice lolly hunger hits you, all you need to do is fill the moulds with sweet tasty liquids (like juices, smoothies, or yoghurt), slot in the lolly sticks and wait a mere seven minutes. Lo and behold, your lollies will be frozen to perfection and ready to be devoured.

You can even make multi-layered lollies, and add ingredients like chocolate chips, broken biscuits, granola or chunks of fruit. There's no batteries or electricity required, and the moulds are re-useable and machine-washable. We want one! It's £39.99, from I want one of those.
