Coconut Ice

Take a trip down memory lane with this easy version of a classic British treat, Coconut Ice. Traditional crumbly texture, and a pink strawberry flavoured layer. Quick and easy to make in under 10 minutes, and they also make an attractive gift.

Coconut Ice

Ice ice baby!

Do you even remember that song?! If not, you’re clearly not as old as me. 🙁

Not that I’m all that old anyway. I’m just 25 with 7 years experience! 😉 I really can’t believe that song was released in 1990. I was just 9 years old back then! Yet it still feels like yesterday. Two out of 3 of my children are now older than I was now, when that song was released.

That just seems weird!

If you have a sweet tooth, and you like coconut, then you’re in for a treat with these not so little pink and white bites! So exhilarate your tastebuds with the old school confection that is Coconut Ice.

These puppies remind me so much of those warm summer days. Feet up and an ice cold glass of Malibu and Coke. I added strawberry flavouring to the top half but you could make these into tipple bars too. Perhaps adding a dash of Malibu to half or all the mixture! Or colour half green and add peppermint flavouring, pink/red with strawberry (as I did). Options are endless!

These couldn’t be easier to make too. It’s a fabulous ‘no cook’ recipe with only 3 ingredients! There’s no sifting to do neither {hoorah!}

If you’re not a fan of super sweet, use unsweetened condensed milk instead of sweetened, if you can get your hands on it. P.S. I have a recipe for sweetened condensed milk. Just omit the sugar and you’ll have your own unsweetened condensed milk!
