Popsicles, also known as paletas, are traditionally a Latin American dessert made with fresh fruit. I’m a huge popsicle fan since they are so easy to make, and are a relatively healthier option for dessert. Another common snack, or dessert, are mangos sprinkled with chili powder. So I thought why not make it into a popsicle?

Now I don’t recommend you use any old chili powder, because I don’t think it would taste good, especially if it’s heavy on the powdered onion and garlic. I use Tajin Clasico Seasoning with Lime, which is used traditionally over fresh mango or jicama and can be found in Mexican groceries stores, or amazon. There is only dehydrated lime juice, sea salt, and chili peppers in this mix so you’re getting a great blend to eat with tropical fruit.
