    dunno if you can buy LC icepops - I have seen Sugar-free ones. You can
    always make your own LC popsicles by freezing whatever floats yer boat :o)

    I don't know what Jello Light is - you should look on the packages for sugar
    content. Is Jello Light a US product? I buy "Sugar-Free Jello", it is
    sugar-free but has aspertame and gives me cravings so I really don't use it
    much.

    There was a recent thread where sombody here was going to try it.
    Apparently there is a question as to whether Kool-Aid with artificial
    sweetener will freeze properly. So, whoever that was, report!

    Years (too many) ago, I liked frozen grape Kool-Aid better than any
    store-bought popsicle. Don't need or want them any more though.

    Does bourbon freeze?

    You can buy sugar-free Popsicles in supermarkets around here, no
    problem. They definitely use aspartame and acesulfane K as
    sweeteners. (I can't tell for sure if that's all since the ingredients
    list is partially under the pull-tab section of cardboard you remove
    to open the box. Probably the full list is available on the web
    somewhere.)

    Regular Kool-Aid made with sugar makes a fine substitute for regular
    Popsicles when frozen. The texture of these "Kool-Aid cubes" is fine.
    Sugar-free Kool-Aid, however, has a problem with texture since it's
    the sugar that softens things. As you might expect, sugar-free comes
    out like a solid cube of ice. That's harder than most people want.

    The suggestion was made in this newsgroup to add some unflavored
    gelatin to the mix before freezing. I haven't tried it myself, since
    the sugar-free Popsicles are convenient, have the right consistency
    already and bring back childhood memories of those exact flavors.

    In the discussions on making sugar-free ice cream, people reported
    better texture from adding alcohol to the mix before freezing.
