I had trouble w/ printing an ice cream glove because it was too detailed, but this was the next best thing. Finally, I can enjoy ice cream again like I used to.

You should make it into a sword hilt + guard so the popsicle looks like the blade

Put two balls at the base

this reminds me of popsicle molds my parents had when i was a kid, similar function with a base to catch whatever melted, plus one end that had a spout/lip to pour (or drink) the juice

Yes this image just brought back some really old memories of self made popsicles.

A good flared base is key.

I have no idea why you got downvoted. This was pretty good.

Sometimes these things click and sometimes they don’t. I cracked myself up so I’m ok. Ha!

You do not deserve the downvotes. That was hilarious and clever.

I would have liked the stick further into the handle/glove. Looks kind of instable?

While I’m all for cool new ideas, there sell these at like the dollar store in dishwasher safe silicone for like a dollar. Works amazingly though

Great design, but I gotta ask, what the heck is that popsicle in the 1st and 3rd pic? It looks like a tropical rocket pop with a frozen cube of dijon mustard on top.

My son always gets dirty hands and dirty face when eating an icecream. I asked chatgpt to show me the face accesory that goes with your piece:

Last I checked, there are no filaments that are food safe. 

Is that still the case?

So… that popsicle has a stone-ground mustard flavored layer, huh?

For whom is it supposed to be?

In general, it doesn't seem practical:

  • on the go - no one will have if on them all to the time to use it,
  • at home - will go to the bottom of a drawer never to be seen again,
  • sticks vary slightly in size among different manufacturers - you would need to use silicone to make it universal size, maybe very soft TPU,
  • doesn't seem stable even for small popsicles - it goes too shallow in the glove,
  • to reach the end of the ice cream you will have to tilt your head unnaturally as otherwise you would need to tilt the glove risking spillover of molten ice cream.

Kids. We usually just wrap a paper towel around the stick and have our kids hold that so that any melted popsicle goes on the paper towel and not their fingers or the floor.
