Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use homemade butterscotch pudding instead of store-bought?
Absolutely! Homemade butterscotch pudding would enhance the flavor of your pudding pops. Just make sure it's completely cooled before mixing in the root beer, as warm pudding can affect the freezing process.

Typically, freezing for at least 4-6 hours is recommended for the pops to set properly. For best results, freeze them overnight to ensure they are completely solid before removing from the molds.
Can these pudding pops be made in different flavors?
Yes! You can experiment with various flavors by changing the pudding or soda. Try using chocolate pudding with cola for a unique twist, or vanilla pudding with orange soda for a refreshing treat. Each combination can lead to a fun, new dessert!
