"This is a tasty treat from Brazil that may seem unusual to many of us - but quite delicious! Normally in Brazil, it is made from canned corn and heavy cream or sweetened condensed milk. This adaptation uses coconut milk and the result is an incredibly creamy pop. The combination of coconut milk and sweet corn is very addicting - lock up the freezer!!! From jewishfoodexperience.com."
