I can't find a number anywhere on the mold or the box for the Tovolo brand. Have you heard of Prepara brand that makes a "volcano" mold? Someone just bought it for my son but also does not say what the number is or whether it's bpa free or not. Thanks for your help! Heather Hi Tiffany…sorry for the delay.

I have a 16 month old who LOVES my homemade smoothie and I know he would love them in popsicle form too. Adding Greens is a FABULOUS idea. Do you think these pop molds would work for a toddler?
