Anyone with children can appreciate the value in this rather simple product called the IceHuggy. It is essentially a cloth designed to wrap around [frozen desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frosty-burger), perfect for keeping drips and spills under control while maintaining the low temperature of your freeze pops.

A mother of six was the creator of this kid-friendly item. The idea of 60 sticky fingers must have given her sufficient incentive to do so. She has come up with a clever piece of highly absorbent fabric that can be adapted to swathe a number of different types and sizes of chilled edible products. [Electrolyte pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hydroice), [yogurt tubes and freezes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/softserve-ice-cream-pouches) work well with the IceHuggy. It can be folded, flipped and fastened to help establish a tight grip on these dripping desserts.
