Huck-A-Buck Recipe
This is what we kids in New Orleans called Freeze Cups. I sold them from our house when I was fourteen. This was my first self-employed job.

We did this when I was a little girl but we used ice trays and we loved the kool ice!


Looks like fun! you got my 5


Gotta LOVE the name!


We used to make these and sell them for a nickel when I was a kid. Thanks for the memories. You get my 5 :)


We used to make these, too. They were fun and tasty. Got my 5....thanks so much!


The name is cool! thanks for sharing
jett


Memories! We made these as kids too...we didn't sell them...we ate them lol


Oh yeah - those first "jobs" were definitely the most fun! I sat on a curb outside a chicken place and ran car orders inside for the cook to package up...a bit before microphones and drive-thru's became the "norm"!! Great memories - thanks for sharing yours...


Oh gosh, Frank Davis mentioned these this morning. Reminded me of the lady around the corner who sold them out of her side door. I don't know what she put in it, but it tasted better than the other Moms' in the neighborhood. She used to have a line of kids out her door after school and during the summers. Thanks for the memories; 5*!


Terrific! :)


I remember these. my grandma was the "candy lady" for our neighborhood in texas and she sold these. i haven't had kool-aid since then. thanks for the post and the memories.
