And I always sold every one ov them. But these things should be $1 each cause koolaid and shuga...ain't cheap! I don't sell them anymore but everyday and anywhere I go, someone always ask me if I still sell dem good ass frozen cups😂. And when da lil kids see me dey say...dey go da chilli cup lady. I kiss it.

      Wow that's cool to hear from an actual candy lady herself. I couldn't imagine have 3 freezers in my place. lol 100 to 200 flips a day. Wow you were making a lot of money back then. I know that was a lot of work too! Yeah I'm sure Kool aid and sugar was definitely not cheap back in the day. Now it's really cheap to buy. Still popular though. It's amazing how things have changed since then. Thanks for sharing your story.

    Charlie thank you for bringing back old memories. My grandmother was one of those people who had her own store out of her low income apartment in Lake Charles Lousiana. The kids & adults would come from miles around to get her frozen cups. U made them perfect. When my grandmother made her frozen cups it was like taking a science class everything had to be measure down to the T. Other women in her complex would try & sale frozen cups but they where no match to my grandmother. Besides her special love she put into making them she also had 2 secret ingredients she put in her cool cups, that definitely kept them wanting more. My grandmother would get up early in the morning because the kids would come before they went to school. Believe it or not this is how my cousin college got paid, my aunts down payment for a car & also my cousin was able to have a beautiful wedding off that strong black woman hard work. I can go on & on about my grandmother. I learned(I know this isn't proper grammar) so much from her. All her wisdom is what keep me going daily. Thanks Charlie for not letting those old traditions die. May my grandmother aka mother Dear R.I.H!😇

    Mrs. Clay, who did three generations of hair in my family, sold snacks on the side, including these _Chilly Cups._ 😊 She put hers in paper cups, which made pushing the ice up easier than a plastic cup. Man, this takes me back. 25¢ each back in the ‘80s…or a free treat, if you were well behaved waiting for your mom’s hair appointment to be done 😉😄

      Yeah Dixie cups seems fitting as that's what the liquid was frozen in. Makes sense. Glad this video brought back memories. Thanks Curletta! :)

    This brings back childhood memories...we use to buy them from a lady for .25 cents
    Especially the pineapple and the pineapple chunks on the bottom

      @CharlieTheCookAndrews  4 года назад

      Oh yeah them pineapple chunks at the bottom it was sooo good. They even had some with fruit cocktail at the bottom too. Those were good but I love the pineapple ones muchhh more. Glad this video brought back memories.

      stlgirl3674 yes I add it to tropical punch or the blue raspberry lemonade. It’s bomb

      smileyface985 That name seems fitting since that's the cup the liquid was frozen in. Ohh yeah the pineapple juice just takes it up a notch further. Some people even add fruit cocktail or fresh pineapple. Soo good! :)
