As a kid, there was no joy more pure than eating an ice pop. Who cared that it was a preservative- filled concoction made with high-fructose corn syrup. Now that you’re older and wiser, you can recapture the same bliss with the delicious, chemical-free creations you’ll find at streetpops. Made from unique combinations of fresh ingredients and unexpected flavors, these sophisticated pops will make you feel giddy again.
Wondering who’s concocting these crazy-delicious flavors? Sara is the owner and founder of streetpops. With a creative heart, she started her career in graphic design. However, her passion for food and drink took her to the Midwest Culinary Institute. While there, Sara started to develop specialty ice cream recipes for family and friends. She then traveled around Europe and was inspired by a variety of new ingredients and flavor combinations. However, it wasn’t until she visited a local “popsicle shop” on a trip to North Carolina that she got the idea to convert her ice cream recipes into popsicles.
In 2011, streetpop was born! It started as a mobile business at the first ever City Flea/OTR 5K event. In 2012, she opened the first “pop shop” in Over the Rhine, followed by the Oakley location in 2015. Stop in, meet Sara, and try her creations! She recommends her favorite flavors avocado, mango chili, and rhubarb cardamom.
