Whatever Pops

Tried this for the first time at the Grilled Cheese Festival and I gotta say, I thought it was amazing. There were so many flavors, I had a hard time picking. I ended up with strawberry mango and coconut banana. The strawberry mango was refreshing and tasted amazing, I thought it was sweet but in a natural type of way. The coconut banana was very creamy and light in flavor. Overall, it was smooth, but I thought it was kinda boring. But it did resemble a nice vanilla alternative, so I was still very content. I can’t wait to try all of the other flavors, I sure, they will taste just as amazing!

Tampa is hot. Sometimes, you just need to cool off. Cue Whatever Pops.
Admittedly, I’m not really a popsicle person. I spent last weekend at Gasparilla Music Festival. Because I’m pregnant, I couldn’t cool off with a beer (as I usually do). I spotted Whatever Pops on the first day and decided that a Watermelon Citrus pop would be just the ticket to cooling off with a refreshing treat. It was absolutely delicious and just what I needed. The following day, I tried out the Lemon Cream. I thought the second pop was even better than the first.
The gentleman working was extremely friendly and gave me a frequent buyer card. The new location that Whatever Pops is opening in Seminole Heights is walking distance and I can safely say that I am now hooked and will be a frequent visitor of the location.
Thank you, Whatever Pops, for providing my pregnant self with a cool treat on a hot day!

My friend had the earl grey lavender lemonade Popsicle — delicious. I want to try the coconut lime one next time!

I had the Bartlett pear pop, and I’m pretty sure if you froze a Bartlett pear, and did a blindfolded, side by side taste test with the pop, you couldn’t tell the difference! This is the most amazing popsicle I’ve ever eaten!

Great unique flavors! Especially in the hot Florida sun, this is a must! You will usually see them at out door events like local fresh market days, Fall fest, food truck rally’s, and etc. Some flavor combinations sound strange but in Popsicle form it works! It makes for a refreshing snack. They also offer doggy pops, which are mostly based on a peanut-​butter ingredient. As a frequent customer, I have collected many stamp cards and redeemed my free Popsicles whenever I encountered this portable stand. From what I recall, all the ingredients used are natural. #Refreshing

Coconut Lime all the way!
I first was introduced to these delicious pops at the Hyde Park farmers market where they have small cart. They are $ 3.50 each and the ingredients are sourced locally as much as possible.
The coconut line has been my selection twice in a row now and I Love it! You can really tell its homemade with the punch of flavor you taste and right then you know it’s not artificial!
I was very happy to stumble upon their more permanent location at Duckweed market downtown Tampa at the Element building. Now I know where to go more regularly!
I would definitely recommend to anyone and the price is justified on a hot day walking around with a taste of happiness!

Delicious and refreshing. Perfect for a hot summer day. Flavors are creative and variety ensures there’s something for everyone in your group.

Absolutely fantastic. Did not think I’d ever write a review about a popsicle, but if you pass it, you should absolutely stop and you will be impressed. We tried the Earl Grey Lavender Lemon and another that was Banana Coconut. Both were fantastic and we’d recommend Whatever Pops to anyone!

O MY GOSH!
There are the best pops EVER! I have tried so many flavors that I can’t even keep track of them! I have yet to have one that I don’t like! My fav? The Sea Salt Carmel one!
O not to mention that they goodies for furbabies too :)

By far the best gourmet ice cream pops I have ever had! You must try it.
I absolutely love their unique and delicious flavors. I look forward to events in down town just so I can get my hands on some of these delicious treats.
They even have little pops for your furry friends.

I’ve had these at several food truck events and they are incredible. Very fresh ingredients and unique flavors. Love the Riesling Pear and the Strawberry Basil.

I’m not a huge popsicle person, but I’ve made a couple stops at this little cart. The lady manning it was super nice and gave me suggestions about what to try. The first one I tried was a coffee caramel and I could only taste the coffee. It was also weird having a semi dairy popsicle, so I’m not sure I would do that one again. The second time I saw the cart I tried a fruity one and enjoyed it a lot more. I will say I wish they had a bit more texture in their pops (at least the fruity ones, because that would make sense more than chunky coffee…), but I guess that’s just how they choose to make them. I really loved their unusual flavor selections and wished I could try them all!

Amazing ice pops! These are some of the best I’ve ever had in the country. They have such interesting flavors. I especially love their lavender lemonade and blackberry green tea. I still regret not getting the chocolate peanut butter zucchini pop that I saw once.

I moved down to Tampa from the northeast about two years ago and Whatever Pops was one of the first local business I thought was such a great idea. They are portable so if you hear of a market or a food venue going on you are sure to spot Whatever Pops. With this FL heat it is a great way to cool down!
Their menu changes and they create great flavors with every season. One summer I remember being addicted to their sweet and refreshing cucumber mint! Last fall I was also in love with their pumpkin cheesecake (literally had some graham crumble at the bottom of the pop), orange was my boyfriends absolutely favorite. He told me it reminded him of his childhood eating orange creamsicles. My daughters favorites have included chocolate sea salt, strawberry mango (mango flavor molded inside strawberry), coconut lime and many more. They even make pops for pups. My dachshunds devoured that pop down to the popsicle stick.
Best of all Whatever Pops stays true to using local produce.
Try them out and don’t forget your punch card!

These whatever pops are great. The guy has stand at most events in Tampa and I always know I can get a unique popsicle that tastes awesome.
They are all natural and he has the coolest flavors. He also gives you a punch card every time you go so you can eventually get a free one.

I love these tasty little treats. Whatever Pops are locally made with tasty fruit and fruit bits of whatever inside of them. There are no preservatives or fake-​ass dyes in these frozen bars of fun.
I recently went on a popsicle binge with trying a coconut lime, strawberry mango and watermelon citrus. My subsequent brain freeze was totally worth it!
Pick up one at the new Duckweed Urban Market or at your nearest food truck rally.

Why 5 stars? Because these popsicles are serious.

I have a serious popsicle problem. I once at a 100-​pack of Pop-Ice’s in less than two days. When I buy a 12-​pack of those Philly Swirls from Publix… it is absolutely a «one-​sitting» occasion. I think popsicles are God’s way of saying that he loves us.
Whatever Pops delivers a high-​quality product. If Philly Swirls are Mich Ultra, these are a Belgium dubbel. You couldn’t eat twelve in one sitting, because they’re just too rich for that kind of keg-​standing.
Whenever I see Whatever Pops out at a food truck rally, it’s required shopping. I highly recommend you do the same.

I was super excited to see a ‘Whatever Pop’ stand pop up in the Westchase Saturday Fresh Market this. I immediately bee-​lined for the stand and asked for permission to take photos before I placed my order.
The man was incredibly friendly and accommodating!
I had the hardest time picking a flavor because everything sounded delicious! My brother ordered the Cucumber Lemon and I ordered the Riesling Pear.
Both were delicious! His pop’s consistency was harder and ice like whereas mine was creamier because of the pear.
The man was kind enough to punch two holes in the business card /​reward card. He informed me that the 10^th pop is ALWAYS free. Great customer service and super kind. He told me to be sure to check social media to see where they will be ‘popping’ up next.
Definitely a wonderful treat and only $ 3 a pop!

So love then. First had them at the MOSI food truck rally. I tried the piña colada at $ 3 each. It really was the best thing I tried that night. Mocha my pup was so happy to have a puppy pop. He ate it up so fast. Today they were at the Shops of Wiregrass Fresh Market and I had watermelon lime. It was as yummy and refreshing as ever. Loved loved!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST PLACE to get popsicles in Tampa. That’s saying a lot coming from a person that doesn’t really have a sweet tooth. Only all-​natural, fresh ingredients are used which make these popsicles far more delicious than any popsicle you can buy at your local grocer’s. The flavor combinations are unlike any you will find anywhere. With flavors like Pineapple Cilantro and Riesling Pear, it’s always an adventure for your taste buds. My personal favorites are Arnold Palmer and Coconut Lime.
If you haven’t had one of these amazing popsicles yet, then you’re definitely missing out! They’re great on one of the many hot Florida days.
