About
Reserve our truck, “Big Poppa”, or one of our vintage ice cream carts for your next event. We love to help celebrate all occasions. Here at Pleasant Pops, we specialize in only 1 type of catering: we bring our delicious fresh fruit and dairy ice pops to wedding and special events. We have a delicious product and can bring an ice cream truck or vintage push cart to your event for a one of a kind dessert or cocktail hour treat for your wedding.
Pleasant Pops was born in 2009, because we really liked traditional Mexican ice pops called paletas and couldn’t find any in Washington, D.C. When we created Pleasant Pops we wanted to combine the Mexican tradition of fresh fruit ice pops with local and sustainable agriculture from the greater D.C. area.
The result? After experimenting with flavors in the kitchen for a year, Pleasant Pops sold our first pop in July 2010, and we now have over 100 flavors, all of which are original recipes made from locally sourced fresh fruit, veggies, herbs, and dairy. Now you can find Pleasant Pops at D.C. farmers’ markets and at our truck “Big Poppa.”
In September 2012 we opened our first store in Adams Morgan in NW Washington, DC.

We loved having Pleasant Pops at our wedding! I was too busy to have any but my husband made up for it by having 3 of the 4 flavors we offered! And I have to admit, I stole a few bites from other people! They showed up on time and were super flexible when we had to shift our timeline a bit. Many of our guests commented on how delicious the pops were and mentioned they plan to visit Pleasant Pops the next time they are in town. Would highly recommend!

Pleasant Pops was a great addition to my wedding. The unique flavors were a huge hit among our guests and it was a great way to keep everyone cool during the outdoor cocktail hour. Brian and Roger from Pleasant Pops were very professional and timely with their responses prior to our big day and I had several guests compliment on how friendly and courteous they were when handing out the pops at the wedding. I did not choose my flavors until very close to the wedding and they were extremely flexible and helpful. I highly recommend Pleasant Pops to anyone that would like to provide guests with a cool and tasty treat!

We could not have asked for a better dessert caterer for our wedding than Pleasant Pops. So many of our guests commented on how unique and delicious the pops were. We had alcoholic pops and non-alcoholic pops, and I can say they were all awesome - because I tried them all. The pops proved to be the perfect treat to cool off after dancing, and our only regret was that we didn't order more. Roger and Brian were professional throughout and happy to meet all our needs. They have the freezing/logistics down to a science. I think a number of our friends who saw what a hit it was will be having pops at their weddings too.
On a number of occasions I've DJed wedding receptions at which Pleasant Pops provided dessert and each time they were a huge hit with the guests. Pleasant Pops has a storefront in DC that is very popular and they regularly cater weddings by offering an assortment of unique popsicle flavors with locally sourced ingredients. Ordering from Pleasant Pops provides a very hip and novel culinary accent to wedding receptions and I hope that I'm DJing another wedding at which they're served soon! My personal favorite is their Strawberry Ginger Lemonade pop!
