Gelato Dreams to POPtruck

HipPOPs journey started in 2012 with its passionate founder, Antony “Tony” Fellows who brought along 30 years of frozen dessert experience. He shaped a vison into something entirely new: gelato on a stick. Stylish, social and portable, Tony’s desire was to break away from traditional ice cream shop models and to bring high quality, artisanal gelato directly to you, wherever you are, from parks to street corners to festivals and celebrations. His ideas gave birth to the iconic POPtruck, a colorful, bold dessert truck designed with form and function at the forefront, engineered to serve hand crafted treats with flair. Florida locals quickly became loyal fans as the brand gained traction, with its one-of-a-kind customizable gelato experience. Word spread because customers loved crafting their own dessert combinations served by the team, and because it was just delicious. The brand was given early acclaim including recognition as one of the Top 10 Dessert Trucks in America by the Daily Mail, for the brands innovative concepts. But this was only the beginning.

A serendipitous encounter on Miami Beach marked the next chapter of growth. Tony met a group of entrepreneurs from Denver who were just as passionate about quality food, and customer experience, and just like that HipPOPs expanded to the Mile-High City. This partnership shared the same values, attention to detail, an unstoppable drive to delight customers, and of course a love of desserts. HipPOPs Denver launched in 2020 with not only a POPtruck but a dedicated creamery, a reinforcement to the brands commitment to quality.

Since then, the brand has continued to evolve, adding more POPtrucks and expanding into catering services, launching an online shop, and even exploring franchising and licensing opportunities to continue to bring the artisanal treats to communities across the country. The brand has stayed true to its roots through each chapter of growth, to make handcrafted products with care, and to serve in a way that feels joyful and social.
