Franchise Opportunity
When you're craving a sweet treat, there are plenty of options. But most ice cream is full of artificial ingredients and preservatives, making it hard to find an option that's actually healthy for you. Popbar offers a healthier alternative to the standard ice cream shop menu with fresh gelato on a stick made from superior all-natural ingredients and no artificial flavors or colors. Our gelato is free of dairy, gluten and soy allergens so everyone can enjoy our treats! At Popbar we use only natural ingredients like milk sourced from local farms in New York State; real fruit purees; organic cane sugar; hormone-free whey protein concentrate; eggs from cage-free chickens fed vegetarian diets without antibiotics or growth hormones (and never fed animal byproducts); vegan chocolate chips made with fair trade cocoa butter; non-GMO cornstarch; vanilla beans imported directly from Madagascar, Tahiti and Mexico - not imitation vanillin
