JonnyPops is sprinkling a little everyday magic into snack time with the launch of two whimsical new treats: Unicorn Twist Organic Enchanted Fruit Punch Pops and Freeze Dried Minis.
The Unicorn Twist pops swirl together fruit-forward flavors like cherry, orange, lemonade, green apple, and blue raspberry into a unicorn horn–shaped pop. The Freeze Dried Minis, meanwhile, offer the first-ever crunchy, melt-free pops on a stick—perfect for on-the-go snacking.
Both launches highlight JonnyPops’ commitment to simple ingredients like real fruit, cream, and cane sugar. They also add a playful twist for kids and adults alike.
Unicorns in the freezer aisle? Yes, please!
JonnyPops is all about making snacks fun, and this launch doubles down on that mission.
The Unicorn Twist Pops are available exclusively at Kroger and Kroger Banner Stores nationwide. They combine imaginative design with crave-worthy flavor. The spiral shape resembles a unicorn horn, creating a magical look that appeals to kids and nostalgic adults alike.
But the magic doesn’t stop at the shape: these pops burst with fruit-forward layers of Fruit Punch, Cherry, Orange, Lemonade, Green Apple, and Blue Raspberry, creating a rainbow of flavor in every bite.
Even the sticks have been reinvented. JonnyPops introduced their first-ever round stick, each printed with whimsical acts of kindness like “Sprinkle joy today!” and “Give a magical compliment!” Beyond the sweet reminder, there’s also a reward system: fans can collect sticks to earn limited-edition goodies, such as a plush unicorn toy or a unicorn brick kit. Snack time suddenly doubles as a kindness mission.
Crunch time: Freeze Dried Minis take pops on the go
The second big debut is JonnyPops’ Freeze Dried Minis, officially the first commercially produced freeze dried pops on a stick. They answer a long-standing consumer wish: enjoying popsicles without worrying about melting.
Made from JonnyPops’ signature blend—fruit, cream, cane sugar, water, and salt—these pops are freeze-dried into a crunchy, biteable format. This makes them shelf-stable, portable, and perfect for travel. Whether tossed into a lunchbox, packed for a road trip, or slipped into a backpack for a hiking snack, Freeze Dried Minis give snack lovers an entirely new way to enjoy fruity cream pops.
Available now at select Target, Sprouts, Fresh Thyme, Fred Meyer, and more stores to come, the Minis are rolling out in flavors designed to highlight fruit at its best:
- Strawberries & Cream
- Raspberries, Blueberries & Cream
- Mangos & Cream
It’s not just an innovation in format—it’s a category-defining move. By turning frozen pops into shelf-stable snacks, JonnyPops is rewriting the rules of the frozen dessert industry.
Why this launch matters in the frozen snack space
JonnyPops’ move taps into two growing trends:
- Better-for-you snacking: Simple ingredients and fruit-based flavors meet the demand for wholesome indulgence.
- On-the-go convenience: With melt-free Minis, JonnyPops bridges the gap between frozen treats and portable snacks.
- Playful brand experiences: From unicorn-themed designs to kindness messages on sticks, the company builds loyalty by sparking joy.
As JonnyPops continues to push boundaries in format and portability, the brand will expand its innovation strategy beyond experience-driven products later in the year. By the end of 2025, the company will introduce a new line of No Sugar Added Mini Frozen Pops with Electrolytes, marking a shift toward functional frozen snacks designed for hydration and wellness occasions. While launches like the Freeze Dried Minis focus on convenience and category disruption, this upcoming product will highlight how JonnyPops is evolving to meet demand for better-for-you, purpose-driven formulations that extend beyond traditional indulgence.
