Papaya Pops
Delight in Artisanal Ice Pops from Northern Ontario
Papaya Pops is a small-batch, artisanal ice pop company rooted in Northern Ontario, known for crafting vibrant frozen treats using as many local ingredients as possible. Founded by a mother-and-daughter team during the global pandemic, the business grew from a shared passion for creativity, resilience, and bringing a little joy to their community during uncertain times.
The name “Papaya Pops” is inspired by their beloved 1973 VW Westfalia, affectionately called La Papaya. Much like the spirit of that vintage van, the brand is all about embracing adventure, creating meaningful moments, and spreading smiles along the way. That sense of nostalgia and care carries through in every pop they make.
Each ice pop is handcrafted in small batches, highlighting seasonal flavours and locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. With a focus on quality, creativity, and community, Papaya Pops delivers refreshing, feel-good treats made with intention and a whole lot of love.
