Thank you Eumundi Voice 💖

Congratulations to the winners of InDaily’s 40 under 40 Awards which recognise the achievements of Qld’s young business innovators and leaders. Two Sunshine Coast locals were amongst those chosen.
Alex Thompson-Welch of Eastwell Farms at Kin Kin won the Emerging Industries Award for harnessing technology and taking the family farm to the next phase of innovation.

Augusta Puttkammer, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Happy Pops, won the Food Innovation Award. Trained as a chef, Augusta created all-natural handcrafted artisanal gelato and sorbet pops from her base in Hastings St, Noosa. Established in 2018, Augusta made every single Happy Pop herself. More stores have opened since, but all Happy Pops remain handmade.

Thank you SmartCompany!

What a way to start the week.

Honoured to have Happy Pops featured in SmartCompany today, talking about our journey from one little store in Noosa to taking our first steps into franchising.

There have been plenty of twists, turns and some interesting decisions along the way 😉 Seeing our story in SmartCompany feels pretty special.
We’re only just getting started

Australian dessert brand Happy Pops is taking its first steps into the franchise world, opening a new Toowoomba store at a secret location.

When we first opened in 2018, our founder made every single Happy Pop herself.😅

These days, thankfully, she has a few more helping hands 😉

We’ve grown, we have more stores and now we’re franchising 🎉🎉, but at the heart of it, not much has changed.

The pops are still made the same way. Still handmade, 💖 still using the same quality ingredients, 🍓 still with the same care we put into them from day one.

Of course we’ve learnt a lot and perfected the process along the way, but growing Happy Pops was never going to mean cutting corners or suddenly mass producing everything.

We’re still a small family business. There are just a few more of us now 💗

Thank you The Chronicle for the lovely write-up and for helping us spread a little more Happy around Toowoomba!

Still very much pinching ourselves over here 🎉🎉

An artisanal gelato maker has kept their Toowoomba C*D location a secret, but hopes to be in time for the Carnival of Flowers. Read more here: https://bit.ly/4cC3N1w

Well… we did a thing 💕🎉

After 8 years of Happy Pops, a LOT of pops, 😆 a few crazy ideas and plenty of learning along the way, we’ve officially granted our very first Happy Pops franchise!

And we couldn’t be more excited to welcome TOOWOOMBA to the Happy Pops family 💜

This one feels pretty special. What started as a little idea has grown into something we now get to share with other people and other communities, which is honestly a bit surreal.

To our very first franchise partners, welcome to the family. We can’t wait to bring Happy Pops to Toowoomba with you.

Toowoomba, get ready. We’re coming for you! 💕 🍾

And as for where Happy Pops is popping up next… watch this space 👀
