More Than Dessert – It’s the Happy Pops Experience
Happy Pops began in 2018 as a creative dream of husband-and-wife duo Augusta and Ian Puttkammer. From their first store in Noosa, Queensland, they set out to reinvent dessert by creating handcrafted gelato pops that were joyful, premium, and refreshingly different. What started as one small store quickly became a movement, celebrated for its vibrant flavours, clean ingredients, and playful, community-first approach.
Today, Happy Pops is expanding nationally through franchising, bringing its signature combination of indulgence, colour, and connection to families, couples, and treat-seekers across Australia. Every store delivers more than dessert - it creates a space for memories, fun, and moments worth sharing.
Our Difference
Handcrafted Quality – Pops made fresh in small batches with premium, all-natural ingredients and no artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives.
Inclusive Range – Dairy-free, gluten-free, and vegan options ensure there’s something for everyone.
Joyful Experience – Interactive topping stations, colourful stores, and Instagram-worthy presentation make every visit feel special.
Founder-Led Support – Augusta and Ian remain hands-on, providing personalised training, guidance, and mentorship to every franchise partner.
Scalable & straightforward Model – Compact stores, streamlined operations, and low staff requirements make it easy to run while keeping strong margins.
