If you've never eaten a popsicle with a whole brownie at the center, have you ever really lived? Steel City Pops sets out to answer that question one coffee-brownie pop at a time. It's just one of the many specialty pops on the menu, a house-made gluten-free brownie surrounded by a frozen layer of brewed local espresso, ground Turkish coffee, a touch of organic cane sugar, and cream.
Since Steel City Pops opened its doors to Austin eaters in May, local folks with a sweet tooth have flocked here for the gourmet popsicles. If you're not into chocolate, try one of the "fruity pops" like the Elderflower, which is actually infused with whole organic dried elderflowers, plus a touch of organic cane sugar and lemon. The menu also offers creamy pops like the horchata, a blend of milk, cream, and rice, cinnamon, vanilla bean, lime, organic cane sugar, and sea salt.
