Bust Out the Champagne Pops! You Did It!

Update #2 · Apr 6, 2012 · comment

We are thrilled that we made our Kickstarter goal in a week - and even more so that over 300 people helped us get there. While we personally know many of the names on the backer list, we're happy to see supporters from near and far who are new to the Pleasant Pops story. 

You guys are going to be featured in a big way in our store's Founders' Wall, and in the future of Pleasant Pops. We couldn't be on track to open the store this summer (early July, we hope!) without you. Now, we're meeting with local suppliers to pick the best products to sell alongside our pops in the store, learning how to make perfect shots of espresso from Ceremony Coffee in Annapolis, scouting out benches (like this one with original coney island boardwalk wood), searching for local art for the walls of our store, and dealing with the DC permitting process, of course, so we can start ripping out those old tiles and getting our hands dirty. Thank you thank you thank you for all that you have done to support the Pleasant Pops vision - we toast you all!
