I didn't know this until I got into a campaign with BzzAgent.com to try out WONKA™ PEEL-A-POP™ ice cream.
BzzAgent gave me:
- A coupon for a FREE (up to $4.49) 8-count box of WONKA™ PEEL-A-POP™ frozen dessert pops, redeemable at your local Kroger store.
- A Wonka-fied whistle to let kids know when they can come running for a peelable pop.
- A WONKA™ branded beach ball and pair of sunglasses for outdoor summer fun.
- $1-off coupons to share with other parents who also shop at The Kroger Co. Family of Stores.
My Review
I was expecting for the banana peels to be Laffy Taffy or Airheads but was bummed when I was eating it and it was not. I tried both flavors Vanilla Grape and Vanilla Banana and out of the two the Vanilla Banana was my favorite one.The way the ice cream pop works is you bite it, peel it, and enjoy. The banana peel is lacking in flavor and the texture is gummy or maybe like a gummy jello. But what ever it is I do not care too much for it and they should've stayed true to their brand and used Laffy Taffy or Airheads as peels.
The ice cream in the middle is vanilla and that is the best part of the ice cream pop. It reminds me of eating vanilla pudding and I happen to love vanilla pudding.
Both of my daughters got a chance to eat this frosty treat and my oldest daughter Lauren did not care for it and my youngest Michelle loved it.
I like the fact that these Peel-a-Pops are only 70 calories so these pops is great to have to treat yourself or just a fun treat for kids during the Summer months.

Is WONKA™ PEEL-A-POP™ Worth a Try?
I think these are great pops for kids and they'll enjoy peeling them and then eating them. I think it is the prefect Summer time treat that will tickle their taste buds.
Have you tried these Peel-A-Pops before?
Disclosure- I received a free coupon to buy the ice cream pops to do a review. All opinions are my own.

I saw these in the store, but didn't get them. The concept sounds interesting...I can't wrap my head about the "peeling" part, but wouldn't mind trying it out. I probably would like the Vanilla/Banana the best.
ReplyDeleteI think these pops are more for children. Those peels are not that good and I could do without them.
DeleteI noticed these the other day and was curious. Thanks for your review
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Anna!
DeleteI'm gonna risk the 70 calories and check these out. Always looking for a low calorie alternative to Haagen Dazs LOLOL
ReplyDeleteLOL! Yeah they are for sure a better alternative than Haagen Dazs!
DeleteI have seen these and have definitely wanted to try them and now I will! I'm interested in the peel. I keep thinking it's going to be like a fondant or something
ReplyDeleteThe peel is pretty weird and the taste isn't that great and I don't like the texture of it. But the ice cream inside is good.
DeleteFirst, I am SO GLAD y'all were honest w your reviews! The Popsicle is very interesting w that peel part.
ReplyDeleteThanks Aimee! I'm always honest when it comes to my reviews.
DeleteYummy! Perfect for a hot day! I love that they don't have a lot of calories!!
ReplyDeleteThe calories is the best part! LOL!
DeleteSounds like something my son would love. Too bad the outside isn't so good :(
ReplyDeleteYeah this ice cream is prefect for kids.
DeleteI knew about the candy not the ice cream.. there candy is great, so i am sure the ice cream pop are also.
ReplyDeleteI love Wonka's candies but not really this ice cream.
DeleteThe concept sounds interesting but I would be afraid that it would be too messy. The peeling, touching, then stickiness would scary. Sounds like they may need to go back to the drawing board on this one.
ReplyDeleteIt actually is not sticky to my surprise. But they missed the mark with that peel because it is not very good.
DeleteIt seems like a kid-pleasing treat. I'm not sure I'd buy them for me, but for kids, yes.
ReplyDeleteYeah it is more for kids.
DeleteThose are so cool. I am going to see if they have them at our grocery story my son would probably love these.
ReplyDeleteYour son would enjoy them Danielle.
Deleteawesome! it looks like one of those sweet treats right out of Willy Wonka factory!
ReplyDeleteIt does doesn't it!
DeleteTotally didn't know Wonka made ice cream! cool
ReplyDeleteYep they do now!
Deleteohh those look so yummy! And I love the peeling part! lol We love Wonka candy - will definitely try them out!
ReplyDeleteTry it out Debbie and see what you think. It is not tart like Wonka's candies are.
DeleteI love how candid you are. The idea sounds completely gross to me to be perfectly honest.
ReplyDeleteLOL Emmy!
DeleteHow cool! I didn't know Wonka made frozen treats :)
ReplyDeleteYep they sure do Dawn!
DeleteHey! I shop at Kroger, too. They have a great selection of organic and vegan. Your little girls are so adorable. I wish we could have a playdate. :)
ReplyDeleteThat would be great if our girls had a playdate! Both of our girls are pretty much the same age!
DeleteWhat in the world! These are too, too funny. I bet my girls would like them. We have no Kroger near us though unfortunately, so I guess we will have to wait and see if they branch out from there?
ReplyDeleteSeems like Kroger is always the first store to get new food items. But don't feel too bad it's not in your local grocery store because these pops are not all that great thanks to the peel.
DeleteOooh! This is really different! Never seen any pops like this. Love the peeling part of it!
ReplyDeleteThe peeling part is what the kids would really like.
DeleteI've been wanting to try these. I always have my house stocked with popsicles for my two year old so we may add this to our grocery list!
ReplyDeleteYour kids may like this Jackie.
DeleteI haven't seen those before. Kind of a clever way to eat our ice cream. Seems like something fun for the kids to at least try.
ReplyDeleteYeah Stacie the kids would have fun eating these.
