No more having to choose between a frozen pop or scoops of ice cream. You'll soon be able to buy both at once.

Two Philly superstars, Lil Pop Shop and Weckerly's, are beginning a partnership starting Friday, April 16. 

There will be a variety of scoops and other ice cream treats from Weckerly's at Lil Pop Shop's space in West Philadelphia.

In Fishtown, Weckerly's shop will offer a selection of Lil Pop Shop's small-batch fruit and ice cream pops.
