Beginning the next chapter for our business

After some deep reflection on what is best for our family and our business, we’ve decided to no longer offer our consumer retail jars for sale online, in-person at markets, or in stores.

While this decision isn't taken lightly, It is the right one for us.

Don't worry, this isn't the end, it's a pivot, and it puts us in the best position to do some amazing new things that we'll be sharing soon.

We are beyond thankful for all of the retailers, distributors, markets, and communities that helped us launch, encouraged us, and sustained us over these last six years and we can't wait to share what the future looks like.

Stay tuned... We’ve still got more to do!

With Love and delicious pastry cremes

I had an incredible night at the Graduate Philadelphia Gala, celebrating adult learners who are proving it’s never too late to start something new. 🌟

Volunteering with this group and teaching entrepreneurship has been such a gift — their drive and creativity remind me a lot of what inspired us to start Poppa’s Custard in the first place: believing in your vision and putting in the work to make it real. 💪🏽🍮

Our custards aren't just for dessert. Grab a jar of your favorite flavor, put it into a bowl and gently whisk to smooth it out then garnish and dip, smear, or scoop to elevate your snacks.... yum!

CUSTARD?!?! FOR BREAKFAST?!?! .by.vanessa Took these Belgian Waffles to the next level with some berries, maple syrup, and our Chocolate Decadence custard. Put a jar of custard in a bowl and turn lightly till smooth. Put a dollop on top or glam up your plate with a piping bag and pastry tip like chef did.

All fancy. No Fuss.

Our Custards are as at home in a jar as they are in any gourmet dessert. We collaborated with the amazing Chef Vanessa on some product shots to really stretch the imagination on what our custard can do. Throw a jar or two into a bowl and gently turn till smooth, then let your imagination run wild.

We’ve been a little quiet on here — but not because things have slowed down. Quite the opposite.

We’ve been deep in the work:
🍮 Growing our food service relationships
🧊 Prepping for next week's trip to NYC
🛠️ Building the next phase of this business we believe in

And now, we’re bringing that energy back to you.

This week, we’ll be back at the Wrightstown Farmers Market for the first time this season — and we couldn’t be more excited. Same smooth, rich, clean-label custards. Same family-run hustle. Same love in every jar.

If you’ve missed us, come say hi!
