King of Pops

His building may not be ready, but his pushcart has arrived and, according to one of our sources (and his own site) Steven Carse was vending briskly under a green umbrella in the parking lot of Buddy’s at the corner of North and N. Highland Avenues during the Easter weekend.

According to our friend Seth Berman, the King had about ten flavors with him. Berman tasted the Tangerine Basil and Mexican chocolate. “Tangerine Basil was vegan and a traditional fruit pop, he writes, “Mexican chocolate was cream-based with delish chocolate and just enough cayenne for a nice kick.  Like a fudgesicle with cayenne. He’s gonna be there on weekends and maybe Thursdays too . . . apparently the storefront has had some issues, so it’s the pushcart and the Irwin Street Market for now. ”

Check on the site and twitter for a list of flavors that include: Blood Orange, Strawberry Rhubarb, Grapefruit Rose, Lemon Blackberry, Tangerine Basil, Strawberry Cheesecake, Mexican Chocolate, Bananas & Cinnamon, Berries & Cream, Coconut w/ Toasted Almond.
