Handmade with Purpose

(and Sprinkles)

At Kate’s Poperella, every treat starts with kindness and ends in celebration. What began as a humble kitchen experiment in a small town outside Hershey, PA, has blossomed into a joyful business sharing handmade cake pops, cake balls, and flavored puppy chow with communities across North Dakota and beyond.

Founder Kate Ekren pours love into every batch

Kate’s Poperella officially popped into the world in 2011 when a few cake pops made with a best friend turned into a flood of requests—and an overflowing heart full of purpose. In 2016, Kate packed up her mixing bowls and moved west to Bismarck, ND, where she’s continued growing the Poperella dream into a commercial kitchen, seasonal pop-ups, and a loyal community of treat lovers.

What started with faith and chocolate has grown into something bigger: a go-to destination for gifts, parties, pick-me-ups, and unforgettable celebrations.

From the very first swirl of cake batter to the last adorable drizzle of chocolate. Her mission? To turn simple moments into sweet memories, one pop at a time. With faith as her foundation and fun at the forefront, she believes the best treats are the ones that make you smile before you take a bite.

From My Kitchen to Your Celebration

Hi, I’m Kate—and I just want to say how truly grateful I am that you’re here. What started as a simple idea in my little kitchen has grown into something I could’ve never imagined, all thanks to people like you who believe in handmade joy and thoughtful details.

Every order means the world to me. Whether it’s your baby’s first birthday, a random Tuesday pick-me-up, or a big graduation party, I want each treat to feel like a hug in dessert form.

If you’re ready to bring a little extra happiness to your next celebration (or craving), I’d love to create something special just for you.
