As well as being able to enjoy the taste of a [refreshing fruit-flavored ice lolly](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/del-monte-freeze-pops), kids are able to eat away at the popsicle until they reach a playful dinosaur-shaped stick at the center. In addition to amusing kids, parents would love the fact that this sweet snack provides kids an educational lesson on dinosaurs frozen in ice. The pair of designers imagined that once wrapped, the [popsicle treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jel-sert-and-crayola) would be presented in packaging that looks like a chunk of an iceberg from the ice age. The product concept imagines three simple and kid-pleasing [popsicle flavors: orange, strawberry and grape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frollies). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.8/10 - Popularity: 99% | Activity: 98% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Edible Surprises:** Creating treats with hidden surprises inside, like a dinosaur-shaped stick, can provide a unique and exciting experience for consumers. - **Educational Snacking:** Combining fun and educational elements in snacks, such as freezing dinosaurs in ice, can engage kids while also providing learning opportunities. - **Creative Packaging:** Using imaginative packaging, like iceberg-shaped wrappers, can enhance the overall experience and appeal of a product. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** Food and beverage companies can explore opportunities to create innovative snacks with hidden surprises and educational components to attract young consumers. - **Education and Entertainment:** The education and entertainment industries can collaborate to develop products that combine fun and learning, like snacks that teach kids about dinosaurs. - **Packaging and Design:** Packaging and design companies can leverage creative ideas, such as iceberg-themed packaging, to provide unique and visually appealing solutions for food and beverage products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Popsicle-Flavored Toothpastes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-pop-toothpaste.md) - [Smoothie-Style Ice Pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pitaya-foods-smoothie-pops.md) - [Chewy Frozen Pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trolli-gummi-pops.md) - [Novelty Gelato Pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelato-pop.md) - [Frozen Candy-Inspired Ice Pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mega-push-pop-ice.md) - [Liquid-Filled Candy Ice Pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rowntrees-ice-lollies.md) - [Gel-Infused Lollipops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chupa-chups-frooze-pop.md) - [Jewelry-Inspired Ice Pop Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zoku-ring-pop-mold.md) - [Mythically Inspired Ice Pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unicorn-twist-pops.md)
