There’s a lot to explore at the World Fresh Market, a locally owned Overland Park grocer filled with products from across the globe. It’s worth visiting just to cruise the aisles brimming with imported goods, many of which are not available anywhere else in KC, like Tao Qi’s social media sensation, peach ice cream pops.

The peach pops can be found in the frozen section and are packaged in light pink boxes labeled in Chinese. There are other Tao Qi flavors, such as mango or milk ice cream with peach filling, but the peach is the center of the social media storm. 

One bite into the peach-shaped ice cream bar’s thin outer layer and you’re met with a creamy center that tastes just like its namesake fruit—but without the juicy mess. It’s sweet and feels like eating frozen yogurt.

On a recent visit to World Fresh Market, the peach flavor was fully stocked, so don’t worry about them selling out. If you want another viral treat, you can get Dubai chocolate-covered strawberries or a do-it-yourself kit to save for later.
