The new Mayday and Hyppo space in St. Pete.
St. Petersburg’s Central Avenue is home to one of several
Hyppo Gourmet Ice Pops stores, and the newly-renovated location will soon share its storefront with Mayday Ice Cream, becoming a one stop shop for sweet tooth satisfaction.
A grand reopening from Feb. 12 - 16 will mark the occasion and offer a 50% off discount on ice cream and popsicles, as well as limited-edition Hyppo x Mayday shirts.
Mayday, which focuses on handmade sprinkles and waffle cones, will also offer a limited-time flavor in celebration of the opening: ‘Andalusia’ is a Spanish olive oil ice cream infused with rosemary and topped with flaky sea salt.
“If you love dynamic flavor combinations and dedication to fresh, seasonal ingredients, our ice cream is going to blow your socks off,” said Mayday owner Stephen DiMare in a press release. “We like to take classic flavor combinations – sweet and savory – and bring them to the next level. We have tons of fun creating unique and craveable flavors!”
The combination popsicle and ice cream shop, located at 627 Central Ave., will be open Sunday through Thursday 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Known for eccentric flavors like pistachio rosewater and mango habanero, Hyppo first opened its St. Pete location in September of 2015, and now has locations throughout Florida, including Tampa, St. Augustine and Gainesville.
