Serve our Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie Pops warm with a fruited craft beer or cider. It’s almost like a grown-up PB&J. Neustadt Springs Raspberry Lager (LCBO 51461, 473 mL, $3.55) is a slightly tart, lower-alcohol sipper with bright raspberry fruit, bringing that classic jelly note to the pairing.

Our Chocolate-Dipped Cheesecake Lollipops turn a rich dessert into a whimsical bite. Try serving them with a glass of bubbly, sweet rosé or Moscato wine. Bartenura Lychee Moscato (LCBO 48403, 4 pk, $21.95) gives you two tropical infused pours from every can, with lychee notes that complement the creamy chocolate coating.

Tiramisu Sundae Pops turn refined Italian-inspired flavours into a very likeable, lickable handheld dessert. Serve them affogato style, with an iced espresso dosed with a creamy liqueur, such as Forty Creek Cream Liquor (LCBO 281378, $32.95). The pairing doubles down on decadence, with a touch of whisky, for a smooth summer treat.
