I LOVE POPCORN!
I've never been much of a microwave popcorn eater because growing up, my mom always made it on the stove in a pan that she had to continually shake back and forth. So, it's a tradition or way of life that I've kept up....get the biggest pan you have {heavy!}, fill it wil a little oil {sizzle and splatter!}, add the popcorn {even heavier and now hot!}and pop {shake the heavy pan til your arm falls off!}. As you can see it's one issue after another but always worth the fresh taste of warm popcorn.
Then, this past Christmas,Amy gave me a gift that has changed my life!
The Whirley Popcorn Popper!
Popping warm fresh popcorn now only takes me two minutes and all I have to do is add the ingredients and turn the little crank {which I can do with one finger - it's so light!}. Thank you Amy!!
I make popcorn for almost every event that I have and bring it to any casual get together with friends. Why? Well, besides the yummy taste it is an inexpensive and healthy snack....and it's becoming oh-so-trendy.
You've heard of cupcake bars and candy bars at weddings, gatherings or corporate events. Now, you will start to see popcorn bars. Like I mentioned, it's inexpensive which is the number one reason for it's rising popularity. The second is because the possibilites are endless! Salt as a topping is just the beginning.....dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, cheddar cheese, caramel, chili powder, chipotle, cinammon...and you can add anything you want to it: fruit, nuts, chocolate.
I can't wait to try it all!
Here are some ideas on how to present your popcorn bar at your next event -
big or small!

Those of you who like the microwave popcorn {and let me say, I'm not against it, it's just not my first choice} I have a couple vendors that make great gourmet ready-made popcorn. If you need it for an event, it's a perfect give-away gift or if you just want to spice up your taste buds, these are my go-to's.
