Popcorn Kitchen's Gourmet Popping Kernels Inspire Creativity in the Kitchen

— July 18, 2024 — Lifestyle
Popcorn Kitchen, renowned for its boldly flavored snacks, launched the deceptively simple Gourmet Popping Kernels to inspire snackers to unleash their creativity and come up with inventive flavor combinations of their own.

"If you think how Popcorn Kitchen has thoughtfully extended its reach in recent times from extravagant flavored popcorn bags and involving gifting offers through to meticulously curated ‘home popping kits,’ championing every imaginable flavor from sweet-themed Brussels sprouts and mini footballs through to Chocolate eggs, Rocky Road and Peanut Butter Buttons, it made perfect sense that its next incarnation would be a stripped-back pack of ‘premium tier’ corn kernels that enabled more avant-garde popcorn enthusiasts to create their own bold flavor marriages from scratch," explained Popcorn Kitchen's Louise Monk.
