Popcorn Bar:

To start with, you’re going to need popcorn and lots of it! For this party I went with plain buttered, cheddar & caramel, jalapeño, and chocolate with caramel. Once you have your popcorn picked out, you can start to fill jars with toppings such as sweet mix-ins, salty additions, salts, melted butter, melted chocolate, and more!

The possibilities with what to serve in a Popcorn Bar are really endless! I asked our fans on Facebook what their favorite toppings for popcorn were and I read all sorts of answers I had never heard of before, tabasco sauce, ketchup (yes, ketchup!), melted cheddar and so much more.

Another of my favorite sweet treat ideas using popcorn is my grandma’s popcorn cake. This is always a favorite at our place during the holiday season. She uses gumdrops in hers but jelly beans are just as delicious. I’ve heard of some people using M&M’s in their popcorn cakes and I guess the trick to not having the chocolate melt on you is to freeze the M&M’s first. If you try it, let us know how it turns out for you!
