Does anyone flavor their popcorn? About This Page:

There's a shop in Fernadina Beach, Fl(near Amelia Island) that made Chocolate Covered Popcorn, and my was it delicious. I once made a batch using a hot popper for the popcorn with no oil or butter and melted in one bowl a package of Milk Chocolate Melting Bits and in another bowl White Chocolate Melting Bits(Wilton's at the Craft Store in the candy making section) and stirred in the popcorn and let it dry on cookie sheets covered with wax paper. It came out just as well as the shops!

I also love flavoring my popcorn with the Popcorn Seasons White Cheddar Flavor or Nacho Cheese Flavors.

Do you have a sweetened powdered juice/soft drink mix like Kool Aid?? That might work. Also NesQuik makes a strawberry mix for milk that we used to put on ice cream all the time. That might work also if it's available in the UK.

This might be totally off the wall (and could be totally yucky!) but what about putting some "plain" popcorn into a poly bag, then adding a spoonful of Strawberry flavour Nesquick milkshake mix and shaking like crazy?

I've never tried it, so don't know how it might turn out!!!!! But it's a fine powder with a strawberry flavour that just might do the trick!

Great minds think alike!!!! Glad someone else was thinking the same way as me!!!!

We make our popcorn in one of those whirly pop type things on the stove. And yes, we do add flavorings. Garlic salt + garlic powder is a favorite, as is Tabasco sauce.

They now have the Kraft M&C powder in a canister for popcorn- I think it was at Publix... but not with the popcorn.

I put Cavender's Greek Seasoning on mine ;-)

That might be worth trying... I'll have to add some to the Tesco order!

Here in Hawaii -- Hurricane popcorn is very popular -- micro or stovetop popcorn and you add furikake (seasoned nori), mochi crunch (japanese rice cracker) and butter. You could cut the calories and omit the butter.
Yummy!
