Product Information:
Cinnamon Sugar is our newest flavor that tastes like your mom’s cinnamon toast! We are proud to have this fantastic product in our line up and we are sure you will love the sweet taste.
I received a bag of this popcorn in my December Goodies Box.
Tea Suggestion:
Because this popcorn already has a delicious sweet and cinnamon-y taste, I decided to go with a pure tea (rather than a flavored tea!), so I chose this delicious Royal Golden Safari Black Tea from Butiki Teas. The natural spice notes of the tea were accentuated by the cinnamon sugar coated popcorn. A really delightful tea time!
What I Think:
After trying some other gourmet flavored popcorn, Cinnamon Sugar popcorn just seemed kind of … ho-hum. Boring. Or so I thought until I tried it! This is really yummy! It reminds me a lot of kettle corn, but with a delicious cinnamon-y twist.
The popcorn has a fluffy yet crispy texture, and I didn’t find the hulls to be too bothersome. I was a little disappointed in the state of the popcorn … there were more small pieces of popcorn rather than full-sized, popped kernels … as if the package had been smashed or something. I got some full-sized kernels, but there were considerably more “crumbs” than anything to this pouch. The “crumbs” are still tasty, of course, but it’s easier to eat the full-sized kernels than the crumbs so it was a little less than ideal to snack on because the majority of my package was crumbs.
I did find a few un-popped kernels, as well as a few half-popped kernels. I like half-popped kernels, so I’m not going to complain about that, but, when the package is mostly crumbs, and I’m left needing to pour the crumbs in my hand to eat them, and I bite down on an un-popped kernel in the handful … that’s a little unpleasant.
My Final Thoughts:
Overall, I enjoyed this snack, it was tasty … I just wish that there were more big, fluffy kernels and fewer kernel bits.
