Popped fresh in the kettle, one batch at a time, at fairs and festivals across Southwest Florida.

Here's where the kettle is going next. Weather moves things around sometimes, so it's worth a look the morning of.

The popcorn

Six ways out of one kettle

Everything is popped on site in a cast-iron kettle with sugar, oil and salt going in together. That's what makes it kettle corn instead of popcorn with sugar on it.

  • Original Sweet & Salty

    The one people come back for. Sugar caramelizes right in the kettle, salt goes on hot.

  • Caramel

    Cooked darker and slower, then broken into clusters.

  • White Cheddar

    Sharp and savory, for the people who don't want sweet.

  • Cinnamon

    Warm and dusty with it. Sells out first in December.

  • Jalapeño Cheddar

    Real heat, not a suggestion of it.

  • Key Lime

    A Florida experiment that stuck around.

Bagged in three sizes at the tent. Cash and card both work.
