Notes

Remove the popcorn kernels. It’s a good idea to remove the unpopped kernels, especially if you give the popcorn as a gift!

Remember the baking soda. Don’t forget to add the baking soda. It is easy to miss this step. Baking soda will help by breaking up the sugar molecules.

Keep the toffee popcorn fresh. Store your popcorn in an airtight container or ziplock bag to keep it fresh. Press out as much air as you can. The better the seal, the longer it will stay fresh. You should be able to store it at room temperature for up to 2-3 weeks.

Is your caramel popcorn grainy? Grainy or crystalized caramel is the sandy appearance that happens when the sugar crystals in the caramel stick together. This can occur when the melted sugar splatters up on the colder sides of the pan. To prevent this, gently fold the mixture and avoid splashing the caramel to help the sugar melt uniformly. Add more water to the mix if sugars splash up on the pan. Heat again, and the water will help the sugar crystals to dissolve again.
