Description

Tri-coloured flavoured popcorn can be made for any occasion. A huge hit!

Ingredients

  • 8 quarts Popped Popcorn, Divided Into Three
  • 3 cups Sugar
  • 1 cup Light Corn Syrup
  • 4-½ Tablespoons Butter
  • 1-½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¾ teaspoons Cream Of Tartar
  • 1 teaspoon Each Of Your Desired Flavouring (I Used Coconut, Maple And Almond)
  • Red, Yellow And Green Food Colouring
  • 3 teaspoons Baking Soda

Preparation

Note: Divide all the ingredients into thirds, one portion for each colour and flavouring combination. The instructions below are for each portion of ingredient, so you’ll repeat the process for each colour/flavour combination.

To a saucepan, add sugar, corn syrup, butter, salt, and cream of tartar. Stir to combine and continue to stir until the mixture reaches a boil. Cook to about 235ºF without stirring; don’t let the mixture start to change colour. Remove from heat and let the mixture stop boiling. Add your desired flavouring and colour. Add baking soda and stir. Quickly add to popcorn and mix gently to coat corn. Spread out onto a greased cookie sheet. Break into pieces when cooled.
