Take plain popcorn to the next level with a few sweet and spooky add ins, fitting for Halloween.
This quick and addictive popcorn mix takes just moments to make, with dark chocolate chips, salty pumpkin seeds and ghostly mini marshmallows.
The marshmallows are super cute and take seconds to decorate using an edible food pen.

I also put together a festive sprinkle mix made with edible silver glitter, black nonpareils, white jimmies, pink sugar pearls and white ghost confetti. Perfect for topping the popcorn mix and adding a necessary touch of posh because more is more right?!

The sweet and spooky popcorn is a healthy alternative to the sugary processed Halloween treats we’re used to this time of year. Made with organic, all natural dairy free ingredients, it’s a treat you can feel good about serving guests and your littles.
Just be sure to make plenty because it’s likely to disappear quicker than you can say the words B O O!
Serve up your popcorn in small black and white baking cups for an upcoming Halloween party, or store in individual baggies for little ones to enjoy!
More on the way soon!
