If I had to choose it would be sweet. Fortunately I no longer have to make this decision as the ingenious people from Toasted have made the ultimate popcorn; sweet and salt. If ever there was a day to rival the invention of sliced bread it has to be this. Never again do we need to decide and end up wishing we’d had the other. This popcorn deserved to be treated to something a little special.
You will need:
300g milk chocolate (I used Milka with Daim)
A few large handfuls of popcorn (salted and sweet ideally)
100g white chocolate
Start by breaking up the milk chocolate and melting it in a large bowl set over a pan of water. I always have the pan on the lowest heat possible so as not to overheat the chocolate. When the chocolate has melted, mix the popcorn into the chocolate until it is evenly coated. Press this into a greased dish and allow to set.
When it is set, chop the block up into bars and put onto some greaseproof paper. Melt the white chocolate in the same way as the milk chocolate and use to decorate the top of the popcorn bars. Not only does it look nice it also helps to stick any rogue bits of popcorn to the bar.
Yeah.. it’s better even not to start with popcorn.. 🙂 and if it’s the way you made it, even worse.. too addictive :))))
Once I start, I seriously can’t stop – especially when it’s salty and sweet!
My kids would love these popcorn, I feel a little bit scared to give it to them…very addictive??? I save this recipes for the festivities…like a big treat. Welcome back online Caroline.

SERIOUSLY lush Caroline! Although I am a savoury person, a cheese and biscuits lover etc I DO prefer SWEET popcorn, and so this recipe would suit me down to the ground!
I’m seriously wondering if I could just make these for tea tonight..
Ooh, those look delicious. Sweet and salty is such an addictive combination!
Stop it! This looks so damn good. You’re going to ruin my gym session yesterday 😛 I love making caramel and chocolate popcorn. It’s the best food for watching movies at home.
Wow, this is sooo good!! Very tempted to try it!
Unique flavor, salty and sweet version of popcorns looks good. Great for munching when watching a movie.
I hope those popcorn bars have proved to be therapeutic for you. They’re good for you really, you know…
Sweet and Salted popcorn, awesome!
Yeah, I’m the same way with popcorn…just love the stuff. I made some white chocolate popcorn for my book club and I made my friends take some home b/c I knew I would eat every bit that was left! Your bars look wonderful!!!!
This looks so good that even I would love some right now!
Salt and chocolate are great together – I love a chocolate by Lindt called A Touch of Sea Salt. HOpe you are having a good week.
popcorn bars?? that is a genius idea! i’m in love!
wow..i never thought of a popcorn bars and choc covered, yum!
incredible! i need to make my body weight of this
You really need to put and “addictive” warning on this! SO good!
Like you, I could not stop at just one piece of this. Your choice of milk chocolate with Daim pieces makes it even more dangerous.
This sounds soooo good. Love it. Bookmarking for cinema nights with the kids x
