Cassie's Gourmet Popcorn & Giveaway

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

Do you like to munch on popcorn? How about sea salt caramel with chocolate popcorn or Butterfinger popcorn? Don't they sound delicious?? WELL, THEY ARE!!!

And where can you get these delicious and unique flavors of popcorn and over 58 other popcorn creations?? Cassie's Gourmet Popcorn!!

They offer over 60 distinctive popcorn creations ranging from infused Jelly Belly® Cherry to Beer Cheddar to White Truffle to Sea Salt Caramel with Dark Chocolate Drizzle. There is something sure to please every palate! Each batch of popcorn is lovingly created by hand, using only ingredients that you would recognize. If Oreo ® is in the name, then Oreo’s® are in the popcorn!

I received three different flavors of popcorn in a cute Valentine's Day themed tin: White Cheddar, Chocolate Drizzed Sea Salt Caramel, and Butterfinger

If you are a fan of cheesy snacks (like I am!), then you should definitely try the White Cheddar popcorn. People who enjoy the flavor of cheddar typically choose it for its sharpness, which is achieved by aging the cheese. Cheese makers would tell you that, to accomplish the smoky and delicious flavor of white cheddar, many factors must be balanced properly. Combine that savory flavor with fresh popcorn and what's the result? A truly tasty gourmet popcorn that's a big hit!

If you LOVE Butterfingers®, then I HIGHLY recommend this flavor! They're a delicious combination of chocolate and peanut butter all wrapped up into one of the world's most popular snacks. Well, that's exactly what the Butterfinger® popcorn tastes like, because they use real Butterfingers® pieces to give this popcorn its chocolatey-sweet flavor. Check out how amazing these two favorites are together: Butterfingers® and popcorn, yum!

However, my favorite from Cassie's Gourmet Popcorn has got to be the Chocolate Drizzled Sea Salt Caramel popcorn!! Chocolate and caramel lovers: get ready to tantalize your taste buds! Caramel corn and chocolate popcorn collide to create a flavor extravaganza with this Chocolate Drizzled Sea Salt Caramel popcorn. Sea salt, caramel and crunchy popcorn drizzled with chocolate create the perfect combination of sweet and savory. You'll delight in the sweetness with just a hint of saltiness; you surely won't be able to stop at just one handful. This sweet and salty concoction is sure to please even the most discriminating snacker.

It is the perfect mix of sweet, chocolate and salty - I could eat this all night long...and I might just have done that! :)

Buy It: You can purchase all these flavors and MORE from the Cassie's Gourmet Popcorn website.

Win It: Cassie's Gourmet Popcorn is generously offering (1) 2 Gallon Popcorn Tin with three popcorn flavors of choice to a lucky winner!
