Now that we’ve gone through the exciting lineup of flavours, it’s time for the ultimate showdown between the sweet and salted popcorn flavours.
Some people like the gao gao sweetness of sweet popcorn, like eating dessert, while others prefer the savoury kick from the salted ones that makes them want to keep munching. Both have their own unique charms. Ultimately, it depends on your own taste buds, what you prefer, and the mood you’re in.
The Sweet and Salted Solution
Why limit yourself to just one flavour when you can have the best of both worlds? It’s time to uncover the secrets of finding that ultimate sweet and salted solution!

- Drizzle it Up: Another way to achieve that sweet and salted solution is by drizzling a sweet sauce over your salted popcorn or a salty sauce over your sweet popcorn. Think caramel sauce on top of salted popcorn or melted butter with a hint of sweetness on top of sweet popcorn.
- DIY Seasonings: If you’re feeling adventurous, why not try creating your own unique seasonings? Mix a pinch of sugar with some sea salt to create a sweet and salty blend. Or sprinkle some cinnamon sugar over your salted popcorn for a delightful twist. Let your creativity run wild!
