Have Fun With A Popcorn Bar

To add the perfect touch to a movie night, or any other casual get together like a Super Bowl Party or Oscar viewing, I love the idea of setting up a popcorn bar! This idea is hot in Hollywood and easy to do at home by simply filling large, preferably clear, glass or plastic containers with several varieties of flavored popcorns. Plan to offer an assortment that includes plain, savory and sweet flavors. Scoops for serving, labels on the serving pieces, along with red and white striped paper popcorn bags from your local dollar store will add the finishing touches to your buffet!

(If a trip to the dollar store isn’t in your immediate future, here’s an online resource for Popcorn Bags)

Selecting Your Popcorn

Plan to pick up the popcorn at your local grocery store, or try some of these recipes:

And if you’re just a popcorn lover at heart, plan to upgrade your serving ware with a personalized ceramic bowl (Personalized Ceramic Popcorn Bowl, $36.95, pictured) or a brightly striped tin container with a fabulous vintage feel! (Popcorn Square Vase Bucket, $40)
