Tips

  • The popcorn will have a mix of the popcorn's own crunch and the crunch of the caramel on top.
  • The butter will make the flavor richer.
  • If you want, you can use a smaller quantity of butter, but don't skip it altogether.
  • Let the popcorn cool for half an hour, but the time varies depending on the weather.
  • You don't need to put the popcorn in the oven to make it crunchy.
