Sensational Sweets
Traditional Popcorn • A Touch Of Chocolate • Kosher
Sensational Sweets is different from the other companies in this group in that it is not a popcorn specialist. The company makes confections from chocolate bark to fudge, in small, hand-made batches, on the family farm in the Susquehanna Valley of Central Pennsylvania. The line includes Drizzled Popcorn—one might call it “flecked” with chocolate rather than drizzled when to compared to the heavier “drizzling” of Dale & Thomas and Hampton popcorns. It’s more of a classic popcorn that offers a touch of chocolate, and perfect for people who like a sweet-and-salty snack profile. It’s like eating popcorn with a chaser of chocolate morsels.
The popcorn is fluffier and less crunchy than the other corns, for a melt-in-your-mouth effect. Sensational Sweets calls its chocolate “our own dark milk chocolate blend”—a hard-to-interpret phrase when you read it, but it approximates a 50 to 55 percent semisweet cacao.
