  1. I received a copy of this recipe from a friend, and it is delicious! It is a little time consuming, but so worth it. Easy to make, and the finished product is great. I wrapped it up in tins and gave it out as a holiday gift, and everyone asked if they could have a refill! Thanks for sharing.
     
  2. I used this for my an "appetizer" at my daughter's wedding and everyone LOVED it. Thanks
     
  3. It is good, it is crunchy and it has the right amount of sweet and salty.
     
  4. I couldn't find my caramel corn recipe when I decided that's what I wanted to make for the little Trick or Treaters that I knew. So, I found this one that seemed the closest to my recipe. And, the flavour is perfect!! But, something went wrong with the method - after 40 minutes in the oven, the coating went all granular. I took it out of the oven but the caramel topping had already formed a sugary crunchy coating instead of the smooth crisp coating.
     
  5. Excellent! A simple recipe that yields great results. You'll be sorely tempted when stirring the popcorn during the baking hour to sample the wares. Just leave some for the rest of the folks. I was unsure about the caramel, never having made any before. But the results were very satisfying, particularly after adding the baking soda, I knew it was going to be good. (Subsequently confirmed by the oven tasting - see above.) The only thing I didn't do was spray the pan which led to some effort to pry the popcorn from it. I understand putting foil down and spraying the foil will help with this problem. Will try it next time. Highly Recommended.
