Poppets, a vintage cinema snack from the 1920s, has officially debuted a new product called the 'Chocolate Toffee Popcorn.' The snack item is a combination of light popcorn coated in toffee and milk chocolate, and it comes packaged in a stunning purple pop-open bag with playful branding on the front. Each bag contains 100g of popcorn and is priced at £1.
"Against the background of the cost-of-living crisis, we were keen to offer new Poppets Chocolate Toffee Popcorn at an affordable price point and provide consumers across a wide audience profile with the perfect little luxury," said Russell Tanner, marketing director at Valeo Snackfoods.
'Chocolate Toffee Popcorn' will be sold at high street discounters, convenience stores, and wholesalers.
