In response to the growing demand for gluten-free snack options, Popcorn Shed is rolling out a new lineup of dessert-inspired gluten-free popcorn snacks.
Made in the U.K. from natural ingredients, Popcorn Shed's newest range consists of gluten-free popcorn in five flavors inspired by classic desserts and bakery treats. The range includes a buttery Classic Caramel popcorn, a Shortbread popcorn featuring biscuit crumbs, a spiced Cinnamon Roll popcorn, a cream cheese-flavored Carrot Cake popcorn, and a Cookies & Cream popcorn that pairs white chocolate with cookie crumb pieces. Each of the new dessert-inspired gluten-free popcorn snacks comes in a single-serve packet that contains less than 120 calories per serving. And like the brand's other snacks, the dessert-inspired popcorns are completely gluten-free.
Popcorn Shed's latest flavors are available now online and from various retailers in the U.K.
