In keeping with the growing demand for remixed snacks, Wise Foods has released a cinnamon roll-flavored popcorn. Combining the sugary taste of a cinnamon roll with the light and airy texture of air-popped popcorn, the hybrid snack food gives consumers a guilt-free way to indulge in something sweet.
To create its cinnamon roll-flavored popcorn, Wise Foods teamed up with the popular dessert chain Cinnabon. The two companies then developed a one-of-a-kind popcorn flavor that tastes just like the world-famous Cinnabon Classic Cinnamon Rolls. Despite its sweet flavor, the air-popped snack is made from whole grains and free of added preservatives.
At just 75 calories per cup, the cinnamon roll-flavored popcorn is likely to appeal to health-conscious consumers looking for a lighter snack option.
