Trader Joe's is no stranger to seasonal treats, and the new Peppermint Bark Popcorn does not disappoint.
According to Trader Joe's the new Peppermint Bark Popcorn came about after the brand considered its love of peppermint bark and thought about "what it would be like to transform the rich, creamy, chocolate-mint deliciousness into a coating...for a light, airy, crunchy popcorn." And that is exactly what the brand did. The result is crunchy kernels of popcorn coated in three different layers of chocolate. The layers include salted caramel, dark chocolate, and finally white chocolate with bits of peppermint. The end result is a sweet and crunchy snack that tastes like bite-sized mouthfuls of Christmas.
