This new "Freeze and Eat Treat" combines popcorn kernels that are coated in a caramel and ice cream birthday cake flavor with sprinkles for a decadent and refreshing new take on a beloved snack. Those who are quick to support the crowdfunding campaign for Polar Popcorn with a pledge of $100 or more will receive bags of the new chilled snack in a fun mystery flavor. Other tiers give supporters the chance to receive other creations from Klein, including bottles of Sandy Candy, a type of edible sand art. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 68% | Activity: 91% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Chilled Treats:** Opportunity to create new frozen and refreshing foods with unique flavor combinations. - **Crossover Snacks:** Opportunity to create new snack concepts that combine elements of various dessert treats. - **Crowdfunding Launches:** Opportunity to use crowdfunding platforms for product launches and promotion. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** Industry can explore new frozen snack concepts with unique and cross over flavor profiles to attract customers. - **Crowdfunding Platforms:** Industry can leverage the opportunities provided by companies that connect investors and entrepreneurs. - **E-commerce Retail:** Industry can use internet shopping and direct shipping models to reach customers directly and increase access to new products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gourmet Ice Cream Popcorn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourmet-popcorn-ice-cream-snacks.md) - [Birthday Cake-Flavored Popcorns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/opopop.md) - [Festive Candied Popcorn Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cookie-pop-and-candy-pop.md) - [Festive Cake-Flavored Popcorns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartfood-chocolate-cake-pop-popcorn.md) - [Microwavable Popcorn Cobs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poppin-cobs.md) - [Candy-Packed Popcorn Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prospector-popcorn-superstar-crunch.md) - [Pre-Seasoned Holiday Popcorn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flavor-wrapped-popcorn.md) - [Party Mix Popcorn Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/party-mix-popcorn.md) - [Crunchy Lollipop-Flavored Popcorns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chupa-chups-popcorn.md)
