The Salted Caramel Popcorn is reported by the brand to have 40% less sugar compared to other varieties presently on the market.

Founder Cassandra Stavrou spoke on the new Propercorn flavors saying, "Popcorn has gained strong momentum since lockdown began, as more people stay at home and make more of their nights in. We’ve reimagined the much-loved cinema classics to create two flavors for those who are looking for a [healthier alternative](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whoa-momma) for their big night in. Packed full of Proper nostalgia, our night-in range balances health and taste, for the ultimate sweet treat that you don’t have to feel bad about.”
