— February 17, 2016 — Lifestyle
Sweet popcorn often comes drizzled with caramel, chocolate or dusted with spices like cinnamon, but Ten Acre offers a new flavor with 'Lucia Popperley’s Cappuccino Popcorn.'

This flavored popcorn snack gets its characteristics from a cappuccino flavoring mix, which consists of ingredients like sugar, rice flour, carob flour, salt and Fenugreek spice. The cappuccino-flavored popcorn is a snack that's free from many ingredients, including MSG, gluten and dairy, making it suitable for vegan consumers. This is reflective of a growing consumer desire for a pure list of product ingredients that still make interesting snack food flavors.

In addition to this sweet popcorn product, other unusual popcorn flavors from Ten Acre include Fennel & Lemon, as well as Strawberry and Cream.
