# Valentine's Day Popcorn Snacks Angie's Boomchickapop Created a Decadent Flavor for February 14th By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2020-02-12 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentines-day-popcorn References: [foodbusinessnews.net](https://www.foodbusinessnews.net/media/photos/4127-new-valentine-s-day-offerings) & [boomchickapop](https://boomchickapop.com/our-products/) [Angie's Boomchickapop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnabon-drizzled-kettle-corn) created a ready-to-eat Valentine's Day popcorn flavor made with whole grain popcorn. The Chocolate-Covered Raspberry Drizzled Kettle Corn is gluten-free and naturally sweetened with cane sugar, sharing just 170 calories and zero trans fats per serving. While the brand does offer a few [chocolate-covered kettle corn varieties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/belles-gourmet-popcorn) that are made with minimal ingredients, this Valentine's Day-inspired edition introduces a familiar product in novel colors and flavors. The Chocolate-Covered Raspberry Drizzled Kettle Corn by Angie's Boomchickapop is sold in a pink-colored package that's decorated with hearts and arrows. The holiday-themed popcorn snack has the potential to be enjoyed as an alternative to overindulgent [Valentine's Day treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartsweets-strawberry-hearts), which are commonly loaded with sugary ingredients.
