ProperCorn Launch Crunch Corn: But is it as good?

Frost are a huge fan of Propercorn. We always pick some up at London Fashion Week to keep us going. They make snacking much healthier. They have launched Crunch Corn and we think they are fab. A little corny, a little nutty and a lot yummy. 

It’s crunch time

Venturing outside of traditional popcorn for the very first time, PROPERCORN is proud to reveal CRUNCH CORN: the half-popped sibling of its signature snack.

Tumbled in all-natural seasoning, Crunch Corn’s unique texture offers a perfect alternative to nuts, with all the moreish nostalgia of popcorn. As with PROPERCORN’s award-winning popcorn collection, all Crunch Corn flavours are gluten-free, suitable for vegans and seasoned using the best-quality, natural ingredients.

Cassandra Stavrou, co-founder of PROPERCORN explained: “After 5 years of striving for popped perfection, we find ourselves celebrating the power of the crunch. It’s not popcorn and it’s certainly not a bag of un-popped kernels; it’s a totally unique and satisfying, nut-like crunch. We wanted to create a snack which packed as much of a punch in texture, as it did in taste, and we can’t wait to share our discovery with everyone.”

With a crunch for every occasion, PROPERCORN have created four unique recipes, perfect at parties, in the pub or simply as an afternoon pick me up:

Rock Salt

Keeping it classic and championing the crunch, this flavour is simply sprinkled with pink himalayan rock salt. With more than 80 minerals, this salt variation from Pakistan, adds a little more sweetness and depth.

Salt & Pepper

Adding a bit of bite, this flavour is tossed with a mix of sea salt and cracked black pepper. The fresh pepper has less of a kick than chilli, leaving behind a warming level of spice.

Salt & Vinegar

A new type of crunch but a familiar flavour, this recipe combines a dash of sweet and fruity cider vinegar, with sprinkling of sea salt.

Sweet & Smoky Chilli

Combining a blend of chillies with a hint of smoked salt, this flavour builds to a subtle, sweet heat and surprises with a dash of lime.

 

All Crunch Corn flavours are available to buy in handy single serve bags for on-the-go grazing or in larger bags for sharing. They can be found in Tesco stores nationwide and tesco.com with RRP £0.89 & £1.99.

 

 

PROPERCORN – POPCORN DONE PROPERLY

Posted on by

I often get frustrated by bad popcorn. At the cinema it’s poor quality and tasteless, in the shops it’s artificial. Usually one starts to feel ill after the first few mouthfuls.

Propercorn, the new British gourmet popcorn, is simply great popcorn. It’s full of flavour and extremely tasty. As I ate it I kept asking myself why is all popcorn not like this. Propercorn is a very appropriate name.

It’s simple and healthy as well and that comes across as you eat it. The version I’m sampling ‘Sweet and Salty’ has just four authentic ingredients, although the exact recipe remains a closely guarded secret. A whole pack is just 128 calories and its suitable for vegetarians. This is definitely worth trying.
