UK gourmet popcorn brand Popcorn Kitchen has added a new seasonal gingerbread-flavoured product to its portfolio.

The brand, which produces artisanal hand-popped popcorn products, has taken inspiration from the classic festive biscuit treat to develop its latest innovation.

The product offers warm, lightly spiced notes of ginger, cinnamon and cloves, tapping into the trend for seasonal nostalgia across the F&B industry.

Popcorn Kitchen’s latest NPD follows a range of flavoured innovations inspired by British sweet and savoury favourites across its range. Previous flavour innovations include Lemon Drizzle, Blueberry Muffin, Cherry Bakewell, Sweet & Chilli, and Cheddar Cheese.

A spokesperson for Popcorn Kitchen commented: “Having historically tapped into the public’s favourite great cake and ‘pud’ memories, we felt now was the moment was ripe to delve deep within the biscuit barrel”.

The seasonal product is launching at an RSP of £1.69 per 30g pack.
