these popcorn ball kits are fun and so easy!
This is a fun one. And super easy too!
I was standing on line at Michaels, as I do, when a bin of popcorn ball kits caught my eye. And I thought: 1) HOW cute is that idea, and 2) I could totally make these myself.
So I did.
And so can you!
Once you have all of your materials assembled these come together quickly, and make a fun, super-different gift to give.
These are also easily customized, so think Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day and Easter too!
Click for the printable instructions to include with your kits, and be sure to keep a few for yourself!
For each kit you will need:
12″ disposable pastry bag
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar wrapped in a piece of plastic wrap
1/3 cup popcorn kernels
1/4 cup sprinkles (or 4 tablespoons assorted)
1 cup mini marshmallows
small bags for the sprinkles (I used these, left over from this project)
ribbon
instructions
For easy filling, place the pastry bag into a drinking glass, cuffing the top around the rim of the glass. Fill with the popcorn kernels, followed by the brown sugar. Top with the sprinkles and finish with the marshmallows. Punch a hole in the instructions, thread the ribbon through and tie up the bag.

Love the popcorn ball kits. Thinking I might be giving this out for Halloween!

hi it is 2020 ALMOST 2021 and I am STILL using this recipe!
Yay! I’m so glad! 🙂
Popcorn tends to give me a tummy ache. But reading this very cute idea immediately made me think of doing the same thing for fancy Rice Krispies Treats. With only a couple of changes, it will work. I’m planning on handing them out this year. Thank you.
That is a great idea! Let me know how they turn out – love it! 🙂
