Inspriation: Popcorn Bar!

I'm a big fan of make-it-your-own bars, you know come up with a theme and put out different options and let your guests pick and choose what they like.  Candy bars have become really popular at weddings, bridal showers, baby showers, etc. I had a candy bar at my wedding too, and it was a HUGE hit...no leftovers except for a few gummies stuck in the grass the next morning that my brother's dog thoroughly enjoyed; but I am totally loving this idea for a POPCORN bar and I think it would be a HUGE hit.

There are so many options you could do for this popcorn bar here are just a few ideas to get you thinking!

Ingredients:

Popcorn - you can buy bagged butter popcorn at the grocery store or you can pop your own plain popcorn using a popcorn maker like this one (from Target for $19.99)

Sweet toppings:

M&Ms
Raisins
Craisins (or any other type of dried fruit you may like)
Reese's pieces
Chocolate chips
Peanut butter chips
White chocolate chips
Candied nuts

Salty Toppings:

Peanuts
Almonds
Cashews
Old Bay
Ranch dressing Seasoning
Salt
Cheddar cheese powder
Butter powder (like Molly McButter found in the spices aisle in the grocery store)

Another idea is to have different flavors of popcorn already there and your guests can choose their favorite kind....or they could mix and match!
