When my daughter got married, several years ago (I’m feeling old realizing that was almost 8 years ago!), she and her “soon-to-be” husband, wanted a popcorn bar! I loved the idea because it was a fun and inexpensive way to offer refreshments to their wedding guests, and it fit their personalities! I have an entire post about their wedding. I loved their wedding reception. (I was exhausted when it was over, but it was so much fun to help plan and do!)

We created several different options for the guests. From traditional salty-buttery movie popcorn to a scrumptious Peanut Butter Chocolate Popcorn.

We also created a delightful sweet and salty Cookies and Cream Popcorn. It features sweet white chocolate and crushed Oreo cookies. The blend with the buttery salty popcorn was outstanding! A favorite of the guests. We know because we ran out!

For this Valentine’s version, I’ve added some Valentine’s M&M’s and Valentine Sprinkles! It’s delicious and Fun! Best of all, it’s super simple and comes together quickly for a last minute treat for your loves!

This requires just a few basic ingredients. You can make it with or without the added touches of Valentines. The ingredients listed below include the treats I used to dress it up for your “loves”.

Adding Touches of Valentines to Popcorn

While the chocolate is still melted, before it sets up, add 1 cup of Valentine’s M&M’s. I love the tiny little multicolored heart sprinkles. I love how festive this treat is!

You can even toss in some Valentines Gummies, or other candies. Go wild! Get creative you sexy cupid you!

Pour Popcorn out on a sheet of Wax, or Parchment Paper. Drizzle remaining White chocolate over the top of the popcorn. Add Sprinkles. Let the popcorn set until the chocolate becomes firm.

Carefully break popcorn into bite size pieces and place in serving bowl, or fill cello bags tied with Valentines ribbon to give as gifts. (Let’s all be honest…you’re standing there eating it already. We’re just gonna pray there’s any left for gift bags. Lol)
