Does anyone have a popcorn maker? DD has asked for one for Xmas and I can't figure out what to buy to put in it?! Microwave popcorn or something else?

I would imagine just corn kernels, sometimes sold as popping corn. You can cook them in a saucepan with a lid too.

Good to have flavourings. Salt of course, I also like to do a tiny drizzle of maple syrup.

Corn kern is - you can get huge bags in Holland and barret.

Fab thank you - can you just get them from the supermarket?

Yes supermarkets should sell them too

Sainsbury’s sell it in the baking isle at my local. It’s in a clear bag I think next to dried fruit and various nuts.

I've got one. It's brilliant for the kids (both toddlers, they have it plain so it's a guilt free snack!)
I get a bag of kernels from Tesco. It lasts ages because only a tablespoon of kernels makes a big bowl of popcorn.

Was my ds's favourite present for a long time
now stored in the cellar and hasn't seen the light of say for a few months I must dig it out again in the New Year!

IsItCoffeeTimeYet · 20/12/2018 17:33

This is the one I get and I've got through approx a quarter of the bag in over a year!
