Popcorn is such an easy snake to make, but it’s an even easier snack to eat. Most of the time, you’ll only think of popcorn while watching a movie or when you’re feeling snacky. Luckily, there is a great place to find amazing popcorn in all sorts of flavors: the best Kansas popcorn shop ever.
Welcome to Velvet Creme Popcorn, a beautiful spot to get one of the best snack foods ever created.
This all began in the 1930s, when Howard and Dona White needed a job to help support their family. After designing a popcorn popper and purchasing the necessary ingredients, they set to work.
Popcorn, fudge, and popcorn balls were hot commodities, and over the years, until in 1954, Velvet Creme offered the first ever flavored popcorn in a decorated can. Now, we see decorated popcorn tins almost everywhere during the holiday season.
Inside, you'll find a comforting room stocked full of popcorn flavors and their signature colorful tins stacked up high for you to fill with flavors you love in various amounts and arrangements.
The counter area here looks just like a movie theater counter, with bright neon and a large popcorn popper. The sound of popcorn popping and fountain drinks takes you back to those days when movie nights were the best ever.
If you're not here for fresh popcorn, there's always the option of buying pre-sealed bags of their signature popcorn flavors, which range from regular butter to more unique options. Their chili-cheese and their cinnamon flavors are more popular than you'd expect. They do still have cheese and caramel, so don't worry about your favorites, they'll always be around for you.
