THE POPKORN STORY

Our founder, Dr. G., LOVES popcorn. She wanted to share her love of popcorn with everyone she knew. In 2007, she attended a Superbowl party and decided to bring homemade gourmet popcorn for the party-goers to enjoy. She received many inquiries about the flavors she had created. Her entrepreneurial passion prompted her to create PopKorn Kernels With A Twist, that same year. She decided to close after a year until she was confident that she had the resources to maintain a successful food business. Nearly a decade later, her same desire to have a gourmet popcorn company began to emerge. Therefore, in October 2016, she began producing her gourmet popcorn every week at the One World Kitchen Share, in Bloomington, Indiana. She then developed a website, and the PopKorn story resumed! She was encouraged by a few of her friends who expressed delight at the Popkorn Kernels With A Twist comeback!

In March of 2017, the PopKorn Shop opened on Kirkwood Avenue in Bloomington. PopKorn fans enjoyed coming into the shop, selecting from a variety of flavors, and chatting with Dr. G. and staff.

In the Fall of that same year, The PopKorn Shop moved into the College Mall and remained there until November 2019. Today, PopKorn fans can purchase their favorite gourmet treat online and at the downtown location (122 S College Ave, Bloomington, Indiana).
