This includes the Gingerbread, Double Chocolate Caramel Cookie and the White Chocolate & Cranberry flavors, which are each targeted towards a number of gifting occasions including between friends, for family and even as a host present.
The Popcorn Kitchen gifting range will be available to purchase later this fall in 100-gram packs priced at £4.99 to work well as small tokens of appreciation or add-ons.
