"WOULD NOT USE ANYTHING ELSE! This Mushroom popcorn has AMAZING flavor and the big size of the popped kernel helps hold various powders for our flavored kettle corn!"

Extra Large Size

While different crops across the country yield different kernel sizes, these Missouri grown, extra large kernels are known for their consistent and reliable crop yields. With an expansion rate of 29-31 cc, this size offers more surface area for coatings and glazes to stick to.

Yellow Mushroom Popcorn

Mushroom-style popcorn is denser and more compact than butterfly-style popcorn. Since mushroom popcorn does not include any breakable "wings" like butterfly popcorn, it holds up well against stirring and coating processes.

Great for Toppings

Thanks to the larger surface area, this mushroom-style popcorn is the popcorn of choice for caramel corn and kettle corn. It can even be used to add gourmet glazes for decadent, sweet popcorn treats! Pop kernels at 400 degrees to form the full, round shape.

Convenient Supply

Compared to large bulk bags of popcorn kernels, these popcorn kernels are packaged in a 50 lb. bag that's less bulky, easy to handle, and easy to store.

Easy To Use

Simply follow the instructions on your countertop or freestanding popcorn machine to properly prepare. For every 1 cup of unpopped kernels, it is recommended to use 4-6 tbsp. of oil.

Frequently Asked Questions From Customers

How should I store and pop my Carnival King popcorn kernels?

Store the kernels in areas at 50 degrees Fahrenheit, with 40-60% humidity. The popping temperature for the kernels should be at least 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

My mushroom popcorn resembles the shape of butterfly popcorn, what am I doing wrong?

Mushroom popcorn requires a high temperature of at least 400 degrees Fahrenheit in order to produce enough steam to open the kernels into their round shape. Popping mushroom popcorn at too low of a temperature or in the microwave will likely result in butterfly-shaped kernels. For best results, use the hot air of dry flow-through machines to achieve the perfect mushroom kernel. Although hot oil can also be used when making mushroom popcorn, a lower percentage of round kernels will result.

What’s the difference between mushroom popcorn and butterfly popcorn?

The primary difference between mushroom and butterfly popcorn is the shape of the kernel. Mushroom kernels are more round and compact which provides a larger surface area for coatings to stick to, making it perfect for gourmet confections such as kettle and caramel corn. Butterfly popcorn has a more irregular shape with a number of protruding wings that allow butter and salt to be trapped underneath, making it great for movie theatres and concession stands.

The quality of this product is skeptical. The date says its fresh. When popped it is gummy and they after if sits awhile it changed to normal texture when eaten. However when coated it goes back to being gummy. I ended up throwing out the whole bag.

About 65% mushroom kernels and 35% butterfly kernels. I expected more mushroom kernels to pop. Learning that butterfly kernels are included. Guess it'll do for now.

Love! Love! Love! I have read reviews that say there are butterfly kernels in the mix but that is a misunderstanding on the poppers knowledge of popcorn. Mushroom popcorn will butterfly if popped under 180 degrees. You must have a VERY hot popping source. This is meant for commercial machines like the cretors popcorn machines. I hope you enjoy my video!!!

In store purchased. 40oz of kernels normally needed for one full batch popcorn. This brand requires 58oz to get the full batch. Very dirty (chaff). Good flavor. I will try Reist next.

This popcorn was a great buy. My family does a movie night every Friday so popcorn is always needed. The quantity is mind blowing and will definitely last my family a long while. It also stores well if you want to keep it for a later date.

This popcorn was not good. I think it was old or something because it did not pop evenly and was overly crunchy/chewy when eaten. I would not recommend!
