Print off this cute popcorn valentine, pair it with some yummy Valentine Popcorn and you have a perfect Valentine’s Day gift!
I love Valentine’s Day, and I also love offering ideas to the Capturing Joy community to make it easy for you to have unique valentines for your children.
The kids may enjoy the commercialized stuff, but if we can show them that there are OTHER OPTIONS like a popcorn valentine, then MAYBE they will catch the vision. This can be a “no sugar valentine” with attaching a smaller bag of Skinny Pop or Boom Chicka Pop, stuffing some into a sandwich baggie.
You can also make our special party popcorn concoction that is as easy as 1…2…3… (only 3 ingredients!)
How to Make Valentine Popcorn
Making this party popcorn is one of my all time favorite treats. I often make it for parties, and match the colorful candied M&M’s to the theme color. For Valentine’s Day, I grab some holiday M&M’s, throw it into the mix, and BAM! festive popcorn!
I made a little video to show exactly how to make the party popcorn, but in simple text, all you need is:
- Popcorn
- White Chocolate
- M&M’s
- Sprinkles (optional)
Watch this short video to see how I make the popcorn Valentine:
You can use any type of popcorn, but I like the Skinny Pop because there are never any unpoped kernels. Sometimes we’ll use microwave popcorn and that extra salt and butter doesn’t hurt the flavor situation.
