Default Sweet Popcorn

I can get all my usual English sweets and chocolate in various places in Brisbane but have yet to find somewhere that sells sweet popcorn. Not that toffee covered stuff, the proper sweet stuff like you get in cinemas in England. Anyone know of a place I can get it over here? The salty stuff just doesn't cut it for me.

Not sure if it's really what you're after, but you can buy the uncooked popcorn and do it yourself.....

You can buy that really disgusting sweet, coloured stuff at the supermarket, but it's gross.

Coles do an organic sweet one (might be sweet and salty from memory)... does the trick...

Else just cook your own and chuck a ton of sugar on it instead

I like this one http://www.organicsonly.com.au/produ...ly_sweet/640/1

I also find the normal fare too salty.

Hi Aus2be

Oh sorry to hear about your popcorn. I bet your wife was really looking forward to that. My daughter & her boyfriend are going to perth in a couple of weeks. they are staying at scarbough on the beach. they are only there for a week. sight seeing. How are you lking it there ? Ive never been to perth.

Sorry got off the subject of popcorn.

We have a monthly farmers market and one of the traders do a mixed salty/sweet popcorn which is $9.00 for a huge bag and it's perfect - want me to send you some?
