10 Creative Popcorn Gift Baskets for Any Occasion

PrintLooking for a versatile, flavorful snack that also makes a great gift? Gourmet popcorn is a best seller because it can easily fit with nearly any special occasion. That means there’s a wide variety of opportunities where you can market gourmet popcorn for gift baskets.

  1. Movie Night – Movie-based gift baskets are the perfect way to showcase a variety of popcorn flavors including buttered, caramel and cheese. Popcorn buckets make a decorative addition.
  2. Baby Shower – Just use the theme, “Ready to Pop!” Then fill the basket with either pink or blue colored popcorn. Accessorize with other baby items like pacifiers for a fun and unique, yet practical gift.
  3. Military Care Package – Popcorn is one of the snacks that can be easily shipped, making it ideal for care packages. Put together a patriotic thank you to our troops with red, white and blue colored popcorn.
  4. Off-to-College – Help students be prepared for long nights of studying and snacking. As an added fun touch, color the popcorn in the school’s colors. Include other dorm life essentials like post-it notes and caffeinated beverages.
  5. Beach Theme – For sun and fun, plan a tropical inspired beach basket! Combine sunglasses, beach towels, flip flops and decorative drink cups. Island flavors of popcorn can be banana and piña colada.
  6. Holiday Selections – Popcorn is festive and can be paired with any holiday celebration. For example, 4th of July fits for red cherry and blueberry. For a Halloween treat, try orange and black cherry. And you’ll fall in love with red cinnamon for Valentine’s Day.
  7. Dessert Flavors – Tempt the taste buds with some of the sweetest flavor recipes like lemon pound cake, birthday cake and churro. Imagine this as a raffle item for a fundraiser.
  8. Cheese Lovers – Create a cheese lover’s dream with a tantalizing combination of cheddar, white cheddar, buffalo blue cheese and nacho flavors. This would be a great addition for a tailgate party!
  9. Spice It Up – For those up to the challenge of the hottest, spiciest flavors, give them a selection that includes Buffalo breath, jalapeño and ghost pepper. You could make this a Father’s Day special.
  10. Chef’s Choice – Mix up an assortment of all your favorite flavors. This way customers can easily get a taste of the most popular items from your menu. Promote it as an ideal party hostess gift.

Gourmet popcorn gift baskets can work well for many businesses, including but not limited to:  popcorn shops, candy stores, grocery stores, gift shops and even flower shops. The possibilities are endless and so is the profit potential.
