What is Glaze Pop®?

Glaze Pop® is Gold Medal’s line of flavored popcorn glazes that transform ordinary popcorn into sweet gourmet popcorn right in the kettle.

Invented in the 1980s, Gold Medal president and flavor chemist, Bruce Evans, developed Glaze Pop® as a way for sweet popcorn to pop in the kettle without burning sugars. This not only simplified the process but also opened the possibility for anyone with a popper to create sweet, flavored popcorn.

Simply follow the package’s instructions and add Glaze Pop® to your popcorn, oil, and kernels during the popping cycle. As the popcorn pops, the glaze melts and adds a light coating to the kernels. The popcorn is ready to serve immediately—no additional tumbling or mixing required.

Whether you’re creating a classic caramel recipe or introducing seasonal flavors, Glaze Pop® makes sweet popcorn production fast, simple, and consistently delicious.
