When the days get shorter, the air grows crisp, and the first colorful leaves begin to fall, we know autumn has finally arrived. For many of us, fall is the most comforting season of the year — full of cozy sweaters, hayrides, apple picking, football games, and pumpkin-spiced everything. And at Inpopnito, Popcorn in Disguise, we believe autumn wouldn’t be complete without one more seasonal essential: gourmet popcorn.
Whether you’re curled up for a movie marathon, hosting friends for a fall get-together, or wandering the cobblestone streets of Newport, popcorn is the ultimate snack to elevate your autumn traditions. This season, we’re especially excited about our limited-run fall popcorn flavors: Caramel Apple Popcorn, Pumpkin Caramel Popcorn, and Autumn Spice Popcorn. Each flavor captures the essence of the season in its own unique way — and once you try them, you’ll see why autumn and popcorn belong together.
Why Autumn & Popcorn Go Hand in Hand
Popcorn has always been a snack for gathering. It’s quick, shareable, and endlessly adaptable to seasonal flavors. During autumn, it naturally fits into so many traditions:
- Movie nights: Cozy evenings call for warm blankets, fall films, and bowls of crunchy popcorn.
- Football games: Whether you’re tailgating outside or cheering from the couch, gourmet popcorn is the perfect gameday snack.
- Seasonal outings: From apple picking to pumpkin festivals, popcorn travels easily and adds a festive touch.
- Gifting: Fall is the start of the holiday season — and a bag of specialty popcorn makes a thoughtful hostess gift, teacher appreciation treat, or surprise for a friend.
Unlike heavy desserts or messy snacks, popcorn is light, fun, and versatile. And when infused with flavors inspired by the season, it becomes the ultimate way to enjoy autumn.
Caramel Apple Popcorn: Nostalgia in Every Bite
When you think of fall fairs and festivals, you probably think of caramel-dipped apples on a stick. We’ve taken that nostalgic treat and transformed it into a gourmet snack that’s easier (and less sticky!) to enjoy: Caramel Apple Popcorn.
Each bite blends the buttery sweetness of caramel with the tart freshness of crisp apple flavoring. The result? A perfectly balanced sweet-and-tangy crunch that feels like biting into an autumn carnival.
Perfect Pairings:
- Enjoy with a mug of hot apple cider for the ultimate apple-on-apple treat.
- Pair with a glass of Riesling or hard cider for a grown-up twist.
- Pack it for fall foliage trips or hayrides — it’s festive and portable.
Pumpkin Caramel Popcorn: The Fall Superstar
What would fall be without pumpkins? From pies to lattes, pumpkin reigns supreme every autumn. At Inpopnito, we’ve taken this seasonal favorite and elevated it with our gourmet twist: Pumpkin Caramel Popcorn.
This flavor combines rich, golden caramel with smooth pumpkin essence and a dash of warming spices. It’s cozy, indulgent, and undeniably fall. Think of it as your favorite pumpkin-spice latte, but with a crunch.
Perfect Pairings:
- Sip alongside a pumpkin spice latte for the ultimate autumn treat.
- Pair with chai tea for a spice-on-spice flavor explosion.
- Snack during a football game or spooky movie night — it’s hearty enough to stand in for dessert.
Autumn Spice Popcorn: A Seasonal Classic
Sometimes, simple is best. Our Autumn Spice Popcorn delivers all the cozy flavors you love about the season — cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves — wrapped around fluffy, crunchy popcorn. It’s like the comforting aroma of fresh-baked fall desserts, captured in a bag you can enjoy anytime.
Perfect Pairings:
- Cozy up with a cup of hot cocoa or spiced tea.
- Pair with a light red wine, like Pinot Noir, for a sophisticated twist.
- Share with friends around a bonfire for the ultimate fall snack moment.
Fall Activities Made Better with Popcorn
Popcorn isn’t just a snack — it’s an experience. And during autumn, it can make your favorite seasonal traditions even better:
Leaf-Peeping Road Trips: Pack a few bags of Caramel Apple or Autumn Spice Popcorn to enjoy while admiring the foliage.
Football Season: Swap out chips for Pumpkin Caramel Popcorn — it’s just as addictive and twice as festive.
Pumpkin Carving Parties: Keep the mess fun and the snacking easy with gourmet popcorn bowls on the table.
Wine Tastings: Bring along Butter Pecan or Autumn Spice Popcorn (yes, popcorn pairs beautifully with wine!) to impress your friends.
Cozy Nights In: Whether it’s a scary movie marathon or a board game night, our fall flavors make every gathering special.
Limited-Time Flavors — Get Them Before They’re Gone!
Here’s the catch: just like autumn leaves, our seasonal popcorn flavors don’t stick around forever. Caramel Apple, Pumpkin Caramel, and Autumn Spice Popcorn are made in limited runs each year — and once they’re gone, you’ll have to wait until next fall to enjoy them again.
That’s why we always recommend stocking up while you can. Grab a few bags for yourself, gift a couple to friends, and keep some on hand for impromptu get-togethers.
