Perfect for snacking, entertaining, or gifting, the brand's new artisanal varieties will feature indulgently delicious combinations of caramel corn with the most popular flavors of the season:  Orchard Apple Caramel Corn, Pumpkin Spice Caramel Corn, and Double Chocolate Caramel Corn. A holiday tin will also be offered and will include Orchard Apple Caramel Corn, Pumpkin Spice Caramel Corn, and Chicago Mix, which combines handmade caramel corn and real cheese corn in the same bag. The Orchard Apple Caramel Corn is sweet and tart, combining caramel corn with large slices and chunks of real Granny Smith and Fuji apples. Double Chocolate Caramel Corn is made with white and dark chocolate, whole almonds, and whole cashews. Reminiscent of a pumpkin pie, Pumpkin Spice Caramel Corn is made with real pumpkin, whole pumpkin seeds, large walnut pieces, and an autumn-inspired spice blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Each flavors incorporates G.H. Cretors' caramel popped corn, which is made the old- fashioned way: by hand, in copper kettles. Cane sugar, brown rice syrup (a non-GMO alternative to corn syrup with a lower glycemic impact) and creamy butter are heated over a flame to develop a rich, complex flavor. Freshly  popped popcorn is then hand-mixed with the caramel to ensure each kernel is perfectly coated with buttery caramel. Like all G.H. Cretors popped corn varieties, the limited edition flavors are made with all-natural ingredients completely free of GMOs, artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives and are gluten-free and kosher. "We are thrilled to introduce, for the very first time, unique holiday items that our fans can enjoy at home, share with friends, or give as a holiday gift,” says president Claire Cretors. “We are proud of the quality and quantity of ingredients we've combined with our already popular caramel corn. For example, we've added large slices and chunks of apples and whole nuts and seeds. We surely don't skimp, and we know our fans will appreciate it!" The Limited Edition flavors will be available in 8-ounce bags for an MSRP of $5.99 and will be available in natural food and mainstream grocery stores in September. The Limited Edition Tin will include an 8-ounce bag of Orchard Apple Caramel Corn, an 8-ounce bag of Pumpkin Spice Caramel Corn, and a 5-ounce bag of Chicago Mix. It will be available in natural food and mainstream grocery stores in September for an MSRP of $19.99.
