I sat down to relax in front of the TV after an intense day and decided to watch a movie with my daughters. I was overwhelmed with a craving for chocolate covered popcorn. That's right! White chocolate bars filled with the aromas of Hawaii like orange and lime, coconut, macadamia and pineapple. A marvelous invention that takes you to a luau. Popcorn is a classic snack that most people enjoy. It's delicious no matter how it's served, whether it's with salt, butter, seasoning, sweets, caramel or chocolate. Relax with me and indulge in this great treat!
