Old fashioned Monster Popcorn balls are so much fun for children and adults! There are
unlimited ways to make your balls, you just need to stretch the imagination. Use food
coloring and add to the melted mixture before adding the popcorn, if you want your balls
to look extra cool you can make two or three different colors and take a little of each when
forming your balls.
For more Halloween and autumn treats, try these Caramel Apple Crisp Bars, or this Ranch Pumpkin Seed recipe, Scarecrow Halloween Snack Mix made with caramel popcorn, candy corn, chocolate halloween candies, and Chex cereal.

Purple and green would look really neat in keeping with Halloween or red and green for
Christmas. If you are hosting a baby shower you could wrap light blue or pink balls in a fancy
wrapping and have your guests unwrap them for a Baby Shower Reveal Party.
Often people have their favorites but it’s always nice to mix them up. Drizzle melted
chocolate on the popcorn balls after they have cooled and wait until they set up before
storing. Store your popcorn balls in a large Tupperware or package individually in plastic
wrap.
