How to make unicorn popcorn

Making unicorn popcorn is not difficult by any means. The hardest part is not eating all the candy before you put it all together.

Unicorn Popcorn Recipe: Ingredients

For this popcorn party treat you will need to buy a few sweet items. What makes this recipe special are the unicorns and rainbows throughout. I stumbled across these special Lucky Charms that include magical unicorns. I enlisted my daughter to sort through separating the rainbows and unicorns.

Pop your own popcorn or purchase a bag of popcorn pre-made. Then, you will need to purchase purple, light blue, and pink candy melts. Yellow candy melts would be great to add.

Unicorn Food treat instructions

First, place popcorn on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.

Next, melt 1/4 cups of each color of candy melts and spread throughout the popcorn in layers.

After you top the popcorn with the last color immediately toss the sprinkles, unicorns and rainbows on top.

Place popcorn mixture in fridge for at least fifteen minutes to allow candy to harden. Take cookie sheet out of fridge and break up the popcorn to place in bags, cups or sacks.

Place Starburst candy pieces throughout to add more fun to the mix. The candy adds a new dimension to the popcorn. Guests will be pleasantly surprised by all the flavors. Only something as magical as a unicorn could create such a satisfying snack item.

Aren’t Unicorn party treats so much fun! This popcorn makes me want to host a Unicorn Party. It’s so colorful and tasty I might add.
