Velma’s Maple Kettle Corn

Sunday, July 12th, 2009

OK, we try a new spin on kettle corn at the Springfield Farmers Market. As I mentioned in the video, somebody had come by our Framingham Farmers Market location and was selling maple syrup on that day. I told the vendor that I’ve seen a few people who make maple syrup also make maple kettle corn. They have access to the primary resource, which is maple syrup and it doesn’t cost that much more for the popcorn and oil. I’ve tried maple kettle corn from other vendors and I certainly like it, but after you’ve stuffed your face with an entire bag, it starts to end up being note one kind of flavor. I must have dumped at least $4 worth of maple syrup into the kettle for this batch, so financially one would take a hit if you did this on a regular basis.
