Where it all began
Not just the original — the STANDARD for kettle corn.
Popped in small batches by hand, KettlePOP is the very first and ORIGINAL kettle corn. Old time "sugar corn" has been around for hundreds of years — but contrary to popular belief, Kettle Corn does have a beginning… and it began with KettlePOP!
You may have noticed on many web pages that "a Missouri farmer" or "a Midwestern farmer" popped sugar corn in a large cast iron kettle over a wood fire. That farmer is Bill Mann, father to Gary Mann who is President of The Original Kettle Korn™. In 2008, Gary Mann retired and passed on the reigns of superior quality kettle corn equipment to the next generation of kettle corn experts — KettlePOP.
Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, KettlePOP IS kettle corn. With decades of combined experience in kettle corn production, manufacturing, packaging, sales, and distribution — the KettlePOP team knows kettle corn and knows the kettle corn business. It's what we do!

Not just the ORIGINAL — the very BEST.
KettlePOP isn't satisfied with just being the ORIGINAL KettleCorn. We employ a three-stage quality assurance technique to ensure that our kettle corn is also the very BEST on earth.
We scour the globe for the best ingredients and work closely with farmers to ensure that only the highest quality corn goes into each bag.
We hand pop each and every kernel to perfection in a patented fire-burning kettle — just like the ones you see at your farmer's market.
We infuse — never spray — the popcorn with preservative-free flavorings. The result is a deeper, more authentic flavor in every single kernel.
