Kettle Corn Hawaii

These guys are always at different venues around town. The taste is a nice balance between salty and sweet. At first I thought the large bag was a big pricey, but once we started eating it, we soon discovered that it goes a long way — definitely more than enough for two toddlers and two (or three) adults to share.

ATMOSPHERE: Sam dropped my order off to me when I wanted it. Nothing funky/​strange about these people! They are down to earth… see SERVICE below.
FOOD: They pop on site at public events and if you need to special order, you’ll need to call them beforehand to try and put in an order as close to a popping day as possible. As indicated on their website, popcorn sales is based on availability.
I first discovered them at a craft fair – I devoured the entire bag of li-​hing-​covered kettle corn. This is the BEST Kettle Corn I have tasted. They maintain a good balance of sweet and salty AND the best part is that they don’t overcoat the popcorn in sugars. I try not to go for any chocolate/​caramel covered ones… or those that are just drenched in candy coats. If you want a more balanced and delicious tasting kettle corn without the coats overdone, Kettle Corn Hawaii is THE place to go.
Packaging is very clean and neat and you get enough bang for your buck: Large bag (4 quarts) is $ 6, small bag (1quart) is $ 3. I special ordered about 15 Small bags so that I could give them out as graduation treats for UH Manoa graduates. I was worried the small bag wouldn’t look plentiful enough but holy moly it can feed two hungry people. (My mom and I finished one small bag while walking back to our car from the graduation.) Small bag for $ 3 is a deal, people. You can also request the colors that you want to color your popcorn with. All of the flavors are the standard sugar coat flavor – no fruity/​food flavors. I love that… the fruit/​food flavored colors turn me off. Thank God all the colors taste the same. :)
SERVICE: EXCELLENT. Gave Sam tip too for driving my order to my workplace. We both had busy schedules and he maintained excellent communication the whole day. We kept in touch for the entire week of my order. He double checked my order and made sure that it would be prepared and delivered to me in the best and most convenient way possible. He offered cheaper options as well and if he could make it easier for my treat packaging. These guys are on it and I would love to give them business again for the next graduation season. Thank you, Sam! Service with a smile! It’s what everyone business is lacking nowadays… your service made my week!

dah buggah so ono! :D

Kettle Corn Hawaii uses the biggest and roundest popcorn I’ve ever seen. They also use just the right amount of sugar and salt so it’s not too sweet or too salty. It’s totally addictive.
