Description

A fun and playful treat, Glow in the Dark Candy Popcorn Bombs are perfect for parties! This snack combines popcorn with a glowing candy coating for a delightful surprise under blacklight.


Ingredients

Scale

Main

  • 8 cups popped popcorn

Chocolate Coating

  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (melted)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon tonic water (for glow effect)

Color & Decoration

  • neon food coloring (blue, pink, yellow, green)
  • edible glitter (or luster dust)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Popcorn: Spread the popped popcorn evenly on a lined baking sheet.

2. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips with coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

3. Create the Glow Effect: Stir in the tonic water. This will give the candy coating a subtle glow under blacklight.

4. Add Color: Divide the melted chocolate mixture into separate bowls and add a few drops of neon food coloring to each.

5. Coat the Popcorn: Drizzle the colored chocolate over the popcorn, gently tossing to coat evenly.

6. Add the Magic Touch: Sprinkle with edible glitter or luster dust to enhance the glowing effect.

7. Set the Popcorn: Let the popcorn sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, allowing the chocolate to harden.

Notes

Best enjoyed under a blacklight for the ultimate glow-in-the-dark experience. Use food coloring sparingly to achieve vibrant colors.
