How to Cook Kettle Corn
The first important thing to note is that kettle corn is a particular kind of popcorn, made from mushroom kernels. It is often sweet, using sugar and oil to get its flavor, as opposed to movie style popcorn which is made from butterfly kernels and is usually flavored with butter flavors and salt.
You may wonder if you can make kettle corn in a commercial popcorn machine, and the answer is yes! All our popcorn machines can be used to make kettle corn, including the Cretors Mach 5 machines and GT60 machines. The great thing about making kettle corn is that your Cretors popcorn machine is perfectly suited to it. So, if you’re in an ongoing battle over popcorn vs kettle corn (and who isn’t?), there’s no need to keep your trusty machine held hostage for your favorite sweet treat, as it’ll do both jobs just as well.
