If you grew up in Canada in the 60s, you'll remember Lucky Elephant Popcorn. I took the whimsy of the pink candy coated crunchies and added extra flavour with a dash of cherry extract. I made a more "brittle" form of the treat by processing the popcorn to crumbs too, turning it into a hand-held snack.
