It’s beginning to look a lot like
Christmas. The telltale signs are
clear a crispness in the air, the
bustle of holiday shoppers and the
aroma of freshly baked treats in
the kitchen.
While families across the coun
try usher in the season with their
own special traditions, the Orville
Redenbacher family will be “pop
ping up” tried-and-true favorites
in anticipation of the holidays.
From decorating the Christmas
tree with strings of popping com
to creating popcorn ball orna
ments, popcorn has always played
an important role in enhancing the
holiday mood.
In fact, one of the Redenba
chers’ favorite holiday traditions
is the making of Orville’s Ginger
corn House. This decorative house
can be used as a holiday center
piece for the home or a festive
addition to a holiday party.
And all members of the family
will enjoy creating and decorating
this edible masterpiece. People of
all ages will be simply
“a’maize’d” by what they can cre
ate with popcorn kernels. No mat
ter the level of artistic ability,
creating with com is easy with
freshly popped Orville Redenba
cher’s® Gourmet® Popping Com,
a few simple ingredients and the
following recipe for success.
