Pop and Caramalize
Prospects pop our popcorn fresh daily at our first-run movie theater in Ridgefield, CT. Our buttery caramel coating is made from scratch using our own recipe. Prospects teach and train the precise way to run both of our caramelizers to achieve the perfect coating, ensuring each batch meets our high standards of quality.

Draw and Design
The distinctive look of our Prospect-made art decorates every aspect of our gourmet popcorn. The hand-drawn logo on our popcorn bags, the attractive illustrations on the bag's back label, every design element is created by the talented artists at The Prospector. Even our business cards and our pink farmer's market tent showcase unique artwork. Our artistic touch reflects the creativity and craftsmanship that go into every product we offer.

Bag and Seal
The freshest gourmet popcorn can't wait around. We carefully measure the popcorn the moment it is ready, gently hand scooping it into our custom bags. Prospects then heat seal every bag to maintain freshness and quality, ensuring that our customers receive the best possible product. This process guarantees that our popcorn remains delicious and fresh from our kitchen to your door.
