New Organic Gourmet Popcorn Perfect for Holiday Gifts

San Francisco, CA (October 15, 2008) — Jean Arnold and her husband Andy recently launched 479° Popcorn - www.479popcorn.com -with the goal of elevating one of America’s beloved snacks into a sophisticated treat. Made the traditional artisan way, by hand and in small batches, 479° Popcorn uses premium-quality organic ingredients, with flavors culled from around the globe, to create whimsical flavors that dazzle the mind and tickle the tongue.

“Who would have thought black truffle and white cheddar would come together to create a popcorn that’s a delight to the palate? But it does and it’s absolutely divine!” says Jean Arnold, founder, 479 Degrees Popcorn.

There are eight flavors in the 479 Popcorn family, including: Alderwood Smoked Sea Salt, Black Truffle and White Cheddar, Chipotle Caramel and Almonds, Fleur de Sel Caramel, Ginger Sesame Caramel, Madras Curry Coconut and Cashews, Pimentòn de La Vera, and Vietnamese Cinnamon Sugar.

479 Popcorn is a great gift for the holidays or company gift. Its eight flavors, each wrapped in high quality, artisan packaging, are available in two options: Samplers and Collections.
Samplers provide a tasting menu of flavors tailored to a handful of personalities. Each sampler includes five boxes, serving two to four people. Prices for the samplers start at $33.

Collections feature one gallon canisters and are the ultimate gourmet indulgence, designed to satisfy the most easy-going or extravagant palates. Prices for the collections start at $46.

479° Popcorn is available for purchase online at www.479popcorn.com and at gourmet markets and specialty stores in the San Francisco Bay Area and across the country.
