Once the mixture is evenly coated, fold in the candy corn. Stir gently and as quickly as possible, because the candy corn will begin to melt rather quickly and you want it to retain its shape as much as possible, otherwise your popcorn balls will turn yellowish (they will still taste good, though).

Recommended wine: Sparkling Rose, Sparkling Wine

Sparkling rosé and Sparkling Wine are my top picks for Popcorn. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. The Zonin Sparkling rosé with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.
