A Kent original, Popped! uses the best Ohio has to offer- like Ohio grown, Non-GMO popcorn, local butter from Hartzler Family Dairy in Wooster, locally roasted nuts, and honey from our own backyard. Even some of our containers are made just 1.4 miles away! Using original recipes and real ingredients we're making popcorn to get excited about- including savory, sweet and vegan recipes.

After years of perfecting caramel and other popcorn recipes while staying home with her four children Gwen Rosenberg opened Popped! in January 2012. A successful Kickstarter project helped launch her business in the heart of Kent’s downtown redevelopment. Gwen has blogged about some of her experiences starting a small business on the local online news website Kent Patch. She has also shared her experiences opening a small business with the Record Courier newspaper, Kent Stater Newspaper, Kent State Alumni Magazine and through speaking engagements at Kent State University.

Keep up with Popped! on Facebook where new recipes are unveiled and Kent’s quirky college town personality is reflected in the people and the popcorn.

If you’re in Kent, please come and visit us in downtown- we’re located in Acorn Alley II between Main Street and DePeyster Street facing the statue of our celebrated black squirrel.
