A popcorn seasoning machine is disclosed. The popcorn seasoning machine includes a receptacle having a forced air system. A user then inputs a selected seasoning and popcorn into the device and depresses a control button for injecting air into the interior of the container for mixing popcorn and the seasoning. As a result, the seasoning is evenly distributed on the popcorn to facilitate an enjoyable popcorn eating experience. The device further includes an air pump therein which manually provides are to a vent platform to a top end of the receptable. The top end also includes a hingedly attached dome which seals the top end of the receptacle.

A food product flavoring apparatus is provided. In some embodiments, the apparatus includes a removable container configured to contain a flavor target, a device for agitating the flavor target, and a housing. The housing is configured to receive the agitated flavor target when the removable container is adjacent the housing such that the container opening is aligned with the housing opening. The apparatus further includes a device for applying a flavoring agent to the agitated flavor target a device for removing substantially all residual flavoring agent from the housing after the flavor target has been flavored. A method of applying a flavoring agent to a flavor target is also provided.

The present disclosure is directed to cannabinoids infused consumables, including cacao beans, dehydrated fruit, and raw popcorn kernels, along with methods of producing the cannabinoid infused cacao beans, dehydrated fruit, and raw popcorn kernels. The consumables are infused in an overall two-step process, in which cannabinoids from a Cannabis species are first infused into coconut oil, which in turn is used to infuse cacao beans, dehydrated fruit and raw popcorn kernels with cannabinoids to generate the cannabinoids infused cacao beans, dehydrated fruit and raw popcorn kernels.

A method of manufacturing candied popcorn, including providing: a kettle to pop popcorn kernels into popped popcorn; a drum to tumble the popped popcorn and sift out unpopped or undersized popcorn; a hopper to place the popped popcorn onto a tray; a scarf plate; and a drizzle applicator to apply an edible adhesive to the popped popcorn; preparing a volume of popped popcorn using a wet pop technique; transporting a portion of the volume of popped corn to the drum to sift out unpopped or undersized popcorn; placing the popcorn from the drum onto a tray; adjusting the height of the tray relative to a belt and placing the tray onto the belt; applying a first application of the edible adhesive onto the remaining popcorn; passing the remaining popcorn under the scarf plate to receive dry product; applying a second application of the edible adhesive onto the remaining popcorn.

A device for flavoring and or heating a consumable substance is disclosed including a body extending between an upper body end and a lower body end. An input aperture is proximal to the upper body end for receiving the consumable substance. A housing defines a housing chamber below the input aperture for temporarily holding the consumable substance. A closure is pivotably coupled to the housing for dispensing the consumable substance from the housing. A flavor dispenser dispenses the edible substance below the closure and engages the consumable substance. An output aperture is proximal to the lower end for dispensing the consumable substance into the container.
