Tonight, we’re sending a heartfelt thank you to the NAACP as they host their annual gala in support of college students across our community. 🎓

Naughty But Nice Kettle Corn Company is honored to make a partial donation and to be recognized among partners who truly understand the rising cost of education and the importance of diversifying skills, leadership, and opportunities for young people.

We know firsthand how meaningful scholarships can be — they ease the financial burden on families, open doors for students, and strengthen the very workforce and communities we all depend on. This is what it looks like to close the skills gap, expand access, and build a brighter tomorrow.

This partnership is poppin’ with a purpose, and we’re so grateful to the NAACP for fueling missions like ours, allowing all of us to make the world a sweeter place — one student, one opportunity, one act of kindness at a time and one kernel at a time. 🍿❤️

We didn’t grow up dreaming of making kettle corn.
That wasn’t the childhood vision, the big life plan, or the thing we thought we’d build our world around.

But what we did grow up learning was how to love people.
How to serve.
How to show up for community.
How to spread joy — even when life gets heavy.

So every morning when we fire up those kettles, it isn’t because we’re obsessed with kettle corn.
It’s because we’re obsessed with the joy it brings.
The smiles, the memories, the sweetness we get to add to someone’s hardest day or happiest moment. That’s what keeps our doors open.

This Giving Tuesday, that same heart is guiding us as we partner with Bundles of Hope for our annual Diaper Drive. We’re proud to help support families who deserve dignity, relief, and love.

To every community partner, every corporation, every loyal Pophead who pours back into us and pops with a purpose — thank you.
You are the reason we keep going.
You are the sweetness behind the sweetness. 💛🍿

A Sweet Start to December: Community, Giving & Simple Joys

December has arrived, reminding us of what truly matters — family, connection, and finding joy in life’s simple, sweet moments. With so many Americans impacted by corporate layoffs this year, we understand how heavy this season can feel. But joy doesn’t have to be expensive. Sometimes it’s as simple as sharing a warm bag of kettle corn with someone you love.

At Naughty But Nice Kettle Corn Company™, we hope to help you slow down, savor the sweetness, and enjoy the holidays without stress.

Saturday hits different this year.

MS. Poppy, our kettle corn truck has been sick and getting repairs for two weeks. She will be nursed back to health and repairs are underway. We had plans to attend today.

But like every small business, we pushed through. Our team showed up strong, flexible, and committed to making sure every Pophead was taken care of.

Every batch of kettle corn we’ve made has been prayed over. Every customer has been prayed over. Our kids have watched us pop late nights, take calls, pack orders, and serve our community with love, intention, and purpose.

This is what small business looks like nationwide — families sacrificing, believing, and showing up every day.

Here are 6 ways to support small businesses today and every day:
1. Shop their website
2. Pre-purchase now, use later
3. Share their posts + tag them
4. Leave a review
5. Volunteer your time/skills
6. Invest if you’re able

We’re also running our Blue Friday Cyber Sale that begin on Friday, November 28th.
There’s talk about halting spending this weekend, PLEASE support small businesses who aren’t tied to those economic stances.

Thank you for popping with a purpose. 💙🍿
Check our hours online and come visit us soon.

What emotion do you connect to when you hear, see or taste ?

A Heart Full of Gratitude

As we enter Thanksgiving week, we pause to express our deepest gratitude.

Your support allows a small, hand-crafted snack company like ours to continue popping with purpose — even in challenging times.

We also understand that this holiday season weighs heavy for many.
Federal workers. Families impacted by SNAP benefit cuts.

Community members navigating layoffs and uncertainty.

Your resilience inspires us.
Your support sustains us.
Your kindness connects us.

Giving Tuesday: A Sweet Tradition of Giving

Together, we’re offering complimentary meals + kettle corn on:

Nov 26
⏰ 12 PM – 1 PM

📍 Pick up meal ticket + kettle corn at NBNKC

🎟️ Redeem meal at Bayles Catering

These Wednesday campaigns lead into Giving Tuesday, reminding us that generosity should be a rhythm—not a date.

Small Business Friday + Saturday

The heart of the American economy beats in small businesses.

Every day, national job reports highlight growing layoffs from large corporations — alarming numbers that affect families, communities, and local economies.

But even in the midst of those challenges, small businesses continue to sustain, build, create, and serve.
Not because it’s easy — but because we are resilient.

We pivot.
We innovate.
We show up for our communities.

At Naughty But Nice Kettle Corn Co., our Make Your Local Pop initiative has always been rooted in supporting, celebrating, and uplifting small businesses.

And while we did not run formal collaborations this year, we made it a priority to:

Share local wins
Celebrate milestones
Give feedback and encouragement
Spotlight small business excellence
Support businesses through our purchases, partnerships, and platform

It truly takes a village—and we are proud to be part of the ecosystem that keeps Birmingham (and beyond) thriving.

Please remember that small batches = extra love!

Orders typically ship in 3-5 business days (7-14 days for bulk and custom orders).

All kettle corn is popped fresh by hand for an elevated snacking experience.

PopHead Spotlight

This season, we're shouting out YOU!

As we gather around the table this Thanksgiving, we're reflecting on what matters most—faith, family, and community.

From our kettle to your home, we're praying your holiday is filled with love, laughter, and light.

With sweet gratitude,
The NBNKC Family
