Purple Popcorn Seed Cracker
Redefining Whole Food Snacks at Home
We're partnering with Top Seedz because their commitment to whole, nutrient-dense ingredients reflects the same standards we apply to cast iron — integrity, performance, and enjoyment.
Together we developed a purple popcorn seed cracker combining a trio of antioxidant functionality: ferulic acid from purple popcorn, vitamin E from seeds, and vitamin C from a spread of your choice.
Popcorn, but especially the purple variety, is naturally supercharged with Ferulic Acid, a plant-based micronutrient scientifically studied for its health benefits. Crushed, we add it to a vitamin E-packed seed cracker baked low and slow. And to maximize antiox function, serve it with a sweet or savory vitamin C-packed spread — a tasty treat with glow-up benefits. Fun fact: Sweet red pepper has more vitamin C than an orange. See recipe below and host the next spa-inspired soirée. It’s advisable to make the crackers a day ahead to allow time to cool and crisp.
