The holiday season is full of family, friends, and food. So. Much. Food. Especially fun holiday snacks. Trust us: we’re not complaining. As you know, we love our snacks. And the holidays are our favorite time to feast. In fact, we’re here to encourage even more snacking.
Our list of favorite holiday snacks includes the classics and what are sure to become new holiday traditions inside your home, at the office, or when gathering with friends during the holidays.
Chocolate covered chips are the perfect holiday snack. We release them seasonally and they always sell out fast. Our chocolate covered chips come in milk chocolate and dark chocolate varieties, and they’re always packaged in our limited edition collectible tins. When you buy milk chocolate and dark chocolate covered chips in the same order, we throw in a Better Made Snack Foods enamel ornament for your tree. Sweet, salty, crunchy. What else can you ask for in a holiday snack?
TIP: If you can’t wait for a delivery and need your chocolate covered chip fix now, use our chocolate covered chips tracker to find a local store near you selling these wonderful holiday snacks.
Popcorn is about as traditional a holiday snack as you can find. Heck, you can even see it strung up on trees this time of year. It’s a classic for a reason. To put it as simply as possible: it’s popcorn. You just can’t go wrong, especially when there are different flavors to enjoy throughout the season. We offer popcorn with movie theater butter, caramel popcorn, and of course the Detroit popcorn mix, among many other choices. You can order bags for personal munching or cases to give out as holiday gifts.
TIP: We make it easy to share Better Made Snack Foods popcorn during the holidays with our popcorn variety 10 pack. And you even get to handpick the popcorn varieties for your holiday snack pack.
Potato chips are the perfect snack anytime of year, but they definitely help bring holiday cheer. And when there are so many flavors to choose from, it’s hard not to get excited about these holiday snacks. Original, wavy, hot, or sweet. There is the perfect bag of potato chips for everyone. That’s why they also make the perfect holiday gift, especially when they’re packed in our commemorative tins. Or delivered in one of our amazing gift packs or snack packs.
TIP: If you’re hosting friends for a holiday wine night, don’t miss our wine night chip taster set. It’s designed to enhance your relaxation, and includes two stemless Better Made Snack Foods wine glasses and a corkscrew. Plus (we saved the best for last), eight bags of Detroit’s favorite potato chips.
Just as there is no shortage of holiday snacks, there is also no shortage of holiday parties this time of year. Whether you’re hosting your own holiday bash or attending someone else’s, here are some new twists on the classic holiday snack favorites.
Chocolate makes everything better. That includes a holiday party. And while chocolate covered chips are splendid all on their own, they also go well in a holiday snack mix. Throw chocolate covered chips in with M&Ms and mini marshmallows, and you have a sweet and salty holiday mix. If you want to mix it up even more, toss in some of our caramel popcorn, crunch up some candy canes, or sprinkle in our original corn pops. It’s quick, easy, and delicious.
If you haven’t heard of Christmas Crunch (some call it Santa Munch)…prepare to win the holiday snack game. This holiday snack mix uses popcorn and white chocolate as its foundation, and also includes M&Ms and pretzel sticks. You simply lay parchment paper or wax paper over a baking sheet, and spread the popcorn, pretzels, and M&Ms evenly over the baking sheet. Melt the white chocolate, pour it over the mix, let it cool and harden, then break it up and enjoy. To make your Christmas Crunch even more festive, toss some holiday sprinkles on top as well.
You can make your own holiday party mix or you can simplify the season by leaning on our party mix to get you through the holidays. Our party mix is an irresistible mix of mouthwatering Better Made snacks that take any gathering to the next level. Our mix includes an irresistible assortment of pretzels, nacho cheese tortilla chips, fried cheese curls, and corn chips. It’s a flavor explosion that satisfies any holiday snack fan. And don’t be afraid to throw in more Better Made Snack Foods favorites – like potato chips, potato sticks, or pork rinds – to add another element to your holiday snack mix.
While we mean “share” in the truest sense – with others (this is the season of giving after all) – we also mean share your favorite holiday snack and holiday snack mix with us on social media. You can engage with Better Made Snack Foods on Instagram and Facebook. We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Better Made Snack Foods has helped Michigan celebrate the season with tasty holiday snacks since we started business in 1930. It was the goal of our founders to make better potato chips. That’s why we only use locally farmed potatoes and the finest oils and seasoning on our products. All of our snacks are untouched by human hands until you reach in and grab a handful.
And we’re just getting started. We continue to develop a wide variety of award-winning snack foods for Michigan and beyond. Better Made is still family owned, still in Detroit, and still incredibly proud to support this amazing community.
Whether you’re a holiday snack purest, enjoying chocolate covered chips, popcorn, and potato chips, or you’re using your old favorites to make a new holiday snack mix, we’re thrilled to be a part of your holiday season. Everything is better with Better Made.
Happy holidays and happy snacking!
