About Snack Pop: The original concept for Cookie Pop came about in 2015 when founder Frank Florio started putting Oreos on popcorn at his home in New Jersey. He immediately realized that the combination of cookies and popcorn was a winner. After a year of development, Florio and his team had perfected the recipe for the first commercialized cookie covered popcorn. The brand debuted its innovative flavored popcorn at Expo West, the annual retailer trade show in Anaheim, California in 2016, at which Cookie Pop became an instant hit. Since then it has been picked up by thousands of retail locations. Snack Pop is currently under the SNAX-Sational Brands group umbrella, which consists of Snack Pop and Pasta Snacks. Jerry Bello, respected food industry entrepreneur is CEO of the SNAX-Sational Brands Group which he formulated in 2019. They initially offered two flavors in Cookie Pop, and their spin off Candy Pop launched in 2017 with their first flavor Butterfinger and in November 2019 they launched their second candy coated flavor exclusively at Sam’s Club TWIX Candy Pop. OREO will debut February 2020, with new varieties continuing to roll out. www.snackpop.com | Follow @EatSnackPop #TwixCandyPop #ButterfingerCandyPop #OreoCookiePop
