THE TRADITION of enjoying popcorn while watching a film has become an integral part of the cinema experience. Popcorn has been an iconic snack in cinemas since the 1800s, starting with its popularity in the United States and then spreading throughout the world. Popcorn was chosen because it is easy to process, has a tempting aroma, and has a light texture so it can be enjoyed without disturbing focus while watching.
Over time, popcorn has undergone many flavor innovations, ranging from salty, cheese, caramel, to now with a sweet touch of honey which is not only a complement to watching, but also part of popular culture. Now, the experience of watching at the cinema is even more special with the presence of Honey Butter Popcorn, the latest collaboration from Madurasa and Cinépolis Cinemas which was launched on November 6 2024.
Through this collaboration, Madurasa, a natural honey-based health product from Combiphar, introduces Honey Butter Popcorn as a new way to enjoy pure honey in snack form. This variant combines the distinctive savory taste of popcorn with a sweet and natural touch of honey, creating a crunchy and delicious snack sensation, suitable to accompany watching moments.
Madurasa continues to innovate to provide the natural benefits of honey in a unique and easy to enjoy way, making it the right choice for consumers who want a healthy but still delicious snack.
“This collaboration is a form of our commitment to present the benefits of honey in a new, more fun and exciting way. Honey Butter Popcorn is the right choice for those who want to enjoy watching moments with a snack that is not only delicious, but also rich in benefits. “By collaborating with the Cinépolis cinema, we want to invite people to experience the goodness of 100% real honey in different forms,” said Combiphar Senior General Manager Corporate Communication, Dony Hermawan, Wednesday (6/11).
“We at Cinépolis Cinemas always strive to provide a viewing experience that is unique, relevant and meets the high quality standards that our visitors expect. This collaboration, coupled with the halal certification and A designation that we have just received, provides an opportunity for us to present new snack variants that are delicious, healthy and safe. “We believe that Honey Butter Popcorn will provide a new sweet touch to add excitement to the cinema,” said Director of Revenue from Cinépolis Cinemas Indonesia, Sandeep Atal.
The Honey Butter Popcorn product offers a combination of the sweet taste of pure honey with the savory and crunchy sensation of popcorn. With a campaign that carries the hashtags #TemanPASNonton and #madurasaXcinepolis, Madurasa and Cinépolis Cinemas hope that this product can become a watching companion that is liked by various groups, from families to the younger generation who like to try new things. This product launch event was held at Cinépolis Cinemas Senayan Park and was enthusiastically welcomed by visitors.
At this event, invited guests can enjoy a series of activities, starting from a photo session with the Madurasa bee colony, food tasting which allows guests to try the delicious Honey Butter Popcorn directly, to watching a film together.
Madurasa and Cinépolis Cinemas believe that Honey Butter Popcorn will add joy to the moment of watching at the cinema and bring new pleasure to consuming honey. With the right and unique flavor mix, this collaboration is another step from Combiphar to present health innovations that are not only useful, but also fun. (D-2)
