- 10 cups
- 1 tbsp neutral oil

Heat oil in a very large pot. Add popcorn kernels, cover and cook over high heat, shaking often (about 4 minutes). When popping stops, remove from heat immediately. Discard unpopped kernels and return popcorn to pot.
To make Caramel Coating, heat butter, sugar and golden syrup in a small pot over medium heat. Stir until dissolved then boil without stirring until bubbles change from small to big and mixture is a rich, deep golden colour (8 minutes total).
Pour caramel over popcorn, toss quickly and then sprinkle with hundreds and thousands, tossing to coat evenly. Leave to set then break up.
