SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Williams Sonoma, a member of the Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM) portfolio of brands, announced today the launch of an exclusive popcorn collaboration with Grammy Award-winning musician, designer, co-founder of The Roots, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Musical Director, author, and James Beard Award nominee Questlove.
Inspired by his love of design and popcorn, Questlove has partnered with Williams Sonoma to develop a line of products that create the ultimate popcorn experience at home and on the go!
Questlove has designed a popcorn collection that brings people together around a simple snack that everyone can enjoy. The Questlove for Williams Sonoma Collection features everything you need to season and serve popcorn during the holiday season or at an award show party! The SNEAKIES set included in the collection is a pocket-sized pack of all three seasoning flavors, designed for seasoning on the go and “sneaking” into the movie theatre.
"Movies and popcorn are one of the classic pairs in Western Civilization, like Starsky and Hutch or Ashford and Simpson. Being an avid movie-goer and huge popcorn fan, I wanted to create my own popcorn collection and give it a personal Questovian spin, in two directions. The first is my custom seasonings, which let you put extra punctuation on the sentence of your popcorn, either directly from the shaker or SNEAKIES, with the help of a good spray of avocado oil for full seasoning coverage. The second is the Glow Bowl I designed that will make your popcorn happy when it's laying in there and you happy when you're scooping it up with your hands on date night or at a holiday gathering.”
