Un petit plaisir qui réchauffe le cœur.

MORE THAN POPCORN. A MISSION.
Why buy Maïs Soufflé?
Because a bag of popcorn can help make room for the next great artist.
Founder Jarvus Ricardo Hester created Maïs Soufflé with a purpose that reaches far beyond the bag. Proceeds help fuel the work of three Harlem arts organizations: Harlem Boys Choir, Harlem Collective Opera, and Harlem Chamber Orchestra.
These organizations create platforms for artists across generations. They give young people the opportunity to discover their voices, develop their talents, learn, and perform, while creating space for established artists to continue sharing their gifts.
Every bag sold helps support that work. It helps keep the arts active, accessible, and connected to the community. So when you choose Maïs Soufflé, you're not simply buying a treat. You're helping create the next opportunity, the next performance, and the next chapter in Harlem's cultural story.
The popcorn is delicious. The purpose is even sweeter.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
A little joy can go a long way.
We believe the arts are not a luxury. They are part of the fabric of a thriving community. They inspire imagination, build confidence, connect generations, and remind us what becomes possible when people are given the opportunity to create.
We also believe supporting the arts should be joyful. It can happen during a movie night, around the family table, at a holiday gathering, or when you bring a thoughtful gift to someone's door.
That is the spirit behind Maïs Soufflé: a simple pleasure with a meaningful purpose. A little carnival in every bag, and a little more opportunity for the artists who make our communities extraordinary.
THE ONE AND ONLY
Harlem Tradition
Harlem Carmel Kettle Corn
Made the old-fashioned way with butter, molasses, and brown sugar, this family-heirloom caramel recipe has been handed down through generations. Every batch brings together real creamy butter, brown sugar, and real vanilla, finished with the special technique that gives Harlem Tradition its golden, buttery crunch. It is our signature favorite, and the flavor people come back for.

Our family-heirloom caramel recipe is crafted with real creamy butter, brown sugar, and real vanilla. The result is a golden, buttery caramel coating with the satisfying crunch that makes Harlem Tradition our number-one flavor.
