In brief

The Popcorn Cart is a new cooking equipment available in Heartopia through the Projected Dreams event. This article guides you on how to obtain it, build it with the right materials, and use it to prepare exclusive recipes and progress in the game.

In Heartopia, the Popcorn Cart has made its appearance (alongside the Projected Dreams event) to let you prepare brand-new recipes and progress in the game. This article will explain how to get it, how to use it, and what kind of recipes you'll be able to whip up with it.

Getting the Popcorn Cart

To get the Popcorn Cart, you must take part in the Projected Dreams event. As soon as you sign up for the event, the cart will be visible in the rewards tab.

You'll be able to claim it once you've reached the required level. To craft the Popcorn Cart, you'll need:

6 branches
15 quality wood
1 Light and Shadow material set

Branches and quality wood are common resources that are easy to gather. The third item, the Light and Shadow material set, is a bit rarer: it's obtained by completing certain tasks tied to the event.

Using the Popcorn Cart

Once built and placed on your land, the Popcorn Cart becomes a permanent cooking station, dedicated solely to the event's recipes.

The Popcorn Cart lets you cook a whole range of items, from simple snacks to more elaborate combined dishes; for example, you'll be able to prepare Salted Popcorn Buckets (a simple recipe using basic ingredients like butter and brown sugar) or Caramel Popcorn Buckets (another simple dish that your friends in the game will love!).

Tip

It's best to prioritize buying the basic recipes first, so as to make the most of your Popcorn Cart by gradually unlocking more advanced dishes.
