Crown Moulding - Finishing?

Hi All, quick question about Crown. My Wife and I bought an 18 year old house recently. I think the previous ownwers just slapped up the crown moulding without much care in the finish. It's butted up against a popcorn ceiling. Needless to say there are some gaps, some bigger than others, with the biggest being about the width of a silver dollar. What's the best way to conceal these gaps without taking it all down and scraping the popcorn off?

decorators caulk

Be careful mind because I gather you are a septic, and you lot call silicone caulk

I'm sorry to say this, but if you don't redo it, your crown molding will not ever look the same. I would just go a head and redo it so save a lot of hard ache.
