The Circle K Butterfinger® Bakery range has been created by the convenience store retail brand in collaboration with Butterfinger as a series of sweet treats that offer affordable indulgence out of the house.
The product range is a limited time offering with three bakery treats to try out including the Butterfinger Brownie, Butterfinger Rice Crispy and the Butterfinger Cookie. The range also features the Butterfinger Flavored Hot Cappuccino to work well on its own or as a pairing with one of the bakery items. The $3 Bakery Meal Deal is also being offered, which includes one bakery item with a medium coffee or any size Polar Pop.
Head of Food Merchandising Dan Larmondra commented on the Circle K Butterfinger® Bakery range saying, "Our customers are busy, and they're looking for those small moments of joy they can grab on the go, whether for themselves after a long day or for the whole family on the way to school drop off. This new Butterfinger lineup is our answer—an iconic flavor, an unbeatable value, and the perfect pick-me-up treat you can only get here at Circle K."
