With a new school year on the horizon, parents are stocking up on back-to-school essentials like writing utensils and snacks, and the limited-edition PRETZELIZED x Crayola Sea Salt Pretzel Snackers Multipack delivers both. This collaboration matches 10 single-serve bags of PRETZELIZED Sea Salt Pretzel Snackers in ready-to-color packaging with four Crayola crayons in every box.
Color-in packaging is popping up across the food and beverage category as brands look for ways to stand out on-shelf, and add value beyond what's inside. This new Sea Salt Pretzel Snackers Multipack is supported by a demand for interactive, screen-free entertainment, and doubles as a hands-on activity that promises to engage kids even after the snack itself is gone.
The PRETZELIZED x Crayola Sea Salt Pretzel Snackers Multipack is now at Target and Whole Foods.
