General Mills has announced the release of a series of cereal-scented candles for all die-hard fans of the breakfast food. The candles will come in five flavors: ‘Cinnamon Toast Crunch,’ ‘Lucky Charms,’ ‘Trix,’ ‘Cocoa Puffs,’ and ‘Honey Nut Cheerios.’ Made from a soy wax blend that holds three wicks, each cereal candle boasts a total burn time of 25 hours.
News of the new candle offerings is sure to appeal to all cereal lovers, especially those who participated in the do-it-yourself cereal candle trend from TikTok last year. The cereal-scented candles will be available at Target for a retail price of $10 each or $15 for a three-pack.
