Surreal's newest high-protein, zero-sugar cereal is a better-for-you chocolate hazelnut cereal that provides an indulgent yet healthy way to start the day. The vegan and gluten-free breakfast cereal is low in calories and high in fiber, and it gets its healthful qualities from ingredients like pea starch, a mix of soy and pea protein and a blend of stevia and erythritol for natural sweetness.
For the launch of its newest better-for-you breakfast cereal flavor, Surreal is marketing Choc Hazelnut in a way that skirts associations to popular chocolate hazelnut spreads. As the brand shared in a post to LinkedIn, "We’ve made a new cereal. It tastes just like chocolate spread…non-brand-specific chocolate spread, that is."
This low-carb cereal joins other decadent varieties from the brand like Caramelised Biscuit, Peanut Butter and Cookies & Cream.
