Kellogg's is soon set to introduce its all-new Donut Shop cereal, featuring donut-shaped pieces in donut-flavored Pink and Chocolate varieties. Both new breakfast cereal products are set to be launched in family-sized boxes, offering a bold new way for one to enjoy the taste of a sweet, dessert-like snack for breakfast.
Although the cold cereal category is one that has struggled in recent years, especially as consumers crave healthier options that can also be taken on the go, Kellogg's Donut Shop cereals present themselves as an indulgent new option for mornings at home.
Just last year, the Quaker Oats Company launched Cap'n Crunch's Sprinkled Donut Crunch, which also offers a variation on the theme of a donut-flavored cereal for breakfast.
