# Cereal-Infused Cakes Froot Loop Donuts are a Breakfast Dessert Mashup Treat By Gil Cohen | Published 2013-01-27 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/froot-loop-donuts References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2013/01/24/Froot-Loop-Donuts/) & [youtube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUJ92dT8XGc) [Breakfast cereal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kelloggs-cocoa-loops) and delicious desserts come together in these beautifully crafted Froot Loop Donuts. It's not enough to stick some Froot Loops on top of your donuts with icing, according to the experimental bakers at The Official Hungry, because that doesn't actually infuse the pastries with the flavor of the cereal. In this baking tutorial, the colorful loops get crushed up and mixed in with the dough so that they add crunch and taste to the [deep fried treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brainrot-doughnuts). Then the colors are separated and crushed again to top off the colored icing that decorates these donuts, making them look like giant-sized Froot Loops. Froot Loop Donuts can be enjoyed as a tasty snack and even served for breakfast. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 59% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [DIY](https://www.trendhunter.com/diy) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Cereal-infused Desserts:** Bakers are experimenting with infusing breakfast cereal into their dessert creations, opening up opportunities for innovative flavor pairings. - **Scratch-made Donuts:** Bakeries are focusing on creating donuts with homemade, artisanal dough to give customers a unique experience not found in mass-produced options. - **Creative Food Presentations:** By deconstructing familiar food items like Froot Loops and using them in unexpected ways, chefs are able to offer visually appealing dishes that stand out from the crowd. ### Where This Applies - **Bakery:** Bakeries can capitalize on the trend of cereal-infused desserts by experimenting with different cereals and flavors in their donut offerings. - **Restaurant:** Restaurants can offer unique dessert options to their menus by incorporating cereal-infused desserts and creative food presentations to elevate their dining experiences. - **Food and Beverage Manufacturing:** Manufacturing companies can create new breakfast cereal flavors that are designed specifically to mix well with doughs and batters, opening up new avenues for product development and partnership opportunities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fruity Cereal Milk Donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krispy-kreme-x-fruity-pebbles-milk.md) - [Glazed Donut Holes Cereals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glazed-donut-holes-cereals.md) - [Sweet Cereal-Flavored Doughnuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krispy-kreme-cinnamon-milk-glazed.md) - [Donut-Flavored Toaster Pastries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-tarts-donuts.md) - [Toaster Pastry-Inspired Donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krispy-kreme-and-poptart.md) - [Breakfast Cereal Bagels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/froot-loops-mini-bagels.md) - [Strawberry Cereal-Infused Milkshakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-froot-loops-shake.md) - [Chromatically Romantic Breakfast Cereals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/froot-loops-sweethearts.md) - [Cereal-Inspired Slushies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/froot-loops-icee.md)
