D2C cereal brand [Magic Spoon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magic-spoon-grain-free-cereals) responded to consumer demand for grain-free cereal bars by creating a limited run of Cookies & Cream cereal bars. High in protein and low in carbs like its better-for-you, [keto breakfast cereals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-protein-bites), the limited product sold out within just 48 hours of launching online.

Consumers are stocking up on a range of eat-at-home and long-lasting cereal products such as breakfast cereals, granola bars and other cereal bars in response to extended periods of time living and working at home.

Magic Spoon's free-from cereal is available in fan-favorite flavors like Cocoa, Frosted, Fruity, Blueberry, Peanut Butter and Cinnamon, which leaves plenty of room for more grain-free cereal bars to be created in the future.
