These International Delight Home Alone products have been announced well ahead of the winter season as a series of coffee products perfect for avid fans to use to elevate their morning pick-me-up. The products include the new International Delight Hot Chocolate Marshmallow Creamer alongside the returning Frosted Sugar Cookie Creamer, Peppermint Mocha Creamer and Iced Coffee. The products are each branded with Kevin McCallister himself in cartoon form on the front of each bottle or carton to further drive home the holiday-themed nature of the items.
Director of Creamers at Danone North America Jennifer Michuda spoke on the new International Delight Home Alone products saying, "International Delight seasonal flavours are synonymous with relishing the taste of the holidays at home. Teaming up with 20th Century Studios to introduce our Home Alone-inspired creamers and iced coffee adds new flavour to this classic holiday tradition."
