Cake-Flavored Breakfast Cereals

The New Minions Vanilla Cake Cereal is Like Dessert for Breakfast

— April 20, 2020 — Lifestyle
General Mills is turning dessert into breakfast with its new Minions Vanilla Cake Cereal.

The new 'Minions: The Rise of the Gru' movie is set to debut on July 2nd, 2021, but it looks like General Mills is hoping to drum up some excitement for the film a lot sooner. According to the Instagrammer @cereallife, the brand is set to debut a new Minions Vanilla Cake Cereal sometime very soon. Despite the bright yellow box, the new cereal is not banana-flavored, but is instead intended to taste like vanilla cake. This means sweetened corn cereal pieces studded with tasty mini marshmallows.

Colorful and sweet, the new Minions Vanilla Cake Cereal provides a tasty way to celebrate the Minions series.
