Kellogg's is starting the new year with a new Pop-Tarts flavor that gives consumers a delicious way to eat chocolate for breakfast. Packaged in a flaky pastry shell that can be eaten on the go, this product provides a tasty and convenient way to start the day.
The latest Pop-Tarts flavor is Chocolatey Caramel and it consists of a chocolate pastry shell stuffed with a deacdent caramel filling. The pastry is then topped with chocolate frosting and rich brown icing. The delicious combination delivers a rich chocolate flavor that is both sweet and slightly salty. In order to keep chocoholics happy, this flavor will be a permanent addition to the existing Pop-Tarts lineup.
The chocolatey new addition is also joined by two other highly anticipated flavors that have already been spotted on store shelves: Maple Bacon and Watermelon.
