Only by tuning in will fans understand the charming typo on the product packaging. While the new film was created without the involvement of the [iconic toaster pastry brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poptarts-super-stuffed), Pop-Tarts leaned in and partnered with filmmakers to release a comedic digital short written by and starring Jerry Seinfeld. "Unfrosted is the ultimate flattery, and the biggest fanfiction ever," said Heidi Ray, Senior Director of Brand Marketing, Pop-Tarts. Fans can win a Trat-Pops box of their own, the official box of the Unfrosted movie, by entering online.
