The cool, creamy and chocolatey Frosty is Wendy's signature frozen dessert and cereal fans will soon be able to add Wendy’s Frosty Chocolatey Cereal to their breakfast bowl thanks to a limited-edition collab with The Kellogg Co. This ready-to-eat cold cereal is loaded with cocoa-coated multi-grain cereal pieces and chocolate-flavored marshmallow bits to perfectly capture "the irresistible taste of a Wendy’s Frosty."
This dessert-like cereal promises to be a treat for fast food fans who want to experience the taste of a favorite chilled treat in a new format. As an added perk, the cereal box also shares an offer for a free small Frosty via the Wendy's app.
Earlier this year, Wendy's and Kellogg's also teamed up to create a co-branded flavor of Pringles based on the Spicy Chicken sandwich.
