Leftover Delights: Cinnamon Toast Crunch’s Bacon Adventure | Krispy Kreme’s Barbie Connection
Leftovers is our look at a few of the product ideas popping up everywhere. Some are intriguing, some sound amazing and some are the kinds of ideas we would never dream of. We can’t write about everything that we get pitched, so here are some leftovers pulled from our inboxes.
Cinnamon Toast Crunch goes hog wild for bacon
Hormel’s Black Label Bacon is partnering with Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal on a product that combines the best of sweet and salty.
The limited-edition bacon has a crisp, sugary crust with cinnamon, sugar and salt. It is made by applying Cinnadust seasoning to thick-cut bacon and holding it overnight for optimal flavor. The Cinnamon Toast Crunch Bacon is Black Label’s first co-branded product.
Black Label Cinnamon Toast Crunch is designed for snacking or being paired with other foods, according to Hormel.
“Sweet and savory is such a classic combination, and blasting BLACK LABEL bacon with our CINNADUST seasoning blend is a no-brainer to deliver the epic flavor our fans love in even more ways,” Brandon Tyrrell, senior marketing manager for Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal, said in a statement.
Black Label Cinnamon Toast Crunch will be on shelves starting Sept. 16 at select Walmart locations. In the coming weeks, the product will make its way to some Kroger stores while supplies last.
