We Tried New Cinnamon Toast Crunch Waffle Cereal

There’s a new Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal on the block. No, I’m not talking about CTC churros or the spicy CinnaFuego you may have seen on shelves. This new Cinnamon Toast Crunch is more understated. It’s simple yet effective, and stays on the breakfast theme. I’m talking about Cinnamon Toast Crunch waffle cereal! Waffles, baby. 

And look, while a waffle-inspired cereal might not be as fun and imaginative as all of the Cinnamon Toast Crunch product ideaswe came up with for our own amusement (still waiting on those CTC Oreos), we were still w’awful excited to try it. Maple syrup and cinnamon? The concept feels like a no-brainer. There’s really nothing that can go wrong here, right? Right??

New Product!

Cinnamon Toast Waffle Crunch Cereal

That’s right. Really. Go ahead and pour me some waffles, because Cinnamon Toast Crunch Waffle Cereal is a pretty bangin’ breakfast in my book.

Pros: This cereal is even cozier than the beloved classic. I’m really impressed by the hint of maple syrup in this cereal, which deepens the cinnamon flavor without distracting from it. The syrup also adds a pleasant flavor to the milk. With a lighter, airier, puffier cereal body than the OG squares (think normal Cheetos vs. cheese puffs), I actually prefer these as a snack food. 

Cons: The body of CTC compels me to say: This new Cinnamon Toast Crunch unfortunately doesn’t hold up as well in milk as the original. The puffy waffles naturally get a little more soggy when submerged. It could definitely be worse, though—since they made the cereal thicker, it doesn’t dissolve into mush immediately. But you’ve gotta have a little sense of urgency.
