Dunkin' teams with General Mills on 3 coffee-flavored cereals for December

Dunkin' and General Mills are teaming up on three limited-edition cereals that borrow from the coffee chain's menu, and all three arrive in stores this December. Cinnamon Toast Crunch becomes Cinnamon Caramel Latte, Reese's Puffs becomes Peanut Butter Mocha, and Golden Grahams gets a Vanilla Graham Latte makeover. Delish broke the news, and the online reaction was loud before the boxes even hit shelves.

The flavor logic mostly checks out. Peanut Butter Mocha fits naturally because chocolate and peanut butter were already doing the heavy lifting. Cinnamon Toast Crunch layers caramel onto its familiar cinnamon sugar, while Golden Grahams turns those honey-graham squares into a vanilla coffee-shop situation. Breakfast staples, all three - now with a drive-thru twist.

One detail saves parents a lecture: none of the boxes actually contain coffee or caffeine. The flavors are inspired by Dunkin's drinks, not brewed into them, so a bowl still won't replace your morning pick-me-up. You'll need the real thing for that.

Those Golden Grahams finna slap

Where and when to find them

Brian Gilbert, vice president of retail business development at Inspire Brands, said in a statement that the collaboration lets Dunkin' "bring the flavors of some fan-favorite Dunkin' beverages beyond the cup and into the cereal bowl."

All three launch in December. The Golden Grahams Vanilla Graham Latte will be a Walmart exclusive, while the Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Reese's Puffs versions hit retailers nationwide. That Walmart-only Golden Grahams placement is the one early commenters are already calling dibs on.

Plenty of people are dropping opinions before the boxes ship. One fan wrote, "I'm definitely going try all of them," and General Mills' earlier Reese's Puffs PB&J release earned its own cheer: "The pb&j Reese's cereal is really good. Excited for these!" Someone else skipped the review and addressed Dunkin' directly: "let me go head and send you my address NOW!!!"

Delish writer Sean Abrams summed up the mood: "As someone who loves the taste of coffee, I have a feeling these are going to be right up my alley." His morning iced coffee is not going anywhere.
