    Why use Kellogg's® Rice Krispies®?

    As the first crisped rice cereal, Kellogg’s® Rice Krispies® has been bringing families together in the kitchen for over 80 years.

    To experience the timeless flavor, make your Rice Krispies Treats® squares with the original Rice Krispies® brand cereal.

    Where to buy


1. Wash strawberries and pat dry with paper towels.

2. In small microwave-safe bowl combine chocolate morsels and shortening. Microwave at high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until melted, stirring every 30 seconds.

3. Place KELLOGG'S RICE KRISPIES cereal in shallow dish. Push skewers into strawberries through stem end. Dip in chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Roll in cereal. Place on wax paper. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes or until chocolate is firm.

Yummy but sad story. My son has been eating kellogg cereals out of his Cocoa Krispies bowl since he was 5. It was given to him when beloved neighbor, Harold, died. Rany wanted the bowl to remember him by. Tonight, in his 12th year, a very difficult time for him at school, and home, the bowl crashed to the floor. He cried for an hour. He's not one to cry. In fact, I've been seeing him struggle with his growing up. He seemed to be letting out all his pent up emotions over loss. Loss of the bowl, his father moving away, and feeling like an out cast at school. If any one knows how to, where to get a new Cocoa Krispies [brown mug with handle] cereal bowl, I would be eternally grateful. It was a very emotional evening for both of us. He said "how will I ever get to enjoy my cereal without my C.K. bowl." Thanks for letting me share my story about Rice Krispies Products.
