Indulging in a rich, chocolatey experience for breakfast seems like a dream come true for any chocolate lover and recently, I had the pleasure of taste-testing and reviewing the new Kellogg’s Krave Choco Brownie flavour cereal.

The latest addition to the renowned Krave range of cereals from Kellogg’s is dedicated to satisfying the cravings of chocolate enthusiasts, whilst promising the ultimate taste experience. In this detailed review, we’ll explore the flavours, textures, nutritional aspects, and sustainability factors that make this cereal stand out.

The New Krave Choco Brownie Flavour

Kellogg’s has in their words “introduced a new dimension to breakfast” with the Choco Brownie Flavour, aiming to capture the delight of a rich and decadent chocolate brownie in a cereal. Promising a fusion of flavour and nutrition, the cereal proudly features vitamins such as Thiamin (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Vitamin B6, and Vitamin B12. Notably, it uses natural grains and refrains from artificial colours or flavours too.

The nutritional values, based on a 30g serving, are as follows:

For comparative purposes a 100g serving would be 1831 kJ / 436 kcal. It is worth noting that the intake of an average adult is 8400 kJ / 2000 kcal.

Texture and Taste

One of the immediate highlights of Krave Choco Brownie is its remarkable texture and taste. Despite being free from artificial additives, it delivers a profound chocolate brownie taste that’s both rich and satisfying. The cereal maintains a pleasant crunch, even when immersed in semi-skimmed milk. This unique quality sets it apart from traditional cereals, providing a consistently enjoyable experience throughout the bowl.

Versatility Beyond Breakfast

Krave Choco Brownie transcends the boundaries of conventional breakfast cereals. It doubles as an excellent snacking option, particularly for those with a sweet tooth. The cereal’s ability to mimic the taste of actual brownies adds to its versatility, making it a delightful treat at any time of the day.

As a family, we found the Krave Choco Brownie flavour to strike the perfect balance of sweetness. Catering to diverse palates, it emerged as a unanimous favourite among both the kids and us adults. The cereal manages to deliver on its promise of a chocolatey indulgence while maintaining a level of sweetness that caters to various taste preferences.

At the time of writing, the cereal is available exclusively at Asda, priced at £2.50 for a 375g box, making it an accessible and affordable treat, if a little limited in its availability should you not have an Asda store nearby.

This certification is awarded due to its adherence to the three pillars of sustainability: social, economic, and environmental. For consumers interested in conscious environmental choices, the Rainforest Alliance Certification will certainly add an extra layer of appeal.
