The surge in functional cereal companies continues with another entry into the space from over in the UK, with Crispy Fantasy. It joins the growing list of well-marketed, high-protein, and flavor-driven cereals, and it recently expanded its flagship product into an actual menu. Until this month, Crispy Fantasy only had one flavor of cereal on the market in classic Chocolate, and now there is also Honey and Cinnamon.
The macros on Crispy Fantasy’s currently one and only product, aren’t as high in protein as our favorite competitor in the protein cereal game, Magic Spoon, but they’re not bad. Compared to Magic Spoon, Crispy Fantasy’s cereal has less protein and fat and more carbohydrates but about the same calories. In a 30g serving of the brand’s Chocolate flavor, you get 7.5g of protein primarily coming from soy protein, 11g of carbohydrates, 1.9g of fat, and 109 calories.
In Crispy Fantasy’s other more recent flavors, Honey and Cinnamon, the nutrition profiles are a bit different; in fact, you get as much as 13% more protein, around double the fat, and 122 to 126 calories instead of 109. Obviously, it comes down to taste for functional foods, and Crispy Fantasy’s cereal does sound good, featuring a traditional hoop shape, and it does have some sugar which should help it deliver a great taste.
Other key highlights of the relatively fresh and new Crispy Fantasy is its cereal is plant-based, it doesn’t use any artificial flavors, and it’s widely available. You can grab it from the online giant Amazon at £19.99 (24.14 USD) for a pack of four 250g boxes, or there are miniature single serving boxes with eight for £11.99 (14.48 USD). Both of those options come in three flavors, Chocolate, Honey, and Cinnamon, and are all on Amazon.
