From: General Mills
Introduced in 1993


This cereal was described on the box as "sweetened corn puffs with sprinkles." The cereal pieces were shaped like stars with holes in the center.

A television commercial from 1994 gave a nice description of the star-shaped pieces:

Sprinkle Spangles taste so sweet... taste so crunchy. 'Cause we spangle every angle with sprinkles. Sprinkle Spangles start with a great sugar cookie taste, then spangles every angle with colorful sprinkles.

The cartoon spokesman for Sprinkle Spangles was a purple character named "The Genie". The side of one cereal box gave some valuable insight into the character:

He appears like magic,
In a flurry of sprinkles,
As the kids stare in awe,
Their eyes are a twinkle.

Full of magic and wonder,
He's a genie no less,
Every one of his wishes,
A sprinkly success.

"You wish it, I dish it,"
He says with a boast,
As he grants all the children,
What they want the most.

And what do they want,
Sprinkle Spangles no doubt,
His most sprinkly creation,
That makes kids want to shout!

So wish real hard,
And believe in him too,
And he just may grant,
Sprinkle Spangles to you.

I'd buy like 100 boxes a week of this cereal if it came back. I remember being a small child and in one sitting in the morning eating the whole box!

I really wish this cereal would be put back on the shelves because unlike any other cereal this cereal had its own unique taste. I loved it and had it all the time until one day my dad and I went to go purchase and found none. My daughter and husband would love this.

This cereal was by far the best of the 90's in my book! The company should bring it back right away!

Omg! My favorite! Talk about the greatest cereal in the world! Brings back my childhood memories when I used to climb the cabinet for this box. I've loved this cereal since I was seven years old! Who, what when and where can I find this box?
