Marshmallow Pebbles
From: Post
Introduced in 2010


In the summer of 2010, this cereal was described on the box as a "sweetened cereal with marshmallows" and an "excellent source of Vitamin D."

At that same time, the Post Cereals official website declared, "The newest edition to the Post Pebbles family delivers delicious 'vanilla-graham' flavor and fun prehistoric Marshmallows!"

This cereal is similar in name and appearance to Marshmallow Mania Pebbles, a cereal introduced in 2005 which has since vanished.


When Marshmallow Pebbles was first introduced, the side panel of the box included a recipe for a snack called Quarry Crunch.

    Wow, I didn't realize this cereal was released in 2010. I tried it for the first time at my local Shop-Rite just 3 months ago and it was awesome. Probably way more sugar than I should be eating at my age, but this had to be the best cereal I've had in years. Surprised no one on here can find it at their local stores. I think my ShopRite still has boxes available, unless they recently pulled it from the shelves.

    I bought a box of Marshmallow Pebbles and it was totally delicious. Now I've got three flavors of Post Pebbles to enjoy: Fruity, Cocoa, and Marshmallow.
