The 80-year journey of the Rice Krispies treat
Summary
Creamy, sticky, gooey, buttery marshmallow fluff and crisp grains of rice cereal make a well-known and delightfully simple dessert. Lore has it that, back in the 1930s, Kellogg employee Mildred Day invented the recipe for a fundraiser for a group of Camp Fire Girls. However, Mildred Day of the Kellogg Co. Home Economics Department worked on a different version of the recipe, made with molasses and corn syrup instead of marshmallows, which appeared on Rice Krispies packages in 1932. PopSugar has a recipe video for vegan mermaid Rice Krispies treats that are dipped in a teal and green coconut oil-nectar concoction. Additionally, we’ve brought back our famous ‘writable wrapper’ which allows parents to send their kids to school with a message of their love and support.
