Back by Popular Demand: Catalina Crunch Brings Back Fan-Favorite Apple Cider Donut Cereal, Now Better Than Ever

The beloved seasonal flavor returns for a limited time with its best nutrition yet: 11g protein, 10g fiber, and 0g sugar

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- You asked. We listened. Catalina Snacks®, a leading innovator redefining better-for-you cereals and snacks, is bringing back one of its most-loved seasonal flavors, Apple Cider Donut Cereal. Back by popular demand and available for a limited time, the fan favorite returns with everything consumers love about the nostalgic fall treat, now with its best macros ever: 11g of plant-based protein, 10g of fiber, and 0g of sugar.

Inspired by the warm, cinnamon-dusted donuts handed out at orchards and farm stands every fall, Apple Cider Donut Cereal captures the season's signature flavors: spiced cider, warm cinnamon and that first golden bite of apple, without all of the sugar. Each piece holds its crunch in a bowl of cold milk, layers into a yogurt parfait, tops a smoothie bowl or serves as a delightfully crunchy snack.

"When I started Catalina Crunch, I wanted to make cereal you could feel good about eating every single day, and Apple Cider Donut has become one of the clearest signs that our community feels the same way," said Krishna Kaliannan, Founder of Catalina Snacks. "Every fall, the requests start pouring in the moment the leaves begin to turn, and seeing it become a seasonal ritual for so many families is a true honor. This year, we're bringing it back with even more fiber than before, alongside the protein, and zero sugar that set our brand apart, so fans can enjoy the coziest flavor of the season without compromise."

Catalina Crunch sets itself apart from competitors on grocery shelves through what it puts in, and what it leaves out. Every bowl is built on the brand's proprietary blend of plant proteins and fibers, developed to deliver real nutrition without sacrificing taste or texture. Catalina Crunch's new Apple Cider Donut Cereal is just a sneak peek at innovation to come throughout the rest of the year and into 2027.

Apple Cider Donut Cereal is also gluten-free, Non-GMO Project Verified, Plant-based, keto-friendly, GLP-1 friendly, and Kosher, making it an easy fit for nearly every pantry and lifestyle. Fans can purchase the new flavor online at catalinacrunch.com, Amazon, and Walmart.com while supplies last.
