The Angel x Reese’s Puffs cereal has been announced as a new collaboration with basketball player and double-double queen herself Angel Reese as a way to play with the athlete's own sense of duality.
The cereal features the classic flavor of chocolate and peanut butter, which is correlated to Reese's own sense of duality when it comes to her skills on the basketball court and her fashion sense. The limited-edition cereal showcases Reese front and center showing off her fashion sense as she holds a basketball. The product is making its way to the US market for $5.69, but will only be around while supplies last.
Angel Reese herself spoke on the Angel x Reese’s Puffs cereal saying, "I’m so excited to partner with such an iconic brand. Not only does this fulfill my childhood dream of being on a cereal box, but there couldn’t be a better fit for me to join forces with than Reese’s Puffs cereal. This collaboration is such an honor, and I can’t wait for fans to get their hands on the cereal box and see what’s next in this partnership."
