Reformatted Churro

The traditional churro is transformed into a variety of snackable formats

Implications - The rising popularity of churros in North America has brought on the transformation of these traditional desserts into various snackable forms. Sometimes simply for the sake of novelty and other times for their portability, these emerging products indicate a shift in the marketing of the traditional churro, with the dessert once simply being considered a "treat," to now being considered an everyday snack.
Workshop Question - How could your brand reformat one of its products/services to make it more accessible?
Trend Themes
