At Expo West 2025, the brand offered a look at its latest lineup, which includes reinvented favorites like Sausage Egg & Cheese and Denver Omelet. Of the bunch, the Everything Bagel flavor is a standout thanks to its rich cream cheese filling and a familiar seasoning that has gone viral beyond just breakfast and brunch foods.

These handheld Breakfast Buns feature savory fillings and soft steamed buns on the outside, offering a multisensory experience that brings a popular format beyond the lunch, dinner, and snack categories. These fully cooked Breakfast Buns are made to be heated and served, offering optimal convenience for busy morning and effortless weekend meals.
