In celebration of it being animated character Cinnamoroll's 15th anniversary, Sanrio is teaming up with KFC to offer Cinnamorol's Cinnamon Roll for a limited time in Japan. As part of the collaboration, individual cinnamon rolls are being sold in specially designed boxes that feature the beloved character from Sanrio. To mark its partnership with KFC, Sanrio's character is even dressed in a fast food uniform on the box.
Because the treats are packaged in a take-away box that is ideal for gifting, the packaging includes directions for reheating the roll in the microwave for best enjoyment at a later time.
Just as anime cafes are popular across Japan, so are menu items that give fans of a franchise all the more reason to go out of their way to try a new treat.
