Little Debbie® Apple Cinnamon Donut Sticks: A Flavorful Morning Twist!

COLLEGEDALE, Tenn., June 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- McKee Foods has expanded the Little Debbie portfolio with the introduction of Apple Cinnamon Donut Sticks. Available on shelves since late April, this new offering merges the classic experience of original Donut Sticks with the warm, inviting flavors of apple and cinnamon, making them a great addition to any morning routine.

The Apple Cinnamon Donut Sticks feature a soft yet substantial texture, topped with an apple cinnamon-flavored glaze, creating a satisfying balance of texture and flavor. Ideal for on-the-go breakfasts, afternoon snacks, or alongside coffee or tea, these new additions are set to become a pantry staple for fans of Little Debbie.

Early consumer feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. Comments include "tastes like an apple pie and the original Donut Sticks had a baby!" and "It smells so good," with many praising the authentic apple flavor and aroma.

In response to consumer demand for more diverse and convenient breakfast options, McKee Foods continues to innovate while maintaining the quality and familiarity associated with the Little Debbie brand. The introduction of Apple Cinnamon Donut Sticks is a testament to this commitment.
