Sprinkle Spangles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sprinkle Spangles was a short-lived breakfast cereal by General Mills. It was introduced in the early 90s, alongside Hidden Treasures. The cereal was of star-shaped pieces covered with multi-colored sprinkles. The commercials claimed that they "Spangled every angle with sprinkles." Sprinkle Spangles were no longer available in 1995.

[edit] Mascot

The Sprinkle Spangles mascot was the Sprinkle Genie. He would often appear in front of children who wished they had sprinkles for breakfast. The Sprinkle Genie's own catchphrase was: "You wish it, I dish it!" He was voiced by Dom DeLuise. The mascot was even dropped before the cereal was retired.
