Both iced coffees are almost sickeningly sweet, which by the way is fine for cereal, another story for coffee. Our verdict on the Dunkin’ cereals is probably the opposite of their Dunkin’ coffee counterparts. How Do They Compare To Their Real Coffee Counterparts? Dunkin We’ll probably never touch the Mocha Latte again. The verdict: We finished the bowl of Dunkin’ Caramel Macchiato cereal. Unfortunately for Mocha though, the Caramel also improved, with the milk further intensifying the flavors, bringing much more of the caramel flavor forward. Let us say that overall we would’ve preferred more marshmallows in both boxes!īoth bowls of cereal improved when the cereal hit a soggy state, once the chocolate puffs soaked a good amount of milk in, the flavors became much more balanced and some of the harsh bitterness was tamped down, leaving a cereal that truly tastes like coffee in a bowl. With the Caramel, the flavors truly mesh into one thing - save for the marshmallows - whereas in the Mocha you’ll find yourself wishing there were more marshmallows included.
The Mocha Latte, on the other hand, went from being senses pleasing coffee forward experience to a bitter mess of chocolate chalk milk and a flavor that feels less harmonious than it’s Caramel counterpart. The experience was less like drinking a Dunkin’ Caramel Macchiato and more like drinking a blended caramel drink. I could truly taste the coffee with this one, but everything changed once milk was involved.Īs the cereals started to gather milk, the flavors really started activating, turning the Caramel Macchiato into a surprisingly smooth experience with a creamy well-balanced flavor that was further complemented by the occasional burst of sugar via the espresso-swirled marshmallows. Where the Caramel tasted like a violently sweet corn pop, the Mocha had a Cocoa Puffs quality that was further complemented by the earthy roasted flavors of espresso. In the dry test, it was pretty clear that the Mocha Latte was superior over the Caramel Macchiato. For all we know, the Dunkin’ cereal line is awful, or maybe one is good and the other is trash - look we’re just going to shut up, eat the damn cereals, and tell you our thoughts.Īlright, we’ve tried them! We felt it was important to try both boxes in three separate states: Dry, slightly milked, and fully engorged (excuse these names please). And the truth is that All-Bran, plain Shredded Wheat, Fibre 1, and Special K cereal just aren’t as good. While our own personal cereal rankings may differ slightly, the world of cereal is a world of truths.
For example, Cinnamon Toast Crunch is objectively better than Kellog’s All-Bran. Doesn’t it just fall to personal preference? In the coffee world maybe, but in the world of cereal, things are a little more black and white. You could argue that ranking these two cereal flavors is futile. Will this replace our morning cup of coffee? Let’s find out.ĭunkin’ Caramel Macchiato VS Dunkin’ Mocha Latte Dunkin We’ve tasked ourselves with figuring out not just which flavor is worth your money, but if a bowl of Dunkin’ cereal lives up to its namesake. Basically, Post is offering us all an edible form of iced coffee. How else would we have things like the Doritos Locos Taco? Are you going to tell us you want to live in a world without Doritos Locos Tacos? Aren’t things bad enough as it is?įor the collaboration, Post utilized the flavors in Dunkin’s Caramel Macchiato and Mocha Latte sweetened coffees, infusing each bowl with caffeine, espresso swirled marshmallows and corn-pop like cereal bites that provide a crunch to go along with the layered flavors of the iced coffee of your choice. But hey, we’re all for random cross-brand collaborations. Sure, no one asked Post cereal to link up with Dunkin’. We’re talking about giving Post’s new caffeine-infused Dunkin’ Caramel Macchiato and Mocha Latte cereal a try. No, we’re not talking about pouring a cup of coffee into your bowl of cereal instead of milk - though… let’s try that.
But we say, why choose just one when you can have both? Both can be consumed rather quickly and provide a jolt of early morning energy to help propel you into your day. Even for those of us who have transitioned into the new normal of working from home, there isn’t really an easier way to start the day than with a bowl of cereal or a cup of joe. Cereal and coffee - they’re bonafide breakfast staples designed for people who live a life on the go.
