The story · 1991

The story of Cocoa Avalanche

Frost the arctic fox rode a snowmobile down a mountain of marshmallows on every box, puffy jacket flapping. Cocoa Avalanche was half cereal and half marshmallow, and the marshmallows always slid to the top of the bag. The first bowl from a new box was pure snow. The last bowl was pure chocolate dust.

Fun fact

Warming a bowl in the microwave turned it into hot cocoa soup, a trick passed down by babysitters.
