Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® Helps Families Make, Share And Give This Holiday Season

BATTLE CREEK, Mich., Nov. 29, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- For the third year in a row, Kellogg's Rice Krispies is helping families embrace the season of giving with the Kellogg's Rice Krispies "Treats 4 Toys" program. In partnership with Toys for Tots and master treat-maker, Jessica Siskin (aka Misterkrisp), Kellogg's Rice Krispies will donate a gift to Toys for Tots for every Rice Krispies treat made and shared with #Treats4Toys.¹

"Being able to experience the gift of giving is priceless," said Henry P. Osman, President and CEO of Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. "We're excited to partner with Kellogg's this holiday season and support children in need. There is nothing better than seeing the excitement on a child's face when he or she receives an unexpected gift."

To bring the Treats 4 Toys program to life, Siskin is helping create a fantastical, interactive New York holiday window featuring a Treat-to-Toy workshop that transforms her Kellogg's Rice Krispies creations into shiny new Hasbro toys for children in need. This is the first time Hasbro toys from beloved brands, such as MY LITTLE PONY, FURREAL FRIENDS and more, will be included in the window. People passing by can start the factory through a touchscreen display presenting the Hasbro toys that, once selected, bring the factory to life. New Yorkers can check out the display at 873 Broadway near Union Square from Nov. 29 to Dec. 1.

"I'm thrilled to be joining Kellogg's again this year in the creation of a fun, whimsical Treats 4 Toys holiday window," exclaimed Siskin. "What could be better than making delicious treats that also make a difference? Being able to support a wonderful organization like Tots for Toys is a great way to get into the holiday spirit."

About Misterkrisp
NYC-based food artist Jessica Siskin began making edible Rice Krispies Treat sculptures in December 2012. When Siskin realized that food coloring could be added to the side-of-the-box recipe, she felt an immediate and overwhelming impulse to make a Rice Krispies Treats shaped cheeseburger. She continued to experiment with Rice Krispies Treats recipes, techniques, and designs until Misterkrisp was born in October 2013. Siskin is inspired by her previous career in fashion, everything pop culture, the internet and emojis. When Siskin is not in the kitchen, she is working on her cookbook, Treat Yourself, from Workman out in May 2017. For more information on Misterkrisp, visit www.misterkrisp.com.
