Kellogg Takes Consumers ‘Off the Grid’ with Protein Waffles

It seems consumers are indeed hungry for hearty waffles: the frozen waffle market is expected to have a five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 5% by 2022, and year-over-year growth rate of approximately 4.46% for 2018, according to market research firm Technavio.

Other frozen protein waffle contenders include Van’s Foods’ vegan Power Grains waffles, with 10 grams of protein and MSRP of $3.99, Birch Benders Protein Toaster waffles, with 11 grams of protein and MSRP of $3.99, and Kodiak Cakes’ Power waffles, with 12 grams of protein and MSRP of $5.50. Despite the crowded aisle, Newman believes the brand’s flavor will set it apart.
