A bowl of Reese's Puffs cereal

Reese's Puffs (formerly Reese's Peanut Butter Puffs) is a corn-based breakfast cereal manufactured by General Mills inspired by Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.[3][4] At its launch in May 1994[5] the cereal consisted of corn puffs flavored with chocolate and peanut butter. Later, the formula was revised to be a mixture of chocolate puffs and peanut butter puffs.[6]

Artificial flavours and food coloring were removed in 2015 in response to consumer demand.[7][8]
