About Breakfast cereal, cornflakes, frosted, fortified
Frosted fortified cornflakes are ready-to-eat corn flakes with a sweet coating and added vitamins or minerals. They are usually eaten with milk or a milk alternative, though they may also be eaten dry. This describes a frosted cereal category, not a particular brand or a specified sugar coating or fortification blend.
The cereal consists of thin, crisp flakes with a noticeably sweet surface and a mild corn taste beneath it. The coating may make the flakes appear glossy or lightly dusted, depending on the product. Recipes differ in sweetness, flake texture, and the nutrients added, so the category should not be treated as equivalent to plain fortified cornflakes.
