Kraft Dinner has introduced a new dessert that combines the beloved cheesy pasta with cheesecake. The KD Mac & Cheesecake is a sweet and savory treat that aims to surprise and delight fans of the iconic brand.
Availability and Pricing
The KD Mac & Cheesecake will be available exclusively at SanRemo Bakery in Toronto and at other participating bakeries across Canada from May 26 until June 12, while supplies last. Each slice retails for $4.50 at SanRemo, though prices may vary slightly at other locations.
A Creative Collaboration
Brian Neumann, head of brand and creativity for Kraft Heinz Canada, explained the inspiration behind the product: 'As Canadians continue embracing nostalgic flavours and unexpected food mashups, we saw an opportunity to bring KD into dessert in a way that felt playful, surprising, but still unmistakably KD.'
SanRemo Bakery was chosen for its strong community ties and reputation for creating exciting desserts. Neumann added, 'SanRemo Bakery has built a loyal following in Toronto over the years and has become a go-to destination for delicious baked goods across the city.'
How It's Made
The cheesecake features KD cheese folded into both the graham cracker crust and the creamy batter. This results in a unique flavor that is both unexpected and instantly recognizable as KD. For those who want to try making it at home, the recipe is available at kraftdinner.ca/cheesecake.
Neumann summed up the product's appeal: 'The sweet-meets-savoury flavour is unexpected, but still instantly recognizable as KD. Now, even for dessert, it's gotta be KD.'
