Mumbai: Parle Products, India’s leading biscuits, snacks and confectionery manufacturer, today announced its forays into the cereals category, with the launch of ‘Hide & Seek Fills’. The company aims to produce highly nutritious cereals for an energizing breakfast and strengthen its product portfolio for consumers in all age groups. To build on the legacy of quality and experience, the company’s premium ‘Platina’ range will bring an exciting mix of healthy and indulgent offerings into the newly launched segment.
Hide & Seek Fills will continue the renowned rich chocolaty experience established by Hide & Seek, India’s first-of-its-kind iconic Chocolate Chip Cookies, which debuted in 1996.

Our understanding indicated that a lot of people prefer breakfast cereals as healthy options for themselves and their kids. By extending Parle’s portfolio, our goal is to provide consumers with choices on quick and healthy breakfast. Our entry into the niche breakfast cereal industry will give a fresh perception of the values and character represented by the ‘Parle Products’ name. The new product – Hide & Seek Fills’ crispy and melt-in-your-mouth experience will incite a luxurious experience and we are confident that consumers will love to have ‘Hide & Seek Fills’ as their preferred breakfast option.
