What is the loaded cereal bowl trend on TikTok?

The loaded cereal bowl trend sees TikTokers adding various exciting toppings to basic cereal.

Some have opted to add bananas and strawberries to their bowl, while others will add some sweeter choices like cake.

Creators have all appeared to add some kind of nut butter and some “seasoning” like cinnamon.

Depending on whether you like your cereal to go soft or not, you can either add yogurt or milk to your bowl.

Many creators have made “healthier” versions of the loaded cereal by adding protein powders, yogurts or milk and sticking to just fruit as their topping of choice.

How did the loaded cereal bowl trend start?

Influencer Lauren Hoffman began the loaded cereal bowl trend and says it is a pregnancy craving for her.

For Lauren, her loaded cereal bowl consists of banana, honey nut cheerios cereal, strawberries, peanut butter and a crumbled brownie.

She then tops it with milk before tucking into the bowl.

Her initial loaded cereal post went viral and accumulated over 1.4 million views and hundreds of thousands of likes, as of 12 November 2024.

Now other content creators are taking Lauren’s idea and putting their own spin on the trend.

TikTok is home to a a viral trend known as the Hear me out cake trend challenge.

The new TikTok aesthetic has got many wondering what it is and how they can get involved.

TikTok’s “hear me out” cake trend is a popular video that users are recreating.

Sometimes referred to as the “smash cake challenge”, “hear me out” involves participants deciding who they would smash or pass on from a list of celebrities.

The challenge is an opportunity for players to confess their wildest secret celebrity crush to the world, no matter how bizarre or nonsensical it might seem.

Instead of candles, people will pin cut out images of celebrity faces on a cake to symbolize their crush as a birthday wish of some kind.

The hear me out challenge is a fun adult game to play on your birthday.

And many TikTok creators use the challenge as a way to improve engagement with their followers, most of which can’t help but respond in agreement, and at times repulsion to the creators crush confessions.

Other TikTok challenges that have gone viral are, the Just Give Me My Money trend.

This is a prank where participants say the phrase “just give me my money” in a funny voice and then cheer and applaud, except for one person, who is left out intentionally.
