Pinnacle Foods said today (21 March) it is expanding its Duncan Hines brand in the US to include a microwaveable line of mixes to produce “freshly-baked treats” – Perfect Size for 1.

Pinnacle said the pre-measured mixes, available in 18 flavours, can be combined with water in a coffee mug and baked for about a minute in the microwave. The new product is also “easily customisable, with options to substitute water with any liquid of choice” in addition to toppings.
