Kraft Heinz unveils 360CRISP™, a new platform for the microwave that creates crispy, crunchy products like you get on the stove. 360CRISP™ makes its debut with the launch of LUNCHABLES® Grilled Cheesies, with the goal to introduce five new products across four iconic brands by the end of 2024. Grilled Cheesies, powered by 360CRISP™ innovation, marries quality, convenience, and crave-ability in an easy-to-prepare format from the microwave.

As the brand’s first expansion into the frozen food category, LUNCHABLES® Grilled Cheesies features innovative technology that delivers a pan-like crisp in seconds. Gone are the days where consumers have to experience a burnt crust, yet cold inside, as 360CRISP™ delivers a golden brown, pan-like crisp outside and melty cheese inside in just 60 seconds. Leveraging a beloved household name – LUNCHABLES® – Grilled Cheesies provides a convenient snack option that empowers kids with the independence to prepare it directly in the microwave – no pans or stove necessary.

As kids’ snacking is a key driver of growth within the frozen category1, Kraft Heinz identified an opportunity to utilize its 360CRISP™ platform to bring something new and convenient to customers, while still delivering on the flavor and quality consumers expect from Kraft Heinz brands. The launch of the platform contributes to Kraft Heinz’s broader business transformation and intention to drive growth across North American business, targeting $2B in incremental net sales by 2027.

Grilled Cheesies boasts two wholesome, melt-in-your-mouth offerings that can be prepared in seconds. The product is available in Original and Pepperoni Pizza varieties.

LUNCHABLES® Grilled Cheesies rolls out to select grocery retailers across the US beginning this month for a suggested retail price of $4.99 per box of two sandwiches.
