What are hot cereals?
Hot cereals are warm, porridge-style meals typically made from grains such as wheat, rice, corn, or oats. At Gabriel and Daniel, we offer a variety of thoughtfully crafted blends to suit every taste and nutritional need.
Creamy Wheat
Enriched wheat flour offers a valuable source of iron, thiamine, niacin, calcium, and vitamin B6. Organic cream of wheat makes a delicious and satisfying breakfast, perfect for a nourishing start to the day. Made from ground wheat kernels, it is sourced from farms that avoid synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, ensuring a cleaner, more wholesome option for your table.
Creamy Rice
This nourishing blend features organic, gluten-free rice that provides lasting energy and a sense of fullness. We add organic ground cinnamon to support both heart and gut health. Cream of Rice is known for its smooth, creamy texture, making it a comforting and easy-to-digest breakfast option. It’s especially ideal for those with sensitive digestion or recovering from illness. Each serving is cholesterol free, very low in sodium, and an excellent source of iron, vitamin C, vitamin D, magnesium, and selenium.
Cream of Corn
Yellow corn is a rich source of the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, which support eye health and vision. Cream of corn is a traditional Latin American dish enjoyed across countries like Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Argentina, and throughout the Caribbean. Typically made with corn, milk, sugar, and often enhanced with cinnamon or other spices, this comforting pudding-like cereal is both delicious and satisfying. It also makes a fantastic takeaway breakfast option as it’s warm, naturally gluten free, and full of flavor.
Cream of Corn with Coconut
Cream of corn with coconut is a delicious and nutrient-rich blend that combines the natural sweetness of corn with the smooth, creamy texture of coconut milk. Corn is digested slowly, helping to maintain steady blood sugar levels, and provides a good source of dietary fiber, vitamin C, B vitamins, manganese, and phosphorus. Coconut, a recognized superfood, adds healthy fats, fiber, and essential nutrients such as iron, potassium, and magnesium. Together, these ingredients create a comforting dish that’s both flavorful and nourishing.
