The staff running the truck was amazing.. We had a lot of people bombard the truck after my mother’s services and they got people food quickly. They had their serving down. We would definitely hire them again.

If you're looking for something fun and different for your next event, then Cerealphoria is the way to go. Fun, tasty desserts with a unique twist with multiple options ensured there was something for everyone at a reasonable price. The owners, Amy and Ernesto were wonderful to work with and made sure all of our questions were answered, and our needs were met. Cerealphoria was a big hit with our employees.
