In celebration of the movie's June 2 release date, the brand's Mini Donuts and Muffins, Pecan Swirls, and Glazed Honey Buns will feature Spider-Man packaging.

In anticipation of Sony Pictures’ Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the follow up to the Academy Award-winning animated film, releasing exclusively in theaters June 2, Tastykake is ramping up the hype with new product packaging inspired by the movie.

This collaboration was created with a great amount of attention and detail - and I’m confident fans will be even more excited by the bonus of the included trading cards featuring the beloved characters from the Spider-Verse films.”
