Scottish oats company, Stoats, has announced the launch of Toasted Oaty Flakes, a 100% wholegrain cereal with premium oats that have been cooked and roasted for extra crunch.

Managing Director at Stoats, Tony Stone said: “At Stoats we are listening to consumers and their need for products that tick the boxes of health and wellness, which includes no added sugar, natural protein and wholegrains. This has led to the development of our Toasted Oaty Flakes range, which is perfect for those that love porridge but are looking for alternative cold cereal options from mueslis and granolas.”
