Description
Before this competitor to Pop Tarts was reformulated to be like Pop Tarts, they had a softer crust sprinkled with sugar and more fruit filling than the competitor. They came only four (two packs) to a box compared to Pop Tarts that came six (three packs) to a box. They probably changed to the harder less tasty crust and increased the quantity to six to better compete. The old recipe was of such better quality that it made up for getting fewer Toastettes than Pop Tarts.

Yes, Toastettes were way better than Pop-Tarts, and the filling was more. I grew up with this brand in the seventies, and I have to say the sprinkled sugar on top, had no effect whatsoever on me. I wish they were still being made.

I remember buying Nabisco Toastettes at Fed-Mart back in the 70's. They were so much better than pop-tarts. I wish they would would make a come back as well : )~

Toastettes used to come in Strawberry and Apple flavors and were the best out there. I can't believe that Pop Tarts are still around and the Toastettes are gone. They were so much better tasting and because of all the 90's sugar hype,Nabisco pulled them from their product lineup. What a shame!!

I have been searching and searching for my beloved Toastettes. They were my #1 breakfast food. Wal-Mart carried them long long ago. I hadn't given up til now. I can still taste the warm sprinkle sugar as I ate it hot out of the toaster. What memories. Like the VW Beatle, maybe our Toastettes will be brought back.

For some reason I was thinking about how good Toastettes tasted, even though I have not eaten one in years, I still have a yearning for it. I have come across other brands but none come close. Its astounding that Pop tarts won the war.

Nabisco Toastettes were simply the best of all the toaster pastries. However, Kellogg's Pop-Tarts along with their mascot, Milton the Toaster, simply was too much of a marketing bonanza to stop or compete with and so Nabisco ended up folding and discontinued it's breakfast product. If any of you would like some answers to your hopes of them bringing them back, then may I suggest you all try and email Nabisco at their own comment section on their website.

I'm with the rest of you all. Toastettes were the very best. I look for them all the time. I thought only certain grocery stores carried them. Did not know they were discontinued. Nabisco surely doesn't know what they did when they quit making them. We need to get them back. Please Nabisco or sell the recipe to someone else.

Toastettes rocked, but they're long gone. Toast'ems (the cheap cousin of Toastettes) can still be found. They're not as good as Toastettes were, but they blow away the flavorless, chewy, funky-flavored Pop-Tarts that line today's grocery stores shelves. ps: stay away from generic pop-tarts--they're even worse!

I am so crushed to find out that Toastettes have been discontinued. My favorite flavor was the cinnamon--yummy! That soft, chewy crust--poptarts aren't even in the same catagory. Please, please, Nabisco! I'll buy a ton!

My sister and I lived on Toastettes many days having them for breakfast and even a sweet snack in our lunch boxes. One of our favorite things to do was to break off the side pieces pretend they were false teeth. What a great and creative meal!!!

I absolutely loved Nabiscos Toastettes. If Nabisco would start making them again, I tuly believe that they would easily take over the toaster pastry market. Kids today have never even heard of Toastettes, but I'm sure they would love them as much as we did.

The best toaster pastry ever was Nabiscos Toastettes! However, I understand that they were actually pulled from the market due to a lawsuit by a man who claimed a fire in his home was caused by a flaming Toastette in his toaster. Bring back the original Toastette!

I still have a huge craving for Toastettes. I was so upset when NaBisco removed them from their line up. Pop-tarts aren't the same. I would love to melt butter in each hole on a strawberry Toastette after it came out of the toaster. Then I would eat the edges first, followed by middle coated in butter. It just made the day so much better when it started with a Toastette.
Mike - April 15, 2009 - Report this comment
Like so many others here, I grew up on these and hated like heck to see these go away!!! Nabisco really screwed up pulling a really pleasing product off the market. My favorites were the strawberry, apple, and cinnamon. Wasn't crazy about the icing versions either, that was their road down the dark side. Quite frankly, Pop Tarts taste like crap. I made Toastettes a regular part of my breakfast menu for years, and when they were pulled, I tried Pop Tart for about a week or two and haven't had a single one since then. Makes you wonder why in the world do they have to screw around with something when they got it right... go figure!!

My favorite pop tart! Still think about them. I wrote Nabisco several years ago to see if they still had them and if so where could I find them. Thier response to me was that they had never heard of a toastettes. Due to that fact, unfortunately the future for toastettes still looks grim.

Toastettes did rock! They were by far the best -- so much better than Pop-Tarts. Kellogg's has sustained the Pop-Tarts brand on its marketability, not the quality of the pastry. There is no comparison. Toastettes had that wonderful flaky, yellow crust, and the crystalline sugar on top was the "icing on the cake"! I can't remember when I last saw them on the shelves but it has been at least 15-20 years. Nabisco should bring these back. Think of all the baby boomers and others close behind that would snatch them up! Kids today have no idea how good Toastettes were!

Dale - October 05, 2009 - Report this comment
I worked for Nabisco as a sales rep. in 2000-2001. We were still selling Toastettes at that time. However, the varieties were limited. I recall frosted strawberry, blueberry, and brown sugar cinnamon. I only had one row of each variety, compared to multiple rows of Pop Tarts, on the top shelf of the breakfast pastry section. I agree with many others. These were the best. My father was a sales rep. for Nabisco as well and I practically grew up on these. I also liked the Almost Home cookie line that was available back in the 80's. The cookies all tasted homemade. Like so many other things, companies always discontinue the good stuff. As a child of the 80's, Toastettes rank up there with Sizzlean bacon, Cajun Spice Ruffles, and Kellogg's OJ's cereal. I have written to each of these companies about these products with little success.

Footnote: Possibly the coolest thing about them was pulling the "zip string" down the side of the envelope to open them. Also if you live near a Winn-Dixie I loved their "Crackin Good" store brand of pop-tarts. Not as good as Toastettes, but better than Kellogg's.

I just found this website and I thought I was the only one who felt this way about Toastettes. I remember fixing these when I was little, I loved the coarse granular sugar and the crust toasted to a shimmering golden brown. I would eat the edges first then slide the two halves apart and finish them off. PLEASE BRING THESE BACK, THEY ARE SO MUCH BETTER THAN pop-tarts. The sugar in these are no more that the garbage that kellogg's puts in there stuff and that frosting is simply awful. I have not had a decent toaster pastry since you pulled TOASTETTES from the market. PLEASE BRING THEM BACK. IF YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED, YOU HAVE A LOT OF FAITHFUL CUSTOMERS THAT SING TOASTETTES PRAISES.

Oh wow, this page is insane. I thought I was the only one who loved Nabisco Apple Toastettes. They were my favorite food as a kid, without a doubt. Then they disappeared and I thought someday like Howard Hughes I would pay Nabisco to fire up the oven and make a minimum order for me, probably around 50,000 toastettes. (I will happily share if that ever happens) Here's the funny thing. I grew up in NYC where I was well-known through college when they were starting to phase them out. Friends would send them to me when they found them in upstate NY chain stores (around '83). Then they disappeared. :( Then, in 1991, working in LA, I just happened upon some in a 99 cent type store in LA - I just ... saw them there ... and I bought them ALL!! And I ate them for weeks. Who knows if they were years old, they tasted fine. Just as I remembered. I made them last as long as I could and then they were gone again ... I will visit the Nabisco site ...

I have been thinking about Nabisco Toastettes for years. I ate them in the 1970's & 80's. It was so neat to find this page of comments. I didn't realize others remembered them with such fondness as I did. Toastettes were the best. I too loved the sugar sprinkles on top and the elevated pastry around the holes where the strawberry filling peeked through. As much as I dreaded getting ready to catch the bus, Toastettes were a big incentive in getting me up in the morning. Moma couldn't afford to buy treats but she made an exception for the Toastettes whenever she could. Thanks for the memories!!! Please bring them back to our grocery shelves, so I won't have to any longer look at the pop tarts every time I go and think--why can't there be Toastettes on this shelf?!!! It is like settling for a Ford Pinto instead of having the Ford Mustang (in the pastry food world.) lol!

I loved Toastettes and miss them horribly. I've always hated Pop Tarts. Toastettes were golden brown and the filling just the right combo of sweet/tart. Their ingredients weren't as artificial as Pop Tarts either, I think they just had artificial color. I want my Toastettes back!

Wow! I'm so excited that I'm not alone anymore! I wasn't even alive in the seventies (I was born in '80), but my sisters and I ate these EVERY DAY when we were growing up. They disappeared from my area around 92-93, except for the Air Force Commissary, which carried them longer. Like many of you, I would put butter on them right when they came out of the toaster, eat the edges, then enjoy the buttery, melty middle. Cherry were my favorite! To this day, I look in EVERY grocery store I'm in just in case there are some lone packs on the shelves. I was surprised by the comment about Winn Dixie's Crackin' Good pastries, because I too have always felt like they were the closest in comparison! Not too long ago, Quaker Oates made a breakfast pastry that came close to the apple toastette, but it too got pulled form the shelves. :( I've e-mailed Nabisco before, but it hasn't worked yet. I will join the Facebook group though!

So I see I'm not the only one who remembers Toastettes! I absolutely loved them. It's been years since I've had one. I grew up in the seventies and they were a staple at my house. Cherry and blueberry were my favorites. We ate them mainly for snacks. I too would heat them in the toaster and put butter on them, then eat the edges first, saving the middle for last! My mom and I were talking not long ago about how we wish they were still made. I was curious so I got on the internet and started looking and that's when I found this site.

Wow! I was craving Toastettes again this morning and decided to finally check the web. I didn't know so many felt the same way. Every flavor was great, we always had Apple and another flavor in the house. I loved the unfrosted/sugar sprinkled top, heating them up and savoring the taste w/ or w/o butter. The filling, the crust, the sprinkled top were always perfection. I am always looking for an alternative to pop-tarts. I agree pop-tarts are nasty horrible. I will definately look for the Facebook group. It will be hard to settle for another breakfast today after all of your detailed memories of Nabisco Toastettes!

I was one of five children growing up and our mom would always make us toastettes for breakfast. The strawberry kind. She would put (10) in a pan and spread butter over them and broil them in the oven until the butter melted and they were a golden brown...and OMG!!!! They were delicious :) My brothers and I would eat all except the crust and we would wrap it up in a paper towel and put it in the cabinet and it would be a foot race when the bus would drop us off after school. Oh how I miss the good ole days and the best toastettes ever. My children are now 25, 19, and 18 and I have brought them up on Poptarts. Actually...my daughter is know as the "POPTART QUEEN". I just so wish that they could experience the great taste of a good ole strawberry toastette. Now I have grandchildren and they have had the chance to experience Poptarts and I would love for my children and grandchildren (2nd & 3rd generations)to experience the great taste of a toastette.

Although Pop-Tarts back then tasted okay, they could not compare to Nabisco Toastettes. Somehow it didn't matter that Nabisco Toastettes had no real commercial viability, but what it lacked in that regard, it more than made up for in all-around better taste. Sorry Milton the toaster, but Nabisco had you beat, hands down, everytime.

I'm with everyone else. I loved these pop tarts, they were my favorite. We shopped at a family owned grocery store in the 80's and early 90's and they carried them for awhile. Cherry and Blueberry (not frosted) were my favorites. I do wish they would bring them back (no changes to the recipe) but from what it sounds like on here, the company doesn't even know they sold them. At least someone remembers them besides me and now I know what happened. Thanks for all the posts with the information.

I totally agree with everyone. Toastettes rocked and we need to get them back! Does anyone remember Kellogg's Danish-Go-Rounds? They also were better than Pop Tarts - the crust was softer, and they came four to a box. I read somewhere that it was because the soft crust crumbled and they fell apart in the toaster that Kellogg's discontinued them. I remember them from the early '70s. They weren't made for long.

Fun site, thanks for the memories! I loved Toastettes as well, particularly the apple and cinnamon flavors. They are sorey missed. I don't even think Kellogg's make apple Pop-tarts, so I have to settle for store-brand which aren't that great. I can't understand why Nabisco discontinued them, and the same goes for WAVERLY crackers! These were a staple on a my dinner table for 4 decades and all of a sudden they disappeared a few years ago. Ironically Keebler evolved their CLUB cracker over the years to be a near-perfect replica of WAVERLY, but not quite. So if Keebler thought WAVERLYs were good enough to copy, why weren't they good enough for Nabisco to keep on the shelves? Such a bummer.

Toastettes were a true "pastry". The crust had actual flavor and texture, and the filling was to die for. Pop Tarts are like two slabs of drywall with just a hint of "somthing" in between. I can't believe Nabisco hasn't brought them back. Of course Pop Tarts were cheapter - the quality was poor. C'mon Nabisco - give the people what they want...an end to war, a better economy, and Toastettes in every kitchen!!!

Ok Nabisco, I caught you. I have always talked about how much I loved Toastettes growing up. They were ten times better than PopTarts, although I still eat tons of PopTarts even now at age 54. I haves wished for years that I would stumble across Toastettes somewhere and I think I have. Nabisco has come out with a product called Newton's Fruit Crisps. When I tasted them a few minutes ago, I said "These are just a stale version on Toastettes.". Check them out. It's as if you left a Toastette on the counter for a few days, cut them into small pieces and packaged them under a new name. Apparently some marketing person or product manager for Nabisco found the Toastettes recipe in an old file and sort of resurrected them. Now, why don't you just do what would make us all happy and bring back Toastettes for real. That would still probably get you a promotion because you can say you listened to the customer and responded.

These were so tasty on cold mornings before school. Better than the Pop Tarts having that hard porcelain glaze on them, but I eventually would switch between Toastettes and the plain (unfrosted) Pop Tarts.

I tried to find the Nabisco pop tart today but soon found out that they were no longer available. I strongly prefer these to the Kellog version. I liked the way that they would brown up nicely in the toaster and the edges would get brown and crunchy. The sugar sprinkled across the top was wonderful. Maybe one day they will bring these back; or maybe another brand will develop something similar.

The closest thing on the market... I still die a little each time my son asks for pop tarts and I have to tell him about this magical thing that used to be on the shelves in stores next to the pop tarts called "toastettes". Oh the stories I weave about more fruit fillings and tastier crusts and the wonders of sugar sprinkled on the top instead of icing. For anyone else out there who is still in as much pain as I, I have something for you to try... NEWTONS FRUIT CRISPS They are in the cookie aisle next to the Fig Newtons and, while not our beloved toastettes, are the closest thing to them.

I can't believe this page exists. Over the years I have looked for news on Apple Toastettes and found nothing! I still remember the day in 1994 when I walked into a CVS or something and saw several boxes of my beloved Apple Toastettes on a markdown shelf. I bought all of them and couldn't believe it when they tasted the same as I remembered from my childhood. I had the same fantasy as another poster of having them fire up the oven to make a batch for me. It's the number one thing or food from my youth that I would bring back. There is nothing like it on the market, nothing anywhere near as good. Everything else tastes like cardboard next to the memory of an Apple Toastette. I agree that the flavor of the Newton Food Crisps is closest BUT it is still a hollow second place. Wow this page is great. Can anything be done? DO we have any Congresspeople in this group?

The closest thing I've seen recently to Toastette (God rest it's soul) is the Special K pastry crisps. I would swear that they used the same machine to make these - not as big as the original toastette and with a little icing drizzle instead of sugar. The pattern on the bottom is the repetitive V shape and the hole depressions on top are similar. The filling is very close to the original, I think. I think I need to get a life, but damn if I don't miss toastettes!

I miss these. I found the closest thing to them with Kroger's brand pop tarts, but toastettes were the best. I loved blueberry as a kid and strawberry later. I wrote Nabisco when they stopped making them and i was told when Kraft bought Nabisco, they discontinued them at that time and they gave me the old standard reply: We had to make some tough decisions, etc.. I think they thought Kellogg's had the market control and were afraid to try to put money into it once Kraft owned the company. Do they really have some in South Carolina? Can we get some info on this? thx.

Once again craving Nabisco Toastettes. Mondelez International Inc (NASDAQ: MDLZ) has the Nabisco line of business. Since their 973-503-3000 number was broken (i.e. could press 1 or 2 to move forward), I decided to change to a number in the 973-503-37xx series. I got a man that was nearly fearful of my call..."I can't talk to you". I simply want to be transferred to a Product Development or Product innovation department. I hear everything has a price. I'd like to know the price to get the Toastettes recipes public OR how to redevelop the product for production. It is so interesting that people from 2008-2016 are still craving this product. I hope an investor can open the door to returning these to the marketplace.

My mother and I would love to have the Toastettes back. They are a lot better than the pop tarts that we have now by Kelloggs. Please bring them back. I would be willing to pay a higher price as well for these. They are good cold as well as hot. A lot of memories for the seventies for me and my family.

I am in my 50's and still crave the Toastettes. I try to tell the girls I work with (mostly 20 Year olds) about them. There has not been anything since them in the poptart/pastry category that even compares to them. Went on line to see if they were bein sold elsewhere, am very disappointed I was unable to find my favorite breakfast food of my childhood and early adulthood. Please bring the back. Others need to experience the GREATNESS of this pastry.

My favorite was the apple. But I really liked all the flavors of the Toastettes compared to the cardboard flavor of Pop-Tarts. No matter what they did to the Pop-Tart was never gonna make me like them or eat one. Please bring them back for this 55 year old.

Hi! I grew up with a Dad who was a staunch pop tart fan and a mom who still regularly waxes poetic about her favorite toastettes. I'd love to try to re-create a similar recipe for my mom as a surprise, but the problem is that I've never tasted a toastette! I'd love some help -- I've read through the comments but haven't seen a very specific description of the crust -- is it most akin to a stiff puff pastry? More like a flaky pie crust? More like a denser croissant? Thanks for any clues and of course I'll share any successful recipe trials.

Toastettes were far better than kellogs pop tarts. I search the web a couple times a year to see if they will be brought back. No such luck.

I too was a huge fan of the toastette. It should really be no surprise that Pop Tarts won the battle of toaster pastries, even though they were far superior. We most likely have only ourselves to blame. It seems like the American consumer continues to demand lower prices on everything and expects higher quality also. Industry has been able to pull this off to some extent by becoming more efficient and mechanized but at some point prices must increase or quality decrease. Strange, but when I used to eat them, every time I ate a Pop Tart I would think of cardboard.

I loved Tostettes. As a teen I would put butter on them and bake on the oven. I would then slice thim in tiny stripped and slowly eat them. They were the best. I would live to see them come back.

We loved the Toastettes ! The Same as Many, straight out of the Toaster and put Butter across one end and Tilt it up and like a Game fill each Hole with Butter as it melted down. Of course eat the Crisp lightly burnt Edges one little Nibble at a time. Then the Yummy Center ! Love !

I remember them and they were the best. Crust was more like a warm pie crust. Reminded me of mom cooking the left over pie crust with cinnamon and sugar.

This is just absolutely incredible on so many levels. So many of us adults of all ages remembering with such fondness a silly little pastry that apparently made such an indelible impression and all these years later finding these same adults begging for some kind of answer as to why these pastries ever went away in the first place! I don't think many, if any, of us can truly understand the influence big marketing has on our food choices. I have no idea why Nabisco cratered on this, let alone why the deafening silence continues to this day on the matter, but make no mistake that they truly had the better product for that time and would surely be the better product even to this day... HANDS DOWN! I can't imagine that those in control of this product or it's marketing rights haven't heard your voices. On the contrary, I think they've heard and know quite well our mind but we'll likely never know what decisions were made to bring an end to such a loved and far superior food item. I've missed them also all these years and would dearly love to taste them once again with the relish I experienced eating them as a kid. After this long, however, I don't think we'll ever hear just what really happened, nor do I think we are meant to know either. Meaning, the decades long silence sort of speaks for itself. What a shame, a real honest to goodness shame. A market and fan club waiting to be catered to and not peep from the powers that be.

Oh how I miss these....Apple all the way every time was my fav....Please bring them back and as other people have stated I still look for them on the shelves but only see the gross Pop Tarts with disgusting icing on them...Toastettes needed no icing because that was how good they were, just like eating apple pie yuuuummmmy...We need a petition there is no comparison, not even in the same league. Thanks for letting me vent. Our children need to know what a great product this is.

Apple was my favorite. You would think after all these years, Kraft/Nabisco would bring them back to a few stores or even online for purchase.

I used to buy them by the dozen & store them. They were SO much better than Pop Tarts. The pastry was fresher, and with that sugary top (w/melted butter)! Please Nabisco, bring them back!

Nabisco should really consider bringing them back. They are so much better than Pop Tarts. I loved all of the flavors. The pastry wasn’t chalky, it was tender and delicious.

Bring toastettes back! Pop tarts does not compare to toastettes. My favorite was strawberry and I remember eating them as a child and they were the best. Nabisco bring them back

Bring Back Toastettes pastries from Nabisco!!!! they where a big part of my childhood, my dad was a sales broker for Nabisco, and had cases of it, loved all flavors. they where so go you could eat them right out of the package. in 84 Nabisco sold the recipe to a gen company, they where it out at a limited bases and then the company that was making them went out of business in the 90s and toastettes died. marketing from poptarts killed the toastette.

I've been looking for Toastettes for over 40 years-! Sometimes I look in unique off-brand grocery stores just to see if I can find them. I don't like to use the word "hate" ... but I hate Pop Tarts ...

I reminisce eating Toastettes in the 80s while at Darrell & Debbie's which is in Deer Park. I want the Toastettes to return so that I may buy them instead of the disgusting H-E-B brand.

Growing up as an Army military brat, we were raised on the Nabisco Toastettes, during the 1970s. I have searched every grocery store as an adult to find those delicious Toastettes. I remember heating them up in the toaster and spreading butter across them. I would then take the crust off them to save for last. They were delicious and I wish Nabisco would put them back in grocery stores. No pop tart could compare to a Toastette. Nabisco, please hear our cries and bring back the beloved Toastette.

Does anyone remember a toaster pastry, I don't know if it was toastettes or pop-tarts, from my recollection the late 60's or early 70's, that had an outline or imprint, like small cuts made in the pastry, of a monkey and an lion, might have been others as well, and they were filled with pudding? I think the money was chocolate. I have yet to find anyone who remembers these and I cannot find any reference to them online. It would be great if someone remembered them besides me!!

Toastettes are better than a Pop Tart. The pastry was so much better. I miss them. 😢 I agree with Robyn it would be great if they brought the original recipe back.

I remember being crushed when I read they were not going to make them any more. Toastettes were way better than Pop Tarts, it was a shame they had to dummy them up to compete. Everything seems to shrink to the lowest common denominator anymore. Dollar General brand is somewhat similar. No crunchy sugar crust but they have a similar taste and are cheaper than PopTarts too. hey are made by Clover Valley.

Yes. These are the best. Please bring back Toastettes. My husband and I were just talking about them today and both remember them as the best ever made. Why do companies always drop good stuff?

If i remember Nabisco was being sued by Kellogg for patent infringement, and when Kellogg lost soon after, a person sued Nabisco because they said they got burned by the hot filling after toasting them too long.. burnt their mouth. Person/Nabisco settled and afterwards, Nabisco said because of the cost of the lawsuits, they'd not make them anymore and pulled them. Same thing happened to Blitz gas can.. some idiot using the product incorrectly got burned.. Sued and a stupid judge, sided with the Idiot.. and the rest is history..

Nothing was better or rewarding to come home after a full day of classes in highschool and relax with delicious toastetes (blueberry my fav) and a cup of coffee. Yum! Poptarts are no substitute by far! And that superglue icing is the bummer!
