Dolly Parton Is Tackling Breakfast With 4 New Baking Mixes
Dolly Parton simply isn't slowing down. The iconic singer, songwriter, actress, author, and theme park owner continues to expand her brand, most recently with the release of four new baking mixes, as reported in a press release. The breakfast-based products are a continuation of Parton's partnership with food and baking supply company Duncan Hines, and also reflects her newly-inked deal with its parent company Conagra Brands.
The exciting new mixes include Dolly Parton-brand buttermilk pancake mix, blueberry muffin and bread mix, banana nut muffin and bread mix, and cinnamon swirl crumb cake and muffin mix. The hybrid mixes can be baked as muffins or poured into a loaf pan to make bread. The lineup will be released to stores across the U.S. beginning in January, Conagra has announced. More Parton-inspired food products will follow, as the food giant plans to move forward with additional baking mixes and frozen food items through the rest of 2024. Parton, who has sold over 100 million records, is excited about the opportunity to share more of her love of baking.

Conagra's licensing deal with Dolly Parton has already spanned multiple years. In addition to the new pancake and muffin mixes made in partnership with Duncan Hines, the country singer will continue to add to her collection of cake mixes and frostings under the Conagra label, which debuted in 2022. Dolly-approved chocolate and yellow cake mixes, for example, are among the products available this year. Cornbread and biscuit mixes by Duncan Hines may also be purchased via Parton's website.
