How do I make a Cereal-Box Back?

The back of the cereal box: a maze, a word search, a cut-out mask — and your product callouts hiding inside the fun.

EXAMPLE — MADE WITH THIS EXACT PROMPT

THE PROMPT — COPY, SWAP THE BRACKETS, RUN

Vertical 4:5 photograph of a vintage cereal box flattened out and shot straight on: matte cardboard, fine CMYK rosette grain, crushed flap tabs visible top and bottom, one soft crease, early-1980s offset printing with the red plate a hair out of register. Main back panel: a cherry-red swash script headline, exactly "Big kids! Light up your mornings with this" above chunky serif caps "[BRAND — e.g. TOVI] GLOW-BOWL NIGHT LIGHT". Below, a large square photo panel in slightly oversaturated period color: the little bowl-shaped night light plugged into a wall socket, glowing a teal halo in a darkened room, a child's hand reaching toward it. Beneath the photo, a starburst reading "ONLY $1.25 WITH 2 PROOF-OF-PURCHASE SEALS", then a dotted-border mail-in order form with ruled lines labeled "NAME", "ADDRESS", "CITY", "STATE", "ZIP". Narrow right side panel: a red header band reading "[BRAND] HONEY-OAT" above a tall column of tiny nutrition-style print rendered soft and unreadable, plus a small inset photo of [PRODUCT — e.g. "honey-oat cereal pouring into a bowl"]. All display text crisp and exactly spelled. No real cereal brands or mascots, no cartoon bird characters, no barcode, no watermark.

HOW TO RUN IT

  1. Paste the prompt into Nano Banana Pro and rename the mascot, activities, and callouts for your product.
  2. Check the word-search grid at full zoom — every cell needs one clean letter.
  3. Crop-test the maze corner as a teaser frame; the activity panels double as carousel cards.
