Magnum Croissant

PR Campaign
Sunday 16th August, 2026

Magnum turned an ice cream croissant recipe into a shareable food trend, encouraging people to place a Magnum inside a croissant and post their reactions. The simple, unexpected combination gained millions of views and inspired creator content, brand variations and even free giveaways from a Dubai bakery.

Why it worked: It hijacked an existing croissant-flattening trend with a dead-simple, replicable twist that begged for reaction videos and mass creator participation.

The lesson: Consider grafting your product onto a trending DIY hack and seed a 15-second “try-it-now” format that invites side‑by‑side reactions.

What is this?

Every day, brands launch PR campaigns and the media covers them. We scan lots of different news sources and use AI to spot the campaigns behind the stories, and show you which ones are getting the most traction right now. Think of it as a live leaderboard of what's working in PR.

Where does the data come from?

Does this track sponsored posts, or is it earned media only?

It's built to only track earned media - we use AI to filter out anything that we think is a sponsored placement.

What does "ranked by coverage" mean?

It's the number of articles. Simple as that. We're not weighting by outlet size or reach - just raw volume. The campaigns at the top are the ones generating the most stories right now.
