Hello Kitty Cafe Truck to visit Great Lakes Crossing

Hello Kitty treats and trinkets will roll into Great Lakes Crossing next week with the arrival of the Hello Kitty Cafe Truck.

Look for the pink van 10 a.m.-8 p.m. April 21 at the shopping outlet, 400 Baldwin in Auburn Hills near the AMC Theatre entrance.

The truck will be filled with limited-edition collectible items like a giant cookie, pocket pies, stainless steel Hello Kitty Cafe thermal bottles, a macaron box set, key chains, t-shirts and other merchandise.

The truck – which launched at Hello Kitty Con in 2014 – is on tour, and will also hit Cincinnati, Chicago and other cities this spring. Hello Kitty is one of the best-selling licensed entertainment products in the world. The Japanese company Sanrio launched Hello Kitty in 1974.
