cereal bowl

Flakes go here

A cereal bowl is a bowl sized for breakfast cereal and milk—larger than a soup bowl, smaller than a mixing bowl, with sides high enough to contain liquid.

The term sometimes appears in descriptions of portion size or in discussions of morning routines: I had two cereal bowls of oatmeal before practice.
