As the summer season starts to wind down, many of us are eagerly looking forward to the arrival of fall. With the changing of the seasons comes a plethora of delicious seasonal treats from brands like Häagen-Dazs, Trader Joe’s, and Starbucks. As the weather cools down, there’s nothing quite like snuggling up with a hot beverage to fully embrace the autumn vibes.
For my family, the arrival of fall means it’s time to break out the hot cocoa. Half of us are loyal fans of Swiss Miss, while the other half prefers to make homemade hot chocolate from scratch. This ongoing debate may finally be settled this year with the introduction of two new products that are sure to shake up our hot cocoa tradition.
M&M’s and Snickers have recently released new instant hot cocoa sticks that are set to revolutionize the way we enjoy our favorite chocolaty beverage. These hot chocolate mixes are not your average cocoa with marshmallows – they are inspired by the flavors of popular candies, bringing a unique twist to a classic drink.
The M&M’s Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa Single Serve Sticks offer the iconic colorful candy in a hot drink form. Perfect for milk chocolate lovers, this sweet beverage provides a candy-like flavor that is sure to satisfy your chocolate cravings. On the other hand, the Snickers-Inspired Hot Cocoa Sticks feature the classic flavors of milk chocolate, caramel, peanuts, and nougat in a creamy and indulgent hot cocoa format.
Conveniently packaged in individual sticks for single servings, these hot cocoa mixes are easy to prepare – simply mix the contents with hot water or milk, stir, and enjoy a warm and flavorful beverage. You can even get creative and use them in your favorite hot chocolate recipes, such as dessert dips or cocoa-infused truffles.
Each box contains six sticks and retails for around $7.95, making it an affordable and delicious treat for the upcoming fall season. Both flavors are available for purchase on Amazon or Walmart, giving you easy access to these unique and tasty hot cocoa options.
This year, I’ll be stocking up on both the M&M’s and Snickers hot cocoa sticks to add a fun twist to our hot chocolate traditions. With these new flavors on hand, we’ll be sure to enjoy cozy nights in with a delicious cup of hot cocoa that brings together the best of fall flavors and comforting warmth.
