M&M’s launches Halloween treats with a crispy centre and dark chocolate coating
HALLOWEEN is nearly here and there's a brand new flavour of M&M's that's perfect for trick or treaters.
Inside the spooktacular new candies is a crisp cocoa centre, while there's a layer of dark chocolate around the outside before the crunchy, coloured coating.
The sweets themselves come in classic fall colours of orange, red and brown and the packaging features the red M&M dressed-up as a spooky vampire.
They were spotted by identical twins Marcus and Matthew who post on the Instagram account.
The pair spotted the treats in a Target store in College Point, New York.
They rated the new flavours saying: "The dark chocolate is rich and a little bitter as dark chocolate should be, and the cocoa crisp is satisfying.
"This is a definite recommend! Is it too soon for Fall/Halloween? We think not!"
This isn't the only spotting of the new flavours though, as Instagrammer also spotted a pack in Los Angeles.
Target has confirmed that the new packs will be exclusively sold and its stores, costing $3.19 for an 8oz bag.
