Often for Valentine’s Day, M&M’s likes to convey us some new taste involving strawberry or cherry as a result of, after all, February is when these summer time fruits are in season.
Now we have had Cherry Milk Chocolate, Strawberry Milk Chocolate, Black Forest Cake, and White Chocolate Strawberry Shake. And I swear there was a Valentine’s raspberry model in there someplace, however I can’t discover it.
For 2025, the flavour is White Chocolate Strawberries & Crème. And also you could be pondering, “That sounds an terrible lot like White Chocolate Strawberry Shake.” And you’ll be proper.
I don’t have any of the Strawberry Shake selection with me, however the brand new Strawberries & Crème model tastes identical to I keep in mind the 2023 taste. The primary distinction is that Mars eliminated inexperienced from the colour scheme and changed it with an additional shade of pink. (Although inexperienced was explainable, I nonetheless thought it was an odd selection. I absolutely assist the brand new pink and crimson colours.)
So, regardless that it’s the identical, how is it? It jogs my memory of strawberry milk: creamy, fruity, and synthetic. I occur to love strawberry milk in all its fake-flavor glory, so I approve! Except for the flavour, it’s the identical white chocolate you discover in different restricted version M&M’s. In case you don’t like white chocolate, keep away, however I prefer it. (It’d get cloying if you happen to eat too many, however built-in moderation isn’t a foul factor!)
If Mars needs to rerelease an pleasing sweet with a brand new identify and an improved coloration scheme, I definitely gained’t complain. Particularly since Valentine’s sweet might be the very best factor about January and February.
