We dare you to think of a more perfect Easter combination than the classic hot cross bun and delicious M&M’s.

The team at Mars have bought back a genius new flavour of M&M’s and they’re perfectly infused with the taste of Easter. With a delicious blend of mixed spice and chocolate in a perfect bite sized treat, they’d be guaranteed to fly off the shelves.

Easter Excitement

Photos of the new M&M’s have been circulating on social media and the excitement has been next level. “Seemed like all my dreams had come true when I heard we’d just gotten a new flavour of one of my all time favourite chocolates,” wrote one Instagram user. “If you’re into sweet, milky chocolate flavoured with cinnamon and mixed spice, then these are for you!”

Not everyone is thrilled about the launch, with many saying that it is way too early to for Easter-themed items to be on the shelves. It seems like Mars is ignoring any negativity however, with M&M Eggs also launching in the UK this year.

“M&M’s is the world’s number one confectionary brand and this new treat brings a seasonal twist to everyone’s favourite crunchy chocolate,” said Mars Wrigley Confectionary CEO Chirag Shah. Who are we to argue with that?

The Easter-infused M&M’s are available at Coles now.
