M&M's prepares for the upcoming Super Bowl with the premium Almost Champions Ring of Comfort for the runner-up. The brand turns the peanut butter candy chocolate into real diamonds. To do so, the brand heats the peanut butter to a hot 3,000°C then puts it under 800,000 pounds of pressure for every square inch to turn the sweet into graphite before it is cut and polished into shining gems.
The actual ring itself is made from an opulent 14K gold with a replica of the M&M's Orange character with a small compartment to hold a single Peanut Butter M&M. Additional details include the inscribed "Almost Champions" spelled out with diamonds with a playful "We're #2." Rounding the ring out are two orange rubies -- each one detailed with a gold 'M.'
