As the fall season approaches, an abundance of autumn-themed products get released and the new Pumpkin Spice M&Ms may be the most exciting treat.
M&Ms are one of the most popular chocolate treats and in the past, the brand has released other themed candies. There are Easter and Christmas-themed chocolates, and you can even personalize them. However, there is a large buzz around the release of the Pumpkin flavor.
The actual candies come in a brown, orange and green color, and other than the new spice, they're standard M&Ms. Many people love the flavor of pumpkin, and there is no doubt that these will be popular.
Until they're tried, it's tough to tell if the Pumpkin Spice M&Ms will evoke the nostalgic feelings of fall, but they're definitely something that will be worth a sample.
