# Swine-Infused Campfire Treats These Bacon S'Mores Add a Smokey Taste to the Classic Treat By Carly Foy | Published 2011-06-06 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bacon-smores References: [foodbeast](http://foodbeast.com/content/2010/03/11/craving-bacon-smores-2/) & [epicportions](http://www.epicportions.com/2010/03/09/baconsmores/) If these bacon s'mores don't get your stomach longing for the campfire, then I don't know what will. Made by Epic Portions food blogger Megan, the bacon s'mores are a delectable twist on a [classic camp treat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campfire-smores-collection). Megan substituted the traditional chocolate squares with an even more delectable treat she made herself; chocolate bacon. The chocolate bacon is then put into [homemade marshmallows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smore-speckled-marshmallow) and sprinkled with graham crackers. Megan has managed to summarize her bacon s'mores recipe, "Yeah, that’s right: Bacon S’mores. Chocolate-covered candied bacon smothered in marshmallow in a graham cracker crust." If this doesn't get bacon-loving chocoholics' hearts racing, I do not know what will. These bacon s'mores are truly the best way to combine two different, yet delicious flavors in a harmonious way. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Bacon Desserts:** An up and coming trend in the dessert industry that offers unique and savory flavor combinations. - **DIY Confections:** A trend in the foodie world that merges homemade techniques to create original s'mores recipes. - **Smoky Sweets:** A trend that adds an innovative twist on traditional dessert recipes by adding savory flavors like bacon. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry could benefit from incorporating savory bacon flavors into desserts. - **Camping and Outdoor Recreation:** The camping and outdoor recreation industry could market bacon s'mores as a unique and indulgent treat for campers and hikers. - **Confectionery:** The confectionery industry could explore the innovative combination of bacon, chocolate, and marshmallows to create unique and highly desired candies. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Overstuffed S'mores Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smores-sandwiches.md) - [Grown-Up S'mores Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smores-skillet-kit.md) - [S'mores Chocolate Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smores-chocolate-bar.md) - [Crispy Campfire Confection Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smores-pretzel-crisps.md) - [High-End Campfire Dessert Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campfire-smores-collection.md) - [Branded All-in-One S'mores Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hersheys-smores-variety-kit.md) - [Campfire Treat Sandwich Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smoreos.md) - [Campfire Cookie Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smores-cookie-bonbite-sandwich.md) - [S'mores-Inspired Dessert Ramens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dessert-ramen.md)
